Last week, 3rd Class attended a virtual award ceremony for the STEPS Young Engineers Project with Engineers Ireland that they participated in earlier this year.
Everyone received a certificate for their participation and hard work on their group projects.
Well done 3rd 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!
Last week, some members of this year’s Green School Committee attended the Green School Awards Ceremony at The Helix in DCU, where they joined many other schools in celebrating the collective effort and achievements of the Green Schools programme.
We are proud to have earned the Green School Travel Flag for our school!
We look forward to proudly displaying the flag as a symbol of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and greener travel choices.
A huge well done to our Green School Committee and the entire school community for their hard work and dedication throughout the year.
We celebrate over 30 nationalities in our school!!!

Before the Easter break, 6th Class visited Matthew Wilkinson’s Art gallery in the city centre. The class enjoyed hearing about the paintings and about how a commercial gallery operates.
They then visited the Garden of Remembrance to see the statue of The Children of Lir.
A wonderful day out and thoroughly enjoyed by all!
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!
Junior Infants planted some lettuce seeds before Easter. The class made sure the flower bed was weed free and gave the seeds plenty of water.
We are all looking forward to eating the gorgeous lettuce in the summer term!
Thank you Junior Infants!
As part of the An Post initiative, our students participated in a heartfelt activity where they wrote letters to their future selves.
Each child reflected on their current experiences, offering advice and sharing hopes for the future.
They posed thoughtful questions, wondering about their dreams, challenges, and personal growth.
This engaging exercise encouraged self-reflection and allowed students to express their aspirations, creating a meaningful keepsake to revisit in a year to come.
We can’t wait to see how their thought process has evolved over the year!
3rd Class had a busy week last week. The class took inspiration from the beautiful blossom tree in our yard to create their very own blossom trees in art.
They really enjoyed spotting them in the local area and on the way to the Secret Garden too! They also spent time planting sunflowers!
