About the Mayo semi-final
Bhí muid ag imirt i gcluiche leath-cheannais Mhaigheo i gcomórtas Cuman na mBunscol an seachtai seo caite. Ní raibh an bua again ach bhí an-chluiche againn. Bhain muid taitneamh mór as bheith i McHale Park.
Féach céard a scríobh beirt den fhoireann ar a mbloganna féin tar éis an cluiche:
Yesterday we went up to Castlebar for a Gaelic match. We were playing a team called Robeen. We lost but it was a great match. After the match we went to eat in a restaurant called Bosh. It was a great day but the last match for us this year. 😔😞

The girls Gaelic football team got to the Mayo semi-final last Wednesday and we were really happy. That was a big achievement for us. We were playing against this really good team called Robeen. They were really good and they beat us and I was really sad.
Then we went for food in a restaurant called Bosh it was really nice. We had good craic on the bus on the way up and the way down.

Voting in Inver
We voted yesterday on Edmodo about our preferred sweets: Iced Caramels from Ireland or Pineapple Lumps from New Zealand.

Our 1st visit from artist Kate Buckley – Junior Room
Pineapple Lumps vs Iced Caramels By Amy
Iced Caramels vs Pineapple Lumps
On Friday when Kate Buckley came to our school she brought two different sweets, Pineapple Lumps and Iced Caramels. Iced Caramels are sweets that are sold in Ireland and Pineapple Lumps are sweets that are sold in New Zealand.
Pineapple Lumps actually don’t taste like pineapples at all. They taste like bananas. Pineapple Lumps are covered in chocolate. They taste quite foamy and chewy. The banana taste is very strong.
Iced Caramels are quite sweet. They are hard on the outside and soft on the inside. On the inside there is caramel. The caramel is very sweet.
I liked both Iced Caramels and Pineapple Lumps but I think I preferred Iced Caramels!
The End!

Kate Buckley – the artist
Kate the artist
Last Friday, Irish artist Kate from Co. Cork, but living in New Zealand, came to our school! She was telling us about life in New Zealand. It is very similar to life here in!
The children from Haast School in New Zealand sent over some photos, a kiwi (but it was a toy), a pukeko a New Zealand bird (but it was a puppet), a few letters and a packet of Pinapple lumps the brilliant New Zealand sweets! They were really nice, and I’m really happy I got to have a taste of one!
The only person sixth class called Ernest, sent Shannon and Myself a letter, and now we are going to send a letter back to him!
I really enjoyed learning about New Zealand with Kate, and I can’t wait until we do art with her!

A Blog On Kate ☺️👩
I am writing about a woman called Kate Buckley who came to our school. She came from New Zealand with a big parcel full of stuff that we yet have to look at! She was at a school called Haast School. She was over there for a week to see what it’s like. Then, she decided to introduce us to them by mail and we sent over pictures and Ireland flags to them. And in her parcel, is all the stuff they sent over to us! They made us a huge card with a picture of all the pupils in the school (there are only 17 pupils!) and the scenery of the town. We got to know all of their names and what they wear as their uniform. She showed us lots of pictures and they were all so lovely! Also, they made us try their favourite sweets called Pineapple Lumps 😀 Then, we ate our own popular Irish sweets called Iced Caramels. We had to compare the both of them on a sheet.
Another thing in her parcel was two teddies of their two popular birds. The Keewee bird and the Pukeko. They were beautiful birds! 🐦 It’s great fun learning about a school on the other side of the world! And they are excited to get to know more about us! Kate is coming tomorrow to tell us more information and she is doing art with us! Hope you enjoyed reading about this! ✋

Kate Buckley
(Tógtha ó blog Shauna).
Inniu tháinig bean (Kate Buckley) go dtí mo scoil. Is ealaíontóir í. Tháinig sí ón Nua Shéaláin. Bhí muid ag caint faoin scoil i Haast. Beidh sí ag teacht go dtí ár scoil ar feadh cúpla seachtaine.
Ní féidir liom fanacht go dtí Dé Máirt mar beidh sí ar ais agus beidh sí ag déanamh ealaíne linn.
The End
Le Shauna. 🙂 🙂 🙂
