The week before St Patrick´s was a very special week for our students, thanks to the work of some teachers of the different subject boards. Lots of activities about Ireland were developed by means of normal maths , geography, science, chemistry, music, technology or English lessons about diverse aspects of Irish culture and way of life or by an exciting gymkhana by which our students had to prove their knowledge.
The first three hours were time for working in class: Irish prehistory and fauna, what the Giants´ Causeway is, how to make a fluid density rainbow or to sing a U2´s tune. They were different, more dynamic lessons where our kids could enjoy more special activities like singing, learning about legends or doing an actual experiment.
Then, after the break all the ESO1 and ESO2 had the chance to face the challenge of our St Patrick's Gymkhana: they had to prove their knowledge about legends, try a map puzzle and even dance a popular Irish reel.
