Having been learning all about modern day Greece in Geography and The Ancient Greeks in history, the pupils in 5th and 6th class each created a PowerPoint project on a chosen specific topic. The presentations were excellent by all the pupils. They were full of good clear, concise information along with excellent pictures and photos. The pupils also added excellent slide transitions and backgrounds to really make their projects stand out!
Well done to all the pupils!
The band “illogical” gave a fantastic performance at assembely. The band is made up of three pupils from 5th and 6th class. They will be taking part in the music competition “S Factor” tomorrow in Dunleer. We wish them the best of luck.
The pupils of 5th and 6th class had a very interesting trip to Leinster House in Dublin on Wednesday the 26th of November.
They got to experience live debates in both the Dáil chamber and the Seanad chamber.
They also had a very interesting tour of the houses and met some T.D’s.
The boys and girls also asked lots of questions on the day.
As a bonus, the pupils also had a lovely walk around Trinity College and the National Museum of Archaelogy. The pupils had a great day out!
Our Active School’s Committee has created a whole school Active challenge. The challenge is called “The Christmas Jumping Jacks Challenge”. Each class has a target number of “Jumping Jacks” to achieve over a 4 week period- ending on the 19th of December. Best of luck to all the classes!
5th and 6th class pupils really portrayed the Winter season in their artwork this week.
They made these beautiful “Winter Wonderland” art pieces.
The pupils first made the background- using various different blends/shades of blue and purple. In the second phase they tore/cut black and white card and glued it on the background to create a wintery landscape.
The pupils had great fun in class taking part in the November Comedy Championship.
We had 3 great finalists and then one truly deserving winner. Well done to J.M, the November Comedy Cup Champion.
