Saint James’s Primary School Cleanest Classroom Champions December 2014
Don’t we look happy Mammies, Daddies and Guardians?
We won the Cleanest Classroom Competition in December and we are working hard to do well this month!
We are working hard to get points by putting the right rubbish in the correct bin. We also make sure our floor is tidy and that we bring home all our lunch in our lunch bags.

Our classroom bins. Yellow is for general waste. Orange is for recycling paper.
Our orange bin is our recycling bin. We only put paper in this bin.
We love recycling and having a tidy classroom!
We are learning about ancient Rome. Everyone in our class is busy working on their project. In a few weeks we will be ready to present our projects. Did you know that people used to fight to death in the Colosseum? It’s now one of the most popular tourist attractions in Rome.


Welcome to our class blog. We cant wait to share our news with you all! Hurry back for more.
As Spring is the time of growth, we decided to do a little planting! We learnt all about how plants grow and what they need to survive. After this, we got some plastic cups, compost, sunflower seeds and water and planted our very own Sunflowers.
We will look after them every day and hopefully the sun will shine enough to make them big and strong!


Take a look at our beautiful St.Brigid’s Day pictures we coloured. We thank St.Brigid for Spring Time. ![image[6]](http://www.saintjamessps.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/image6-225x300.jpeg)
Run run as fast as you can you can’t catch me I’m the Gingerbread Man… We learnt about the story of The Gingerbread Man. For Golden time we decided to make our own. We were afraid the Gingerbread Men would hop out of the oven and escape!! We made sure we ate them straight away!
Ms. McGoey helped us with our recipe and brought in an electric mixer. We had great fun using it.
We learnt new words-Recipe, Ingredients, Mixture, Electric Mixer, Dough, Timer.

We really enjoyed baking and hope to do it again soon.
We are delighted that it is finally Spring Time! Lets hope the weather gets better! In the meantime we painted beautiful daffodils in hopes that the weather will improve! See our paintings…
