On the 23rd of May 4th and 5th class took a trip to Curragh Chase. This was part of the Leaf Programme which the chidlren have been participating in. They have been learning a lot about different aspects of forests and nature in general. While in Curragh chase they learned about different types of trees that grow there. They learned about the history of Curragh Chase. They got to make pendants out of wood. They learned how to fin out the age of a tree and also got to look at insects through magnifying glasses. They saw lots of different animals and learned a lot.
