Seachtain na Gaeilge

Seachtain na Gaeilge

Bhaineamar an taitneamh as an tseachtaine seo le go leor imeachtaí gaeilge – ag damhsa, ag canadh, ag scríobh, ag caint, ag tarraingt, lá glas agus ag éisteacht le grúpa ceol traidisiúnta ó Coláiste Bhríde! Bhí siad go hiontach! Féach ar ár bpictúirí:

We really enjoyed learning all about engineers. Look at the engineering we done in our school! The children showed great teamwork and co-operation skills. Well done engineers!

World Book Day 2024

World Book Day 2024

Many thanks to the TY pupils from Coláiste Bhríde for visiting us on World Book Day and creating a fabulous Table Quiz for our Senior Room. They had a great time and well done to our 4th Class winner!

The excitement of dressing up as our favourite characters truly made World Book unforgettable. Have a look at the meticulously crafted costumes and how the children and staff showed off the traits of some of their beloved literary figures. Thank you to everyone for taking part! Here’s to many more adventures to come!

Leap Year Celebrations 2024

Leap Year Celebrations 2024

We planned a great day for the kids to celebrate Leap Year 2024. We wanted it to be a day to be remembered as all the pupils in the Senior Room will have moved on when the next leap year comes. We wrote a letter to our future selves which will go into a time capsule that we will bury, we went for a visit to the playground and we watched a movie with our favourite teddies and treats. The older pupils have promised to return on 29th February 2028 to dig up our time capsule and have a reunion.

Ireland Reads Initiative 2024

Ireland Reads Initiative 2024

We enjoyed reading books this week to celebrate Ireland Reads. Thank you to the Senior Pupils for reading and listening to their younger friends. There was fantastic reading and even better discussions! It was a lovely treat and a pleasure to watch. Well done everyone!

Children’s Mental Health Week 2024

Children’s Mental Health Week 2024

We all enjoyed some fun, stress free activities this week to raise awareness of the importance of taking care of our mental health. By prioritizing children’s mental health, we create a supportive environment for them to thrive and reach their full potential. Just take a look at how engaged and motivated the pupils were learning chess, making stop motion videos, creating with Lego and planting some vegetables. We can’t wait to see our Hyacinth Flowers grow and the roots they will have! Children’s mental health is a vital aspect of their overall well-being

Saint Brigid’s Day Celebrations

Saint Brigid’s Day Celebrations

We had a lovely time visiting out local library to hear Aisling play the harp and tell us stories of old about the fairies in Ireland. The children in the Senior Room learned all about St. Brigid and made St Brigid’s Day crosses to hang up at home to bring good luck upon their families. We thoroughly enjoyed listening to Marie’s poem about the Fairies that live in the library and who only come out at night when no one is around!!
