BECAUSE OUR DIFFERENCES ARE WHAT MAKE US GREAT
March 21st is World Down Syndrome Awareness day and the day is marked by people wearing mismatched socks. We invited all the pupils and staff to wear mismatched socks to school – ‘Because our differences are what make us great’. Ryan and Alana came to school with rice krispie buns for everyone which were made by Ryan and Alana, with the help of Mum Paula and sister Amy. Thank you for the lovely treats!
As part of our Active School Flag process, we invited a coach from our local GAA Club, St. Naul’s, to come along and provide coaching in gaelic football for all classes. As you can see from the photographs, the children had lots of fun while learning new skills. Thank you Donie!
All the pupils came to school today wearing green in readiness for the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations! Lots of fun for everyone as they made their St. Patricks Day artwork!
As part of our Active School Project, we decided to run a ‘Christmas Mile With A Smile’ on our last day of school before the Christmas Holidays. All the children were feeling very festive in their Christmas jumpers and hats!
The children were all very excited on the last day of school to see Santa himself coming in for a visit! He gave a gift to each child and told them he would do his best to bring them what they wanted for Christmas! Great fun all round, followed by Assembly where there was plenty of singing and prizes given to various classes.
All the children in the school took part in our Christmas Nativity 2018 – ‘Straw & Order’ – a battle for the stable between the cows and the donkeys! The children and staff had great fun putting this nativity together and we hope everyone who came to see it enjoyed it as much as we did!
We had a great Christmas here at the school with plenty going on! The Polar Express came to town with an elf version of each pupil on board! This was on show in the GP room where we held our Nativity Play for all the families on 21st December. The children worked very hard on the shows and we hope everyone enjoyed it.
On the last day of school before Christmas Santa came to the school with a gift for all the children! We are very lucky here at St. Naul’s because Santa visits us every year!

Yesterday we held our Book Fair at the school. This was a great chance for the children to buy their favourite books and for the parents and guardians to come along and support the school. The school will earn commission on all the books purchased at the fair and we will now be able to buy new books for the school. Thank you so much to all the parents, guardians and grandparents who came along on the day to buy books. We are very grateful for your support.
