We discussed how best to make the shakers and what we needed. We listened to the different shakers and how they sounded depending on how much rice or past they were filled with. Afterwards we decorated our shakers. ]]><![CDATA[Well Being Week]]>Sat, 30 Nov 2024 12:21:44 GMThttps://www.stpaulsjns.ie/ms-kenny-1st-r12/well-being-weekWe enjoyed many activities this week, among our favourite working with the boys and girls in Room 8.

We raised lots of money for our school with our sponsored Witches Walk. We loved walking in our community showing off our spooky costumes. 
Our Parents Association had some games for us to play and a goody bag - thank you.
Next, we went to the Hall for our concert. We sang our spooky songs and had lots of actions with each of them, Well done to the children for performing so well.
