Seachtain na Gaeilge celebrations:
We had a great celebration for Seachtain na Gaeilge, culminating in our Lá Glas assembly celebration. The students enjoyed many activities 'as Gaeilge' during the week, including Bingo and daily 'Gaeilgeoir an Lae' awards.
Presented by 6th Class:
As a fitting celebration of International Womens Day on March 7th, our 6th Classes exhibited their projects on inspiring women. Over the morning they presented them to the rest of the school. The younger students really enjoyed learning from them.

As part of Catholic Schools Week we celebrated Grandparents' Day on January 22nd. It is our third year running this event and it is getting bigger by the year. We were delighted with the response from grandparents to our invitation. We had an informal reception for them in the hall before they visited the classrooms. Once again, this event was a huge success and further strengthens our ties with our community.
This year Arts Week took place from the 13th to the 17th of January. We had special guest teachers for music, drama and Zumba, in addition to all of this, we had a return visit from the renowned storyteller, Niall De Burca. We also had an art competition, with the theme ‘Our Favourite Things’, with a prize in each class.
The week finished with a whole school Zumba during yard time. It was led in turn by each class group and was enjoyed by all, as you can see from the photos.
Our Christmas plays took place this week.
