We had a very active day at school today to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day! All the children have been learning Irish and Céilí Dancing for the past week or two and all the new skills learned were put into practice as the children took part in their céilí. We also held our annual parade on the school yard, accompanied by our brilliant musicians. Lots of art and crafts went home, as well as certificates for Seachtain na Gaeilge Well done everyone! All in all a great fun day at school today. Click below for photographs and videos.

As part of our Green Schools Project on Biodiversity, all of our pupils are learning about planting. Our 3rd & 4th Class pupils are very eager in their project work.
The pupils in Junior & Senior Infants brought their favourite books to school today for World Book Day. They showed their books to the class and told everyone what their book was about and why they chose it. Senior Infants completed a book review and drew their favourite illustration from the book.
We also designed our own bookmarks and cut them out when we were finished.
Our weekly GAA training sessions continue with Donie from St. Naul’s GAA & LGFA Club. The children of 1st & 2nd Classes are, as always, enjoying learning new skills.
