Seachtain na Gaeilge 2025!

Bhaineamar an taitneamh as Seachtain na Gaeilge i rang a trí. Bhí tráth na gceist againn sa rang. Rinneamar a lán ealaín íontach, mar shampla seamróig le cailc. Le aghaidh Lá glas agus an ceolchoirm, rinne na páistí i rang a trí "An Haka Gaelach". Bhí siad ar fheabhas! Rinne na páistí a ndícheall chun a bheith ag caint as gaeilge gach lá agus bhuaigh cúigear páistí sa rang "Gaeilgoeoir an lae". Maith sibh gach duine i rang a trí! 

We really enjoyed Seachtain na Gaeilge in third class. We had a quiz in the class. We did lots of wonderful art, for example shamrocks with chalk. For Lá Glas and the ceolchoirm, the children in 3rd class did the "Haka Gaelach". They were brilliant! The children did their best to be speaking some irish every day and 5 children in the class won "Gaeilgeoir an Lae". Well done everyone in third class!

Talent Show 2025 - 3rd Class

 On Tuesday February 18th, the Student Council held the Monivea NS Talent Show for 2025. Here are the participants from 3rd class who were fantastic. We had singers, dancers, comedians and rubix cube expert solvers! The boys and girls did brilliantly up on  stage in front of the whole school and showed some great talent! Well done to all who took part! 

Friendship/Anti Bullying Week 2025

This week is Friendship/Anti Bullying week. We have been discussing this topic as part of our Stay Safe programme over the past few weeks so this week we did some revision and completed some activities to summarise our learning.

We discussed what makes us a good friend to others and creating lovely friendship flowers to identify these qualities. 

We also identified what we think makes a good friend, and completing a cutting and sticking task to do so.

Lastly, we worked in groups to brainstorm and write up a "Class Agreement" to highlight and agree on what we will and will not do to ensure that no bullying takes place in our class. 

We have learned a lot and are ready to put everything into practice so that we can all be happy and safe in our class! 

Internet Safety Day 2025!

 STOP! BLOCK! TELL! 

In third class we have been learning rules to stay safe online and ways to deal with cyberbullying!

1. Stop - don't reply to unkind messages.

2 Block - block the sender.

3. Tell - tell an adult you trust about anything that makes you feel unsafe online. 

Today we also read all about Safer Internet Day. The theme this year is "Protecting yourself and others from scams online". We discussed the positive aspects of using the internet but also the importance of following guidelines to keep ourselves safe online!

Christmas Art in 3rd Class!
