Cycling courses

On Monday 21^st and Tuesday 22^nd March 2011 children from 1st class upwards took part in a cycling course in our school. Each classroom spent a whole day cycling. The children learned lots of new tricks and most importantly they learned about being safe when cycling. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed the courses and had a new helmet to keep at the end of the day.

St. Patrick's Day Parade

All children from 1st class upwards were asked to make a costume using nothing but recyclable materials. Each child brought their costume into school and had the opportunity to model it for the teachers and other pupils. The best costumes were chosen to take part in the St. Patrick's Day parade. Well done to the people who put so much work into their costumes and thank you to the parents who helped out on the day.

Sinbad and the Sea Pirates!

On Thursday December 16th 2010 the pupils from Junior Infants to 6th class travelled to the Everyman Theatre in Cork city to see the pantomime "Sinbad and the Sea Pirates." Lots of fun was had by all. Here are some photographs taken during our day out.

St. Brigid

Here is St. Brigid. Everybody in Junior and Senior infants worked together to make this picture of St. Brigid and her cloak.

The story of St. Brigid's cloak.

St. Brigid wanted to build a church. She didn’t have any land. She asked the chieftain for some land. He said “you can have as much land as your cloak can cover”. He was mean and he laughed. She put down her cloak. It grew bigger and bigger and bigger. She laughed. Now she could build a church.

Sponsored walk

On 19th November 2010, all pupils from Junior Infants to sixth class took part in a sponsored walk. We walked 3 miles approx. and lots of money was raised for our school. Pupils, staff and many parents became involved in the day and we had lots of fun! Thanks to all who contributed.

Games for a day!

On 22nd October 2010 our school took part in National Games Day. Each child brought in €2 to raise money for charity. We put a booklet together, which showed what we did on the day. We won €200 for our school as the best school in Co. Waterford! Ms. Duffy organised the day and helped us with all of our hard work! Here are some pictures of us on National Games Day:

Wizzy Wasp came to visit!

On Friday 15th October 2010, Wizzy Wasp came to visit our school! We won this Wizzy visit because we worked really hard at our exercises and we made some lovely artwork for Wizzy to see. When Wizzy Wasp came into the halla he congratulated us and he demonstrated some different exercises that we did during the programme. Wizzy gave everybody a badge and a high five to say well done! Here are some pictures from our Wizzy visit!
