The children have been busy getting ready for our Craft Fair. They have been making and designing Christmas decorations and doing plenty of baking! Thank you to everyone who came and supported our fundraiser. It was a great success! Huge thanks to O’Tooles for the Fabulous Christmas trees and everyone who donated to the raffle.

We had a lovely time visiting the Nursing Home and the Community Care to do some Carol Singing. Wow!! Were they impressed with us! Well done everyone!!! We also raised money for The Children’s Health Foundation by running a Christmas Jumper Day!

Merry Christmas to all, from everyone in All Saints’ National School.

We have been very busy celebrating Science Week, Anti-Bullying Week, World Kindness Day, Clean Air Week and taking part in the Active Schools Challenge : Active Break Everyday!

The children were treated to a trip to the cinema to see “The Wild Robot”, a novel the children are reading in the Senior Classroom. We would highly recommend both book and movie!

Dance with Becci – 2manydancemoves.

The kids are having so much fun with Becci learning different types of movement and promoting the theme of inclusivity and diversity – learning a dance to “This is Me”.

We had a super fun day celebrating Halloween with music, dance, quizzes and some old traditional Halloween games. The children enjoyed making chocolate apples and Ms. Doyle’s yummy hot chocolates. Happy Halloween everyone!

Wow! The children had so much fun for Maths Week and Code Week! We went on math trails, created shapes from nature, stem challenges, joined a math quiz and made our own computer game!! Just have a look.

Many thanks to the PTA for our outdoor chess/draughts board. The children are loving it!

September has been a busy month! We made the most out of the weather at the start of the month by visiting the playground.

Best of luck to our 6th Class pupils who embark on a new chapter in their lives. We wish them every success and happiness in their future education.

The children have had great fun the last few weeks with a trip to Avondale Tree Top Walk, a visit from some amazing birds, trying to make bubbles bounce, soccer blitz and much more!!! What a lovely summer term we are having!

Congratulations to all the candidates who made their confirmation last weekend and on reaching this significant milestone in their lives. Embrace this gift of confirmation with joy and let your faith shine brightly in all that you do.

The children joined Kilcommon National School for their school tour this year in Fort Lucan. We were blessed with the weather and the company. Would highly recommend taking a trip there over the holidays but remember to bring spare clothes. The water slides went down a treat! Thank you to Kilcommon for asking us to join them! Everyone had a fantastic day.
