Buddy reading with 5th/6th

3rd and 4th class worked very hard on their own individual projects. Each pupil chose a topic they were interested in and created amazing presentations using Google slides, Book Creator, or homemade posters. It was fantastic to see such creativity, independence, and pride in their work. Well done to all!

Bhí spórt agus spraoi againn ag ceiliúradh Seachtain na Gaeilge i mbliana. Glach na Naíonáin páirt i dtóraíocht taisce le rang 5/6 trí mheán na Gaeilge. Bhí lá glas ar fud na scoile le péinteáil aghaidhe agus ceol. Bhí rang 5/6 ag blasadh agus ag tarraingt plandaí seamróige. Maith sibh go léir!

First and Second class had great fun taking part in hurling/camogie sessions. The children learned lots of new skills and had so much fun each week.

Our school came together for a joyful End of Year Assembly to celebrate a fantastic year. We took time to reflect on special memories, share summer plans, and look back on everything we’ve achieved this year.

Pupil of the Year awards were presented in each class, we had some students who were recognised for 100% attendance, and the winners of the Pearce Callaghan project competition in 5th/6th class were announced. We also had our first ever Sportsperson of the Year for a very well deserving young man.

We had a spook-tacular time celebrating Halloween. We had pumpkin carving, projects on the festival of Samhain, traditional games and the most creative homemade costumes. Oíche Shamhna shona daoibh!

Throughout the year, Junior and Senior infants have taken part in Buddy Reading with pupils from 5th and 6th class. At the beginning of the year, the older pupils read aloud to the infants, helping to build confidence and enjoyment in reading. As the months went on, the younger children made great progress-and by the end of the year, some were able to read books to their buddies in 5th/6th!
