Fanore National School - News

Children in both classes are fortunate to have 5 weeks of fundamental movements skills classes with Ellen facilitated by Tubber Tigers.

Fanore School was honoured to be chosen as one of the schools invited to perform in Ennis as part of Fleadh Nua celebrations for a 2nd year in a row. They featured on Clare FM radio to promote their concert earlier in the week and performed a mixture of songs and tunes from around the world with Kilnaboy N.S. A fantastic achievement for our small school!

Lots of collaboration and teamwork making a jigsaw of the map of the world in the junior room this morning!

Children really enjoyed our bike workshop with Pat to celebrate Bike Week.

2nd class celebrated their First Holy Communion at school by baking rhubarb and strawberry cake with Anu using produce from our school garden. It was so tasty every slice was eaten before we could get pictures!

Congratulations to our 2nd class who made their First Holy Communion this weekend.

Happy May Day! The children learned all about Irish customs associated with May Day and created their own May bush!

The gates are down!! Amid great excitement, we set foot on our new playground for the first time today. Even the rain and wind couldn’t dampen our spirits. We look forward to much fun and games in our wonderful new facility

We are celebrating World Book Day in Fanore with lots of fun activities; reading partners, story time, dress up and even some toilet roll art depicting favourite book characters. Well done everyone for some fabulous costumes!
