Junior & Senior Infants run laps of the playground every morning to wake us up and keep us fit and healthy. We also do jumping jacks and crossover exercises to warm up first. Always a good start to the day!

Pupils School Cycle

The children took part in their annual school cycle yesterday – in between the rain showers! The children from Infants up to 2nd Classes took part in cycle activities on the school yard and the carp park during the course of the day, while the older children in 3rd-6th Classes cycled to the Warren beach in Inver. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t allow for time to stop for long at the beach before they had to make their way back to school!

Our thanks to Sean Gallagher who organised the cycle to the beach – helped by Enya, G

race and Lauren. It is always good to see past pupils helping out at the school when needed – thanks girls!

The weather decided that it was not going to cooperative with our  plans for outside activities on Thursday, so all our activities took place in the school hall. We held various events, including a skipathon for the 3rd & 4th Class pupils!
