Junior Infants
Look at all of the clever boys in room 4 Junior infants. We are all best friends and have fun everyday in school. We love keeping fit and love learning in fun ways. We have been busy getting our fingers strong so we can hold our pencils correctly. We know so many letters of the alphabet now and their sounds are helping us to read. We are doing paired reading now with our buddies in Mr Finnegan’s class. We love reading to our buddies, our buddies love reading to us. School is so much fun.

Kali @ Mount Sion Primary School
Click read more to check out our video. Kali Sikaran is a martial art which belongs to a family of martial arts from the Philippine Islands. It involves the use of 2 to 3 ft sticks which can be used singularly or as a pair. When using the sticks in a pair, we explore simple drills called ‘Cap Cas’. These involve holding a stick in each hand and tapping the sticks against those of your partner in a predetermined pattern. It looks very easy but it takes a lot of hand eye coordination. As coordination improves so does the difficulty of the Cap Ca, ensuring the student will always feel challenged.
