Seachtain na Gaeilge 2025

Bhí an spórt againn i rith Seachtain na Gaeilge. Bhaineamar an taitneamhach ag damhsa sa chéilí agus ag canadh na hamhráin traidisiúnta. Bhí gach duine ag déanamh iarracht cúpla focail a rá.

Book Week

Book Week and Dress-Up as a Character from a Book

As we get ready to celebrate Book Week this week, we are appealing for donations of books that your child may have outgrown. Spring is an ideal time to sort through and donate any used books to us, and on Friday, we hope that every child will be able to receive new books. We have collection boxes in each classroom, ready and waiting for your donations.

Across the school, we have planned a number of activities for all our pupils. Each child will be encouraged to bring in their favourite book, and also to share a photo of their favourite place to read. The highlight of our Book Week will be on Friday, when everyone is encouraged to dress up as a character from their favourite book.

Grandparents’ Day

We just want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you for a wonderful Grandparents’ Day on Wednesday. The whole day was filled with joy, happiness and lots of emotions. All the Grandparents and special guests had a lovely time visiting the classrooms and spending time chatting over a cup of tea or coffee and cake in our School Hall. We also remembered all the Grandparents / guests who could not be here today through our dedicated Sacred Space. To our amazing staff, míle buíochas. Your dedication and hard work meant the day was both meaningful and memorable. An enormous thank you also to our prefects who enjoyed using their clipboards, as they escorted visitors around the school. To our wonderful PTA and parent volunteers, your support and enthusiasm added a special touch to the day. Thank you for looking after the grandparents and guests so well. Umpteen cups of tea and coffee were made!! Finally, to our incredible pupils, thank you for your super displays, classroom work and most importantly your lovely warm smiles which brightened the day for all the Grandparents and guests.
