Happy New year to everybody! I hope you all had a lovely break. 

Just a quick note to say there won't be any homework starting until Monday 11th.

Our theme for the next two weeks is Toys. As part of Junk Art in Aistear we will be making toy boats, and testing them to see if they sink or float. I will have some material, however if the children would like to bring in any additional material from home to design their boat in class that would be great. 

Also, in history we will be exploring old toys and new. If there are any grannies or grandads (or parents!) that would like to come in to talk to the children about toys in their childhood it would be greatly appreciated and very beneficial for the children. 

Thanks,

Julie
