Green Schools Walk for Water

On Thursday April 6th we took part in the Green Schools Walk for Water. This is part of our work towards our Green Flag for Water.
We watched a video which showed how women and girls in Ethiopia have to hike up hills twice a day to collect water. This water is not even clean, it is contaminated. Here in Ireland we take our water for granted. In some countries they are not so lucky.

We celebrated World Book Week in St Clare's last week. There were lots of activities going on all around the school. We read Revolting Rhymes in class. We went to Eason's with our World Book Day tokens, and got a free book. We did paired reading with 1st class Room 5. We took part in a Monster Book Swop on Friday, where we all went to the hall and got to choose a book to take home. We also designed our book marks. We had a great week, and read a lot!!!
