A pilot comes to visit!


There was great excitement in the classroom this week when we had a visit from a pilot named Fiona, who flies for Aer Lingus. She told us all about what it was like to work as a pilot, how to fly an airplane and lots of other interesting things that we didn't know about working on airplane. She said steering an airplane was a bit like dancing, so Mr Kennedy reckoned there were a few people who would make good pilots in our class! She also said that if you work hard in school you could become a pilot, so make to sure to keep up the good work in school everyone.

Trying out the controls!

A big thanks to Fiona for giving up her time to come in and see us.

We also made our very own airplanes in the classroom this week. Have fun making them fly at home!
