Matisse Cut-Outs

Posted on January 20, 2012 by Miss Murtagh (Senior Infants)

Today we looked at some of the work by the artist Henri Matisse. Then we made our own pictures by cutting out shapes, like those used in his art, and sticking them onto coloured paper. This link will bring you to an interactive activity called Matisse Cut-Outs. http://www.pbs.org/parents/creativity/sensory/matisse.html

Christmas Assembly

Posted on December 21, 2011 by Ms. Melvin

Christmas cheer was the order of the day in Culleens as all classes performed for Assembly. We had great renditions of “Awayin a manger” “Happy Birthday Jesus” “Jingle bells” “Cloiginí na Nollag” Na hArd Rí and ” Wise Men Three” from the Junior end. The Senior end of the school performed “Silent Night” “Santa Claus is coming to town” “Joy to the world” “The 12 days of Christmas”. We were also ” Rocking around the Christmas tree” and we finished off with” Merry Christmas everyone”. So there should be no shortage of performances to share with all our relatives and friends over the holidays. Happy Christmas and Happy New Year from all in Culleens.

Banana Milkshakes

Posted on December 13, 2011 by Miss Hallinan's Class (2nd)

Last week we were reading about recipes and looking at “bia” in our Irish too. In our Lift Off book there was a recipe for banana milkshake. So we had to taste some…….

Thank you to Eamon Joyce for supplying the straws and milkshake cups. They were delicious.

Have a look!

Saint Lucy

Posted on December 13, 2011 by Miss Hallinan's Class (2nd)

Today on our Advent journey we remembered Saint Lucy. Saint Lucy is  the patron saint of those who are blind. Today we decorated some glasses and made them look really cool.

Our research question is to find out the name of the writing that blind people read.
Clue: It begins with “b”
