Planting Trees
Planting Trees

Around two weeks ago Declan and Jim from Coillte came in the morning and talked to Mrs McCallig’s class and Mr O’Donnell’s class. We went outside and they taught us about all the different types of trees like the Birch, Oak and the Rowan tree. Jim and Declan taught us how to plant the trees with a special spade and then we planted a couple beside the yard. Some of us even got to name the trees after themselves. The 5th and 6th class pupils even got to take a tree home and plant it at their house.
