Dear Parents and Guardians/A Thuismitheoirí agus a Chaomhnóirí,
Wicked
We were absolutely blown away by the talent shown by all of Kate’s 6th class in their stellar performance of Wicked. The standard of writing, singing, dancing, acting and stage management was phenomenal, watch out Broadway! We have never had a performance quite like it in Glasnevin ETNS’s 23 years! Maith sibh!
Well done to Timmy in 2nd class with this excellent piece of homework incorporating science and art and to his lovely assistant Senan.
☘️Seachtain na Gaeilge 2025☘️
Míle buíochas do Aoife agus Aoife!
We have had a really busy week this week for SNaG. We had great fun
• learning Seannós dancing with Tura
• Comórtas ealaíne (art competition)
• Toraícht Taisce (scavenger hunt)
• And a Céilí Mór and we’re not even done yet!
There is a great buzz about the school this week; we are so proud of the effort that the children are putting in to use their “cúpla focal”
Tomorrow we will be having a whole school Ceolchoirm (concert) to showcase the amazing talent in singing, dancing and music that we have in our school.
Freisin, be sure to wear green tomorrow for our Paráid Glas (Green Parade) to finish off Seachtain na Gaeilge with a bang!☘️💚 Aoife & Aoife

Parent Volunteers Needed
We hope to begin some sowing and planting at school and would love if some parent volunteers were available to help weed and prepare the raised beds. You are welcome to come during the school day, please check in at the office first. We have some tools available here or bring your own. It would be great to get the beds ready by the end of March. Email the school at [email protected] if available with School Garden as the subject.
Many thanks! Sorcha
