Lá Glas

Chaith na bpáistí go léir éadaí glasa ar scoil le haghaidh Seachtaine na Gaeilge. Bhreath siad ar fad iontach ina n-glas, bán agus oráiste. Bhí ceolchoirm ceoil traidisiúnta Gaeilge againn sa halla. Tháinig beirt mban isteach agus d'imir siad amhráin álainn Éireannacha ar a n-ionstraimí. Bhí se spraoi iontach agud bhíomar go léir ag bualadh bos and ag canadh chomh maith.

World Book Day Character Dress-Up Winners

We celebrated World Book Day on Friday, March 9th. All pupils were invited to dress up as their favourite book character. The standard was fantastic and great effort went into all the outfits. They showed great imagination and reflected our fantastic love of books in SS Peter & Paul. A winning costume was chosen from each class & then an overall school winner was chosen by Mrs Frayne. 

The overall school winner was Hazel Mulvaney who dressed up as Gangsta Granny from the David Walliams books. 

Well done to all the winners. The school enjoyed ten minutes of reading for enjoyment at 11am and took part in various book related activities throughout the day. It was certainly a day to remember!

Seachtain na Gaeilge

Seachtain na Gaeilge 1ú- 17ú Marta

Bainimid an-taitneamh as Seachtain na Gaeilge i mbliana!
We are celebrating Seachtain na Gaeilge this week and promoting our national language with a Seanfhocail art competition, tráth na gceist, amhráin and dánta. Each day two pupils from different classes will deliver a daily ‘Aimsir’ report as Gaeilge on the intercom for the whole school. Our celebrations will finish on Thursday 15th with our Lá Glas (green day). All pupils are encouraged to wear green, white and orange and will enjoy a class concert in the hall. We would encourage parents and children to try and use a little Gaeilge at home as much as possible.
Go raibh maith agaibh.

Recreate

We have been very lucky to welcome Fiona from Recreate to come into our school for art sessions with the 2nd class children. 
Recreate is a social enterprise making art materials and educational supplies accessible and affordable to the community for all kinds of creative purposes. 
The first task was to build the tallest free standing tower using the resources in the Recreate tool box. Next the children could make whatever they liked with the materials, using tape, glue and scissors. The children also made mosaics and fun felt pizzas. 
Everyone was so creative- there were pencil holders, robots, castles, football pitches and lots more. It was so much fun!
