scrúdú ghaeilge gach seachtain

Every Friday, as part of our morning tests, we are introducing Irish dictation sentences. The sentences will encompass things that the boys have encountered in Irish class and will focus on verbs, sentence structure and commonly used words. There has been no mutiny yet and it seems that the boys are enjoying the challenge! When you are signing the test copy each week, have a look to see what the sentences for the week were and how the boys are coming along ☘

Smoothie making

We made smoothies today using our hero ingredient: spinach! There were so many different combinations, colours and tastes as the boys experimented with different ingredients such as; mango, avocado, berries, bananas, yoghurt, pear, apple etc... We agreed that the smoothies tasted only ok compared to the smoothies you buy in the shops which are full of sugar and taste much nicer! We said that smoothies and juices should have one third vegetables in them to be really laden down with the antioxidants and vitamins and minerals that we need. Have a look at some of our lovely smoothies!
