We were delighted this morning when Santa decided to pop in to the school to see everyone. He very kindly brought all the children a little gift and reminded them all to be kind. Thank you Santa!
The children have been working very hard over the past weeks on their performance of the Christmas Nativity. Mrs Gavigan and Mrs McDaid, as always, put together a great show, with the assistance of the whole school staff. A great turnout of family members came along for both shows, finishing with our annual Christmas Hampers Draw organised by the Parents Association. A great end to 2023 – well done everyone!!
The pupils of 3rd & 4th Classes were constructing boats using different materials during Science Week 2023.
As is normal practice every Friday, the whole school took part in GAA training with Donie from St. Naul’s GAA. This week, however, things took a spooky turn as all sorts of characters turned up to train! Our thanks as always to Donie for being such a good sport!
3rd & 4th Classes were learning about electricity and magnets. They completed a series of experiments – some of which were hair raising!!
The pupils from 3rd & 4th Classes came to the Infant room and helped us to play maths and phonics games on the iPads.
3rd & 4th Classes are completing the planets of the solar system for Science Week!
A treat for everyone today at school as Master O’Donnell organised for the ice cream van to come along!
