Some of our senior school students took part in the inaugural cross country athletics competition between the local schools in the area. Thank you to Clongriffin Athletics Club for organising a great day for us all!
Well done to our boys football team who played very well in their group matches. They were narrowly defeated in their last group game, which ended up being their final game.
Mr McCourt’s 5th class had a great day at the Fighting Words workshop in Behan Square learning about the process of creative writing. They all worked collaboratively to produce a wonderful story titled, Amir Versus McAlister the Frog. Sounds like a very intriguing read!
Our Junior Infants have had a great first month in school. They were so excited on their first day of school
Ms Dowling’s 3rd class enjoyed a lovely morning learning about nature and the wonderful environment around us. The Biodiversity workshop was filled with really fun activities for all of the children. They were identifying leaves, collecting feathers, learning about different birds and they each have a nature notebook to keep a record of any changes in the coming weeks. Well done to all the children on receiving a class certificate for all their hard work.
Mr Gallagher’s 4th class spent a lovely Tuesday morning participating in collaborative drawing with award-winning children's book illustrator, Tarsila Krüse. Thank you Tarsila, the children really enjoyed it and their drawings are fabulous!
