In January, our class learned about World War 2 and how children in Britain lived during the war. We were surprised to learn that a lot of food we eat today was rationed during the war such as sausages, bacon and eggs. Families had to make meals using only a few ingredients that were cheap to buy. To understand exactly how children in Britain lived, we made Cheese Pudding, which was a popular dish during the war. It was easy to make and surprisingly tasty!

Have a look at our competition entries for Russian Festival week. Our illustrations are of Russian folk tales- The Snowman, the Hut, The Giant Turnip, The Wild Geese, The Brown Bun & the Goldfish - and are in the style of famous Russian artist Kandinsky. We had some very exciting visitors to Scoil Maelruain yesterday when Michael Darragh MacAuley and Eamonn Fennell from the Dublin Senior Football team dropped in with the Sam Maguire cup! They gave us lots of tips and answered loads of our questions about the All Ireland Final and G.A.A. Check out all our pictures with the cup! In December we held our annual Christmas Concerts. There was huge variety from plays and poems, to Irish dancing and the choir singing pop songs and carols. The Nativity was performed by Ms Flood’s class, Ms Carty’s did a Haka ‘as Gaeilge’ and we had a beautiful chime bar piece from Ms Biesty’s music club. Well done to all the children and teachers who worked so hard to put on a fabulous show. 3rd/4th class Concert 5th/6th class Concert Irish Dancers and choir
On Monday 12th December the School Choir performed at the Hallelujah Concert in the RDS. We sang with over 1000 school children from all over Ireland, conducted by Gearóid Grant. We also were backing singers for Irish group The High Kings, young singer Connie Talbot and singer Randolph Matthews. The choir sung their hearts out and danced the night away, a great night was had by all. We have not packed our Santa hats away yet! We hope to perform a few of the songs at the School Christmas Concert on Wednesday 21st. Looking forward to seeing you there. Many thanks to Ms Walsh and Ms Biesty for their help and support. Well done to all the choir members involved. There is a short clip below of some of the children singing at the concert……..the quality is not great but you can feel the excitement!
