Our first walk to the shop this school year. We worked hard to get to the shop. We had a target and we achieved it.
Our trip to the shop was a success. Plenty of sweets and treats were bought. A huge thanks to our local shop and Elaine for being so patient and kind.
Our School Garden
Today we began to reform our school garden. With the help of Tim the sixth class planted lettuce and cauliflower.

The sixth class will look after the school garden, help the younger classes in the school with their vegetable patches, update the gardens art work and hopefully grow some vegetables :)
Wednesday 16/03/22 we went swimming. We were so excited to be leaving school. We were even more excited to be on a bus again. Swimming was a huge success. We have five weeks of swimming to look forward to.
Sixth Class have worked incredibly hard over the past three weeks completing their projects. The children could choose any country in the world for their project. The children displayed their projects using google slides. power- points, charts and flip- charts. Each child presented their project to the class. Each project was undertaken at home. This is our second project this year. Our first project was based on entrepreneurs worldwide.
Our Spring collage took three weeks to complete. The Spring collage is an outstanding piece of art created by all of the sixth class students. It is on display in the school corridor. We creatively discussed what we would draw on the collage. Each child either drew or painted at least three times on the collage. We collaborated and enjoyed the creative process. Our Spring Collage is a credit to our talented sixth class.
There was great excitement today when Pat Spratt our GAA Coach arrived to school . The children had great fun practicing football drills and playing games. We can't wait for next week. Thank you Pat.
Beannachtaí Lá Fhéile Bríde. Today we made St. Brigid 's Crosses. We learnt all about St. Brigid and the importance of the cross.
St. Brigid’s Blessing
May Brigid bless the house wherein you dwell
Bless every fireside every wall and door
Bless every heart that beats beneath its roof
Bless every hand that toils to bring it joy
Bless every foot that walks its portals through
May Brigid bless the house that shelters you.
