Hello & Welcome to our blog!
Here at PETNS, we love reading! As part of our preparations to celebrate World Book Week, children are invited to share a photo of themselves reading a book in the strangest place they can think of!
Photos can be given directly to class teachers or emailed to [email protected]. We can't wait to see your creative photos! (Winners will be announced on 2nd March) This week we learned about parachutes. We tested different materials and we tested which was the best material to slow down a maths cube! We have been really busy learning about the weather. It has been fun learning how to present the weather and recording the weather each day!
What: Paddington (PG rating)
When: 6-7.30pm Wednesday February 7th, 2018 Where: School Hall Who: Everyone welcome Tickets: €5 (single) €10 (family) Our student council Movie Night in term 2 takes place on Wednesday, February 7th, 2018. The Student Council voted for the movie Paddington. The screening will take place in the school hall on the big projector just like at the cinema! Children are welcome to bring snacks and there will be a tuck shop selling treats on the night too. Children are welcome to bring along siblings and friends. Tickets €5 (single) €10 (family) will be on sale outside the school every morning and afternoon. Tickets will also go on sale online. The proceeds of the movie night will go towards the purchase of a school greenhouse! The greenhouse will be a great addition to all classes giving them an opportunity to grow vegetables, fruit and herbs year round. So come along and support all the budding gardeners in our school! Please read the following two links about attendance and punctuality. It's really important that the children are in school and on time for school.

We learned lots of facts when we visited the mini museum and a big thanks to Theresa for showing and telling us about her father's printing artefacts. Leo and Keelin also shared some interesting artefacts with us from Romania and France! Check out our raincoats we made for Art. We also have some great actors in our class too!Take a look at this month's theme in Rowan class!
Welcome back all after a lovely winter break. This is what Rowan class got up to during our first week of 2018! We are learning about money in Maths. We have a class shop that we are using to answer different problems in Maths. We are enjoying all of the shopping and figuring out if we can afford everything! We have been revising our procedural writing this week. Take a look at how we made bird feeders. We came up with what we needed and we followed the steps correctly! Student of the Week is ...
