Gach Sathairn, éiríonn mé ar a deich a chlog. Itheann mé mo bhricfeasta. Tar éis an bricfeasta tosaíonn mé ag sugradh le mo mhadra, Ruby. Nuair a criochnaíonn mé ag sugradh, teann me go dtí an siopa. Cheannaíonn mé an paipear agus milseáin.

Nuair a tagann mé abhaile tosaionn mé mo jabanna. Tar éis tamaill féachann mé an teilifís. O am go ham tagann mo cháirde go dtí mo theach. Sa trathnona teann mé agus mo chlann agus mo mhadra ag siúloid.

Is maith liom an Satharn.

Niamh

Mo breithla a bhÍ ann agus bhí an lá go brea. Bhí me trí bhliana deag daois. Chuaigh muid go dtí an sú. Bhúail mé le ma chairde sa sú. Ar dtús chonaic mé na dobhareach. Bhí sé mór agus bhí fiacla mór aige. Bhí se ag snamh agus ag súgradh san uisce.

Ina dhiaidh sin chonaic muid na leon. Bhí an leon ina codladh faoin gcrann. Bhí an tiogar ar an gcrann ag féachaint ar na leon.

Thatin an lá go mór liom.

My Room

My room is relaxing,
It’s cool and it’s fun,
And when I’m not working,
It’s where I can come.

It’s my comfort place,
It’s where I sleep,
It’s my own space,
At my own pace.

Arklow Bay

The sun shines on the park
Where the children laugh and play
Swans glide in the waves
On a glorious summers day
All the people nice and friendly
Walking down by Arklow Bay

Sailing

I get a great buzz out of sailing
I find it extremely fun
The wind in my face is refreshing
I forget all my problems they’re gone

When I get a good speed it’s amazing
The sails stand strong in the wind
The wakes from the boat go crashing
The excitement is always “brilliant”

You know by the weather when summer has arrived. Blue skies, warm breeze and the sun beating down on your face. All the trees have their leaves and it's a sea of green in the garden. The flowers are at their peak and they're full of colour and life.

Just before the end of the school term, we go on our school tours. It's great because we know that the second year is nearly over. We get longer lunch times and P.E. as much as possible during school in the summer.

The weather is hot enough to put on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. You can also put on a pair of togs and go down to the beach for a nice refreshing swim. When you do finally come out of the water, it's nice just to sit on a rug on the beach and have a picnic of sandwiches, crisps, drinks and of course ice cream!

Summer starts in May and it is very very hot. There are lots of school tours for the classes in our school. There is summer camp for the children and lots of children go to them each summer. The best thing about summer is that the school term is over. Lots of people go swimming in Traught and build sandcastles and have picnics. Some people park their caravans down in the field next to Traught
Beach for the whole summer.
