Teacher for a Day
4th class had an opportunity to be teachers for a day and participated in a fun 'teach the class' session with their teacher. It was great to do some role reversal!! Pupils taught Irish Dancing, Music, soccer history and much more!
Junior Infants 2025
Introducing our fantastic new Junior Infants 2025 from our mainstream and ASD class 👏👏👏.
We are so proud of how well they are integrating into primary school life!! We have baked rice Krispie buns, made Lego structures, learned lots of songs and rhymes as Gaeilge and Bearla and are learning all about our school and parish this week 💪.
Well done everyone 🥰🥰

ASD class visit to the Pumpkin Patch:

Science Week
We had another great week of Science experiments, investigations and discussions this year as we participated in our annual Science Week celebrations. Infants pretended to be doctors and nurses and investigated their bones and xrays, while other classes created their own experiments and tested out some well known scientific theories. The week finished off with 5th and 6th class hosting a science 'exhibition' morning, where classes participated in experiment stations making bubbles within bubbles, comparing slopes of different gradients, constructing floating plasticine boats, reaction testing, finger print testing and much more! A massive thanks to 5th and 6th class and Ms Gill who co-ordinates and leads our Science Week.
