Action Team Partnership
Following advice from the NCSE visiting teacher service the ATP (Action Team Partnership) painted the posts in the playgrounds so the students can see them easily. Thank you to J.P., Debbie, Leona, Catherine, Florence, Elaine, Éilis and Ben who volunteered and did a fantastic job.
The Circle of Life
Gold Class is very excited to have live caterpillars at school. As part of our growing theme we are learning about new life in SPHE. We have been learning about the lifecycle of a butterfly and our live caterpillars help us watch this change of life. We are excited to see our catterpillars make their cocoon soon and then turn into bufferflies.

Gardai visit, just the ticket!
We had a great time on Friday when the Gardai came to talk to us about Road Safety. We got to dress up in their new uniforms, sit in their car and test out some of their gadgets. They also reminded us how important it is to wear our seat belts at all times and to be careful when we are crossing the road! Thanks for coming to visit!
Colours in Yellow
We finished our Colour Theme this week. We worked our way through the rainbow, exploring colour in many different ways and having fun with lots of messy activities. We made a colour arc each week and built a beautiful rainbow collage.
Next week it’s all about green fingers as we begin our theme of Growing.
