Dear Parents and Guardians/A Thuismitheoirí agus a Chaomhnóirí,

As part of children’s mental health week, 6^th class had a class breakfast on Wednesday morning.  The children made a huge effort and brought in lots of delicious breakfast treats and many even did some home baking! We had pastries, pancakes, French toast, sausage rolls, fruit and lots more! A great morning was had by all!  Padraig

5^th class made Victorian style Arthropod displays for their clay arthropods.   We really enjoyed these science and art lessons and learnt a lot about the classification of arthropods along the way.  Sylvia

Sylvia’s 5th class paid a visit to Emma’s junior infant class on Wednesday.  They taught us all about circuits.  It was not only informative but very exciting. Emma

Daniel’s Junior Infants were super excited today during Science! Special guests from Sylvia’s 5th class came in to teach us about circuits and how they work! 💡 we had great fun! 😃

Clara, in Kathy’s 3^rd class, giving us a beautiful, improtu performance of the song  ‘A Million Dreams’ from the Greatest Showman to finish off our day on a high note.  Kathy’s
