Thank you Miss O Donohoe
May 18th, 2022We have been very lucky to have had Miss O Donohoe with us for the past 10 weeks on her final teaching placement. She has been an integral part of our school since early March teaching, singing, playing and helping out with many different school occasions. We have learnt so much from her and had a lot of fun along the way. We wish her the very best in her future career and know that she is going to be amazing

Huge work was put in by all the teachers and children in the school in preparation for this special day. They all looked beautiful and did the school and their families proud.
School Garden
May 15th, 2022The weather has been perfect for gardening and the children have been out and about planting and weeding. We have planted beans, salads and lots of vegetables and are looking forward to a bumper harvest. Thanks to our resident gardening expert Ale for always taking care of our garden and teaching the children so much about growing their own food
House Cup
May 13th, 2022Congratulations to Ravenclaw on winning the house cup today. Points were awarded throughout Miss O Donohoe’s placement for correct homework and well done work in class, participation in class and overall good behaviour. Well done everyone!
Special Visitor
May 4th, 2022The children in both rooms had a visit from one of our school parents, Nicola Kilroe, Advanced Paramedic with the National Ambulance Service. Nicola spoke to the children about her job and how they can help make it easier for her by knowing how to call for emergency services and and knowing their eircodes. We had a tour of her car, got to try out some of the equipment and even got to ring the siren. Thanks very much Nicola!
