Easter Wreaths
Easter doesn’t fall on the same date every year because Easter is always on the first Sunday after the first full moon that follows the spring equinox. We were delighted to welcome Stephanie from Heritage in Schools to explain the moon cycle and to help create these beautiful Easter Wreaths.

Marbling Art Easter Eggs

Easter Art Webinar

Easter Bunny Art
The children in the Senior Room have been experimenting with our new water-colour pencils while creating some wonderful Easter Bunny art. Water-colour pencils are a medium that combines drawing with painting. When you add water to a watercolor pencil drawing the pigment spreads over the paper to imitate the look and feel of a watercolor painting. Working with these kinds of pencils is a great way to experiment with colors. The children gave the water- colour pencils a big thumbs-up and are looking forward to exploring their use in more detail in future art projects.
Easter Art
There are signs of spring all around us in nature. The children in the Junior room have been busy creating the Easter symbols of new life – Easter eggs and Easter chicks. We are all looking forward to a visit from the Easter bunny.
The Easter Bunny was very busy at Togher N.S. He dropped Easter eggs for the children in the Junior classroom and Easter eggs in the school grounds for the Senior pupils. All the children had great fun searching and they were truly delighted when they found the items left by the Easter bunny.
We are sad to say he didn’t leave anything for the teachers!
Easter Bunny
The Easter Bunny called to Togher N.S. and left chocolate eggs for all the children. The children were delighted to find their mini eggs during the Easter Egg Hunt.
