Wizzy Wasp came to visit!

On Friday 15th October 2010, Wizzy Wasp came to visit our school! We won this Wizzy visit because we worked really hard at our exercises and we made some lovely artwork for Wizzy to see. When Wizzy Wasp came into the halla he congratulated us and he demonstrated some different exercises that we did during the programme. Wizzy gave everybody a badge and a high five to say well done! Here are some pictures from our Wizzy visit!

We exercised for Wizzy Wasp!

Our school took part in the Wizzy Wasp four week programme during the months of September and October this year. All of the children, parents and teachers became involved and took part in a range of activities. Here is an example of some!

Swimming for Wizzy Wasp

Every week for five weeks we go to Clonea swimming. This is part of our Wizzy Wasp daily activities for an hour. We enjoy every minute of swimming with our fellow classmates. We have a great time learning all the different ways of swimming. There is a class for people who can’t swim and those who can. Our swimming instructors make it easier for us to learn and enjoy every minute of our swimming experience. After our swimming lessons we have a great time playing in the shallow end.

Football for Wizzy Wasp.

Every day at school most of our class mates play football at break times. Which are between 11 o’clock until quarter past 11 and half 12 until 1 o’clock. First we pick our teams and make them fair. Then we pick our goal keepers and put people in their positions that they are best at. Our usual goalkeepers are Mairéad and Joshuah. We all take turns of taking forty-fives, kick outs and frees. If someone misses a point or goal we just say hard luck better luck next time. We have great fun playing football. It’s not about winning it’s about teamwork and having fun. Our teacher is very kind and lets us use the Gaelic football.

Cycling for Wizzy Wasp

Every day some people go cycling to school. It is a very fun sport and it is enjoyable to do. It is an exercise we do for Wizzy Wasp. It saves money and petrol by cycling and not going in the car. We normally go cycling in school. Lots of people in the school like this fun sport. When you go cycling you should always wear a helmet and if it gets dark you should also wear a reflective jacket.
