Knitting

Ms Moore has started knitting classes with all the 2nd classes. The aim is for each child to knit a square which will then be sown together to make a blanket. Although knitting can be difficult to grasp straight away, most of the children (and teachers) are finding it very relaxing!

Cake Sale

Our annual cake sale took place in the school on Friday 9th of February. It is always a great event in the school calendar and certainly didn't disappoint this year. All donations of buns, cakes, slices and treats were greatly received by our fantastic Parents' Association and helpers on the day. Every class had a chance to come to the hall and pick their goodies. Many thanks to the very generous €2 donations from the children. The grand total of €1125 was raised.

St Brigid's Day

The 1st of February not only marks the first day of Spring but also it is when we celebrate St Brigid's Day. In school some of the classes made St Brigid's crosses while others coloured in beautiful pictures of her cloak.

Ceili Dancing Show

The second class and senior infant children have been participating in Ceili dancing classes since September. This month they got to perform their dancing skills in front of their parents at a special Ceili dancing show. They were all fantastic and so were those parents that got involved at the end of the show. Well done everyone.

The junior infants and first classes have now started their Ceili dancing classes. Here's Mrs Adderley's junior infants having their very first lesson.

10 @ 10

It's a new year and that means new resolutions. This year each class is going to try and do an extra bit of exercise each day to keep us fit and healthy. Therefore we have started doing the 10@10 in association with RTE's Operation Transformation. Each morning we watch it on the board and follow along with the exercises. You can do it too at home...it only takes 10 minutes.

Dublin GAA Ladies visit

For the first time ever in our school we had a special visit from The Brendan Martin Cup, which was won by the Dublin GAA Ladies. They fought a tough match against Mayo to come out on top.

We are so proud of our Dublin ladies and the Dublin men's GAA football teams. They are a great inspiration for us all here at SS Peter and Paul's and teach us the importance of exercise and a healthy diet. Hopefully in the future some of our pupils here today will be bringing the cups back to visit us.
