Junior and Senior Infants had great fun today doing circuits with the pupils from 5th & 6th Classes.
The pupils of 5th & 6th Classes were delighted to see how our tadpoles are progressing. We now have froglets!
Inland Fisheries Ireland visited the school recently to teach the pupils a little bit about fish, water, angling and the environment. After a presentation given to the 5th & 6th Class pupils, everyone got a chance to have a look at the various fish! As you can seen from the photographs, everyone from Infants all the way up to 6th Class was very interested in Something Fishy!
We had to collect some river water for our tadpoles this week. Master O’Donnell pulled on the wellies, ably helped by Ethan and Gavin!
The pupils of 5th & 6th Classes did some colouring work with the Infant Classroom this week.
The firemen from Donegal Town Fire Station kindly came to the school to talk to the children about fire safety.
We had a very active day at school today to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day! All the children have been learning Irish and Céilà Dancing for the past week or two and all the new skills learned were put into practice as the children took part in their céilÃ. 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.

Some of our pupils baked and iced cookies today at school – well done boys, they were delicious!
The children from 3rd-6th Classes made a much welcomed return to The Diamond in Donegal Town today as the school took part in the carol singing organised by Donegal Town Business Focus Group. Mrs McDaid, as always, was the choir leader and the children represented the school excellently. Well done to all the boys and girls who took part, and thank you to Donegal Town Business Focus Group for the treats for the children after they had finished singing – much appreciated!
5th Class visited Junior Infants this week and read them stories. They also helped the Infants to make jigsaws. Everyone worked really well together.
