The school were delighted to be represented in the Féile Fichille Chess Tournament today in the Abbey Hotel in Donegal Town. All of our pupils represented the school excellently and had a great day out. Our thanks to Mr. McDermott for organising this.
Barry Doherty of the Flood Risk Management Department of the Office of Public Works came to the school today to show the children a fun Lego catchment model to explain flood relief strategies.
We had a special little visitor to the school today as Fionn and Odhráns Daddy brought in a spring lamb for the children to see. Everyone was very excited to see the lamb. Our thanks to Seamus for taking the time to bring it in.
The pupils of 3rd and 4th Classes are doing a Spring Bud Race, using buds from native and naturalised trees in Ireland.
We are continuing our Say Yes To Languages program. Everyone is really enjoying it!
The children of 3rd and 4th Classes did some Spring planting in our poly tunnel.
We checked our compost today to see how we are getting on. With lots of Spring planting going on we need to be sure our compost is good!
Today we were delighted to welcome our Spanish Tutor Vivian to the school to start our new ‘Say Yes To Languages’ Programme. Vivian will be here for ten weeks teaching Spanish to the pupils of 3rd-6th Classes. Everyone is off to a great start!
Today in the 3rd & 4th Classroom we made St. Brigid Crosses. A skill that the children enjoyed learning.
