Goodbye 6th Class!

Last week we said a big goodbye to our 6th Class who are now on their road to Secondary School. It was lovely to have each and every one of them with us on their John Scottus journey.

We wish you all the very best in your future schools.

May you brighten their corridors as you did ours.

Go n-éirí an bóthar leat.

Junior Entrepreneurs in 5th Class!

Congratulations to 5th Class who recently took part in the Junior Entrepreneur Programme! 

Their smoothie business was a big hit – students across the school loved the tasty strawberry and mango drinks, especially as they got to enjoy them in the sun

 To add to their success, they made a profit from their investment, which they were delighted with.

 A fun, sunny and successful experience all around!

Congratulations 5th Class!

Music Genres In 4th Class!

Last week, 4th Class embarked on an exciting journey through the world of music as preparation for Music Week! 

The class engaged in a captivating project that focused on five distinct music genres: jazz, classical, rock, hip-hop, and folk. 

Through collaborative research, the children explored the historical and cultural significance of each genre, uncovering how these musical styles have evolved and shaped societies. 

They also delved into the unique musical qualities that define each genre, including rhythm, melody, and instrumentation. 

We can’t wait to see what you bring to Music Week 4th Class!
