Today the Senior Room visited Coláiste Bhríde to work with the 1st years on our novel “A Place called Perfect”, written by Irish Author Helena Duggan. Thank you so much to Mrs Murphy and the TY Students for the fun, engaging activities today! We can’t wait for our next visit and can’t wait to see what happens next – are there really ghosts in the Ghost Estate?

We were sad to say goodbye to author Caroline Busher last week. Caroline has been visiting our school for a number of weeks to work on poetry and creative writing. We learned so much about History, creating characters, story boards and above all else using our imagination. Thank you Caroline and we look forward to working with you again!

Time to Clean Up

Time to Clean Up

The whole school went on a walk with our litter pickers, our rubbish bags, our gloves and our determination to clean up Carnew. Our biggest mission was the playground!

Please stop throwing your litter where we like to go and play! Bring your rubbish home with you!

Fire Brigade Visit

A huge thank you the Carnew Fire Brigade for allowing us to visit the station. We had great fun using the hose and learning all about their role in our community. We would like to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU for everything you do to keep us safe.

Internet Safety Talk

Internet Safety Talk

Many thanks to Garda Detective Michelle for visiting All Saints’ National School this week to raise awareness on internet safety and cyber bullying! The children learned how to keep safe online, using private accounts, the dangers of chatting online and above all how one nasty comment made online is bullying! Something that we are firmly against! We could have future gardaí in our mist in All Saints’ and Garda Michelle was very impressed with everyone’s knowledge on Internet Safety!

World Book Day 2023

World Book Day 2023

The children were fantastic today in their World Book Day costumes! They talked about their characters and why they were their favourite! We discussed the importance of reading – reading books that you love and enjoy! We created animations on flipgird, made potato characters and played board games. The children are working on book covers also of their favourite books. We visited the library and decided to blend into a book!! How cool!!!

Well done everyone (including the teachers!)

Science Blast 2023

What a fantastic day we had in the RDS at the Science Blast Competition. The Senior Room thoroughly enjoyed the day out and showcased their project “Can you tell the difference in regular and diet drinks?” The judge was very impressed with their scientific investigations, their knowledge and understanding of the topic and commended them on all of their hard work! Well done everyone and thank you to Science Blast for such a well run, organised event.
