World Cup Day 2014

Put your flags up in the sky
                 And wave them side to side
                                    Show the world where you're from
                                                     Show the world, WE ARE ONE!


Finally, IT'S HERE! The FIFA World Cup 2014 has kicked off today in Brazil and we sure got into the spirit of things today in school! 

Ireland didn't qualify to play this time but not to worry as we had our own team draw in class, so we are each supporting one of the 32 countries playing in the World Cup. We have been working really hard researching our country and today we displayed our projects with pride, along with our jerseys. 

John, our FAI coach, spent the day in our school, so we got to play a game of soccer ourselves, in the glorious sunshine. It was like we were in Rio! 
(We can dream, can't we?!)

A HUGE thank you to our wonderful parents for baking goodies and tasty treats for us today. We were stuffed heading home to get ready to watch the opening ceremony on tv. 

Olé! Olé! Olé! Olé!

Enjoy the next month of games, everyone. We can't wait to see who wins!




It's never a bad day when we get a delivery of fabulous buns first thing in the morning! :)


 Mini pizza time
 Popcorn chicken and twisty fries were on the menu too!
 Getting hungry waiting...
 Thumbs up from this gang!
 That's more like it!
 Stuffing our faces!



How talented am i? Just look what I cooked...pizzas and yummy brownies!
 Tasty stuffed peppers and olives
 These gorgeous mini buns went down a storm
 So did this sweet coconut rice dessert

 
 It's not a party without rice crispie buns!
 Some crackers to nibble on and a homemade tasty cake...fabulous!
Check out the delicious and creative buns I made last night!
 I brought in some spicy spring rolls and pizzas! You can never have enough sweet chilli sauce! 
 Yum! Yum!


Here we are supporting our country that we drew for the World Cup!
