As part of history and procedural writing in English, the senior room interviewed their grandparents/older family members about games they played growing up, wrote the instructions, and the class enjoyed playing the games with each other!
The senior room had an action packed day for their school tour. First starting in Killaloe at the West Lake Aqua Park, onto Limerick for some arcade games and bowling at FunWorld, and finishing with a tasty meal at the Hungry Lyons!
This year’s Teddy Bear’s Picnic was a great hit among all the children to mark the end of 1st class’s Time to Talk programme with Ms. Coyle. Many thanks to Jay and Mary- Gordon for organising a surprise a ice cream van for the kids!
6th class really enjoyed taking part in the Get Up Stand Up Transition to Secondary Programme as part of their circle time with Ms.Coyle where they looked at many different aspects of secondary school life.
Happy Father’s Day to the hard working dads in our school community!
Many thanks to Gordon D’Arcy for facilitating a fantastic field trip along the beach and dunes of our Fanore Beach. The children really enjoyed it and learned so much about their local area. This was funded by the Heritage Keeper’s Programme.
The children explored water safety and how to keep our beach clean today. 
Each year the children produce a piece of writing to celebrate John Joe Scanlon and enter into a competition for the John Joe Scanlon Memorial Cup. This year the children produced travel brochures on Fanore highlighting all the wonderful aspects of their local area. An outside adjudicator evaluated their brochures and 2 runners up, 2nd place and the overall winner was announced. Congratulations to all!
Congratulations to our Girls Football team for making into the county final once again this year in Cusack Park! Although the result didn’t go their way it was an amazing achievement to get to the county final. Many thanks to Múinteoir Mary for her hard work and dedication in organising and coaching the team. A special mention to Suzie, who was our caption for the blitz!
Today, the children in the junior room went to the Burren Nature Sanctuary for their school tour. We had great fun feeding the animals, visiting the fairies and playing in the playgrounds.
