Last Friday, Shona O'Dowd from Seashore Safari, Marine Explorers came to visit 4th Class. Shona gave an excellent presentation about the animals and plants living in the waters around Ireland. She brought in some items such as 'mermaid purses' and seaweed for us to look at.
Afterwards we took a bus to Rosses Point to explore the rock pools on the beach. Armed with nets and buckets, the children set about discovering what they could find. They had lots of success, finding different kinds of seaweed, crabs, shells amongst other things. The sun shone and everyone had a great day.
