Eimear and Caroline's class had great fun during Seachtain Na Gaeilge and getting ready for St Patricks Day.
Laura’s junior infants have had some very special guests in over the last 2 weeks. Two of our parents came in to read in Polish. They read Na Końcu Tęczy and Wiewiórki Które Nie Chciały Się Dzielićy. Some of the children in the class shared their knowledge of the language and helped us to learn lots of new words and phrases. Bardzo dziękuje!
Scott has really enjoyed all these stories. Thank you to all the parents for sharing your time.
What a great idea! I really like this book about squirrels ❤️
Assembly pics today
Apologies for late post. We had 2 lovely Assemblies again today. Sinéad's & Sharon's classes entertained us all with their Siamsa. In the picture of the Students of the Week & Gaeilgeoiri na Seachtaine from Jun Assembly we also have 2 children from each class who did really well in their running this week. Some of them didn't want to stop running! We were in such a hurry to get out to the fantastic Olympic Handball final that we didn't get to call out the Students of the Week etc for Senior Assembly, but they were celebrated in class. Well done to all and have a great weekend.
Following on from our hugely successful basketball tournament last term, this term we enjoyed an Olympic Handball tournament which ran over the last month. Over 150 children from 3rd to 6th class took part. Today we had the highly anticipated final between Kerry and Kilkenny. It turned out to be a very competitive match, with Kerry just winning in the end! Well done to all involved! A big thank you to Laura for organising and to all the teachers for refereeing matches at lunch time. Our tournament for next term will be our soccer World Cup which everyone is already looking forward to.
Well done to all involved, Tana was upset he had to miss out today .

#WorldBookDay
A reminder that we have purchased books in many languages other than English for our library. Thanks to all the parents, children and staff who made suggestions. We tried to get as many of them as we could. Thanks also to the parents in the library for cataloguing them and to the PPLI for the grant scheme. #LanguagesConnect
Marlena's 2nd class had a wonderful time exploring the Art Exhibition and creating our own art at the Carlow Visual today.
Congratulations to Henry from second class on winning the Sustainability Challenge. He recieved a prize from Carlow IT and we were visited by Adriana, a scientist working on bio plastics. She left us a little experiment for the class to carry out and also some science kits. Well done Henry.
Laura’s Junior Infants had a special visitor in today. One of our parents came in to read Pinóquio in Português. He even baked cookies and taught us some new words in Portuguese. It was a great afternoon! Obrigado!
Margaret's class have been learning all about Spain and Christopher Columbus. They made fantastic ships 😁
Eimear and Caroline's class went on a nature walk today looking for signs of spring. They had great fun.
World Book Day March 2nd
This year for World Book Day we are going to try something new. The whole school is going to read the same book during the month of March. We have chosen Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak. This is a much loved book that can be read at many different levels. We have a class set of the book and each teacher will work with her/his class on the book at some point during March. We hope to create a display of all the different reactions to the book at the end. This is a lovely book to read with your children, with fantastic art in it. Every library will have a copy or you can listen to it on YouTube. Enjoy! #WorldBookDay .
A classic. We have it at home. Simone will be very familiar with.
Haven’t read it, looking forward to it 😊
Assembly today
We had very nice assemblies today, with Margaret's 1st class doing a great job of entertaining us with the Hokey Pokey as Gaeilge. Well done to all the Students of the Week & Gaeilgeoiri na Seachtaine. An especial congratulations to all the children who took part in the South East Schools Orienteering competition in Kilkenny. We are very proud of how well they represented our school, with some amazing times achieved.
We’ll done all 🙌🙌
