Witches Potion

The children in first class made a really spooky witches potion!

First Aurelia added lots of vinegar to the cauldron...

Next, Natalia added in the washing up liquid.

Daniel added the food colour. We picked a spooky green colour!

Email is stirred the potion for us.

We all helped Katie say the magic words before the bread soda was poured in.

After we said the magic words the potion fizzed up!!!

We really liked making the witches potion!

If you would like to try make the potion at home, here's how....

250ml white vinegar

1 spoon of washing up liquid

4-5 drops of food colouring

5 spoons of bread soda

Enjoy making the spooky potion!!

Halloween Fun

We had lots of fun for Halloween in Múinteoir Sinéad's class. We opened the spooky treasure chest and found lots of Halloween treats and spooky costumes.

The children all dressed up in spooky costumes on Friday.

We played fun Halloween games like "pass the pumpkin".

We searched a spooky cauldron for "tricks" and "treats".

The whole school had a great costume parade to show off our spooky costumes.

The boys and girls made a witches potion too!

Robert even found the ring in the barnbrack!

We had SO much fun celebrating Halloween in Múinteoir Sinéad's room!
