CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE CHILDREN IN 2ND CLASS WHO MADE THEIR FIRST HOLY COMMUNION TODAY (MAY 18TH). THANK YOU TO MS. CONNOLLY FOR HER SUPER PREPARATION OF ALL THE CHILDREN AND TO THE PARENTS ASSOCIATION WHO ORGANISED A LOVELY GET TOGETHER FOR THE CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES IN THE SCHOOL AFTERWARDS.
EASTER COLOURING COMPETITION
An Easter colouring competition for all pupils was organised by SISK, the company building the houses at the back of the school. There were three prizes of easter eggs for each class. Congratulations to the winners.
GLOBAL WARMING WARNING MARCH
On May 3rd we all marched through the village chanting and dressed in ways to bring an awareness of global warming and how it is impacting on the environment – causing changes in weather conditions across the globe and affecting our own lives and that of all species on earth. Pupils painted t-shirts, created banners and posters and wore colours associated with the environment and the heat being created by global warming. Thanks to the GSSC and Mr. Moore who organised the event, to the Gardai for escorting us on the walk and to all the parents and guardians who joined us. Watch out for photos in local newspapers in the next week or two – we had three photographers with us!
GREEN FLAG NUMBER 7!
We are so proud to announce that we have been awarded our seventh green flag for Global Citizenship & Energy. We worked for two years to achieve this and are so delighted with our success. Well done once again to the GSSC and Mr. Moore who led the way and to all pupils and teachers for their hard work and support. The awards will take place on May 30th.
