Junior Infants are learning lots about the continent of Africa in Aistear. The children set up markets, played with African animals in small world, built some homes, created beautiful artwork and even went on their own safari to the Secret Garden.
It was a great adventure with lots of exploration and fun!
The Girls hockey team scored an easy three points with a walkover on Tuesday. The team would have much preferred to play the game. They continue their unbeaten streak going into their final fixture on Thursday Feb 22nd against Our Lady of Mercy.
All support welcome!
Senior infants continue to learn and explore house and homes in Aistear and are currently designing their own lighthouses.
They have also been learning about and playing with the number 8 and they took some time to draw 8 of their favourite things.
Gr8 work Senior Infants!
Last week, 5th & 6th class girls won their match against Guardian Angels National School making it two wins from two games! It was a super game and lots of experience was gained by the team. Final score was 4:1.
Wishing the team the very best of luck against St Brigid’s Cabinteely this afternoon! Break a leg team!
2nd Class sent Christmas cards to people in the St Anne’s unit in Castlebar Hospital and they have each received thank you cards in response! They are so grateful to receive the cards and that their kind gesture was appreciated by people in need.
A big go raibh maith agaibh to all the pupils from 2nd to 6th class who took part in this year’s Multiple Sclerosis Ireland Readathon! 273 books were read by 57 children, and the total raised for MS Ireland was €1,601!
Well done and congratulations to everyone who participated!
Throwback Tuesday!
Before Christmas, our 2nd-6th classes had a talk from a parent of the school, speaking to us all about the importance of being safe online and how to treat others.
It was well received and we all learned something!
That’s a wrap!
We’re going to leave you with this gloriously festive post.
4th 5th & 6th Class raised money for charity singing Christmas carols on Dawson Street and were joined by 2nd & 3rd Class for more carols on the school steps when they returned. It certainly got us into the festive spirit!
We hope you have a long and restful break and we look forward to welcoming you all back on Monday the 8th of January.

Check out our new jerseys!
The charity sponsorship on the front is Neurodiversity Ireland, a wonderful charity promoting Neurodiversity and inclusion of neurodivergent kids and young people in Ireland.
So many thanks to one of the parents who donated these to the school.
Thank you 5th class for modelling the jerseys. Super stylish!
