Lá Glas/Seachtain na Gaeilge
We really enjoyed celebrating Seachtain na Gaeilge and Lá Glas. Congratulation to Charlie, Emily, Sean, Grace and Sadhbh who were our Gaeilgeoirí an Lae. We learned a number of Irish songs throughout the week including 'Amhrán na bhFiann'. We had fun designing posters based on Irish seanfhocail and we learned the dance 'An Dreoilín'.
World Book Day
We really enjoyed World Book Day celebrations at school. We spent time reading a variety of picture books and talked about our favourite books. We visited the hall for story-time with Mrs Lewis.
Games time
We have enjoyed playing logic games and puzzles over the last few weeks including Swipe Out, Cornered, Square Up and Shaperize. We also learned how to play Draughts.
Indoor hurling
We have been practising our hurling skills in PE using mini hurls and tennis balls. We practised carrying and balancing, throwing, catching and striking skills.
Fisheries Demonstration
We recently had a visit from Inland Fisheries Ireland where we learned all about the different species living in our inland waterways. We were able to examine some of the insects under a microscope and got to hold some of the fish.
Christmas Performance
We had great fun rehearsing and performing our Christmas nativity play over the last number of weeks. Thanks to all the parents and grandparents who attended our performance. We hope you enjoyed the show.
