It has been a very enjoyable summer term developing our school garden. The pupils designed, created, and painted their designs on our garden wall. It was great fun! Well done to everyone on your lovely designs. The garden is so bright and colourful. It is a lovely space to enjoy. We are looking forward to continuing this project next year.
We had a wonderful day visiting Kilkenny. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed a trip to Castlecomer Discovery Park. The pupils participated in the Woodland Adventure Walk, bouncing net and Water Scientist workshop. We had lots of fun! We also explored the fairy and elf village. We saw some beautiful metal craft pieces on display in the National Craft & Design Gallery. We finished off a busy day with a trip to Kilkenny Castle. The children had great fun in the playground. It was a super school tour.
School Tour 2002 – Castlecomer Discovery Park, Castle Playground and Kilkenny Design Centre Art Exhibition. The children had a fantastic day and the weather stayed on our side. The tree top walk was a challenge and the peddle boats were just plain fun! Countdown to our summer holidays now. Well done everyone on such an enjoyable day.
We have been very busy the last few weeks. We enjoyed a trip to Tomnafinnogue Wood as part of our school fundraiser. We visited the Arklow Maritime Museum, learning all about boats and ship wrecks. The children took part in a scavenger hunt, an archaeological dig and building boats that would float. We then enjoyed a picnic at the playground and a beach clean-up as part of our Greenschool’s Maritime Flag. Fun days and plenty more to come before our summer holidays.

We had a great day visiting Tinahely. The children viewed their art on display in Tinahely Courthouse Arts Centre. We extend our thanks to Barbara and Cressida for inviting us to participate in the Freedom Project along with other local schools. We viisited Tomnafinnoge Woods for a picnic and walk. We thoroughly enjoyed the outing.
The pupils had great fun during our recent art workshop for Easter. The children enjoyed rock painting, painted eggs, designed backgrounds for Easter pictures using oil pastels, painted with sponges, and decorated foam rabbits and eggs. It was a fantastic morning. Well done everyone!
