We will be learning all about transport for the next two weeks and our new Aistear topic is 'The Train Station'. Some of the words we will be learning are: train station, train driver, schedule, ticket master, platform, single ticket, return ticket and carriage.

The children will be learning all about the different types of transport so you can take a look at some of these types of transport and chat about what they could be used for!
