3rd Class completed reading their novel, Charlotte’s Web. The class celebrated by having a Charlotte’s Web-themed day!
They completed beautiful art work and play scripts which showcased their favourite part of the story. The highlight of the day was watching the movie Charlotte’s Web in class. Then they compared and contrasted the book and movie!
2nd Class have been getting their hands dirty & planted lettuce and spring onions in the Secret Garden. There was lots of teamwork and they have enjoyed watering and taking care of the plants each day too.
Hopefully we’ll get to enjoy them with our lunch in several weeks!
Thank you 2nd Class!

5th Class did a fantastic job selling all their cupcakes last week as part of the Junior Entrepreneur Programme! With their businesses “Create Ya Cupcake” and “B.L.F.T. Lemonade”, customers pre-ordered cupcakes and lemonade and then collected their orders. It was a tasty opportunity to support young entrepreneurs!
Well done 5th class on a very enterprising and successful endeavour!

Excellent work 4th Class!
1st Class adopted green fingers as they planted some radish seeds in the Secret Garden! They had great fun preparing the flower beds, planting and watering the seeds.
We are very excited to watch the seeds grow over the next few weeks and we hope to enjoy the radishes as part of our lunch soon!
Last month some students and parents participated in a Spring Clean. Cleaning from the former Israeli embassy all the way up to the school.
Well done and thank you to everyone who participated! It certainly looked a lot cleaner along Northumberland Rd and the school this week.
The girls played against St. Matthews last month. The team was up against a very strong side. At halftime the score was 3.0 to the opposition. The team worked tirelessly for the rest of the match but sadly St. Matthews took the win 4.0.
A huge congratulations to the team for coming so far in such a short period of time and a big thank you to our opponents for the opportunity.
Last month, Junior infants started learning about weight in maths. ⚖️
They worked in pairs and explored the classroom for items that were heavy and light. They engaged in lots of maths talk.
Nice work Junior Infants!
