Maths Week – Problem Solving Winners

Junior and Senior Infants

We painted pumpkins and made bales for our Autumn Aistear theme.

1st and 2nd Class

We learned all about the life cycle of an oat tree. We collected lots of Autumn leaves and learned how to identify them.

3rd and 4th Class

We learned all about the Dutch artist Piet Mondrian. He is best know for his abstract paintings. We used colours, shapes and textures to create these beautiful pieces of artwork.

5th and 6th Class

We created personalised t-shirts based on the work of artist, Piet Mondrian.

Well done to all of our pupils who continue to follow our new routines. Keep up the great work!

Junior Infants – 1st day of school!!!

The infant room will design and paint some lovely fairy doors for our school garden.

During this difficult time, the children of Kiltealy N.S. have been working very hard at home.

The staff want to say a huge well done to all the boys and girls for keeping up with their school work even though it must be a little challenging at times.

We have received lots of photos over the past few weeks and it is clear to see that the children of Kiltealy N.S. are so talented! We knew that anyway!

They have been doing their school work and their projects but they have also tried out certain activities that we wouldn’t get to do in school!

From Easter egg hunts to climbing mountains, from cooking dinner and baking to painting, gardening and DIY! They have learned lots of new skills at home that they will use throughout their lives so keep working hard, keep helping out at home and keep learning new things!

Have a look at what the boys and girls have been up to…
