We have been SUPER busy lately. We have had Active Week, The Enniscorthy Athletics Competition, A Football Blitz, A visit from The Women’s Rugby World Cup, A tug of war class, a dance class with Wilma, Gaelic with Jason, Rugby with Corey, Tennis with Ashley, an Athlectics workshop and Mercy’s Got Talent!

Jodie and Kacey took to the stage for Mercy’s Got Talent and did us proud.

Danny, Jodie, Alannah, Evan and Luke went to The Enniscorthy Athletics Competition and Ms. English said that she was very proud of them!

Evan gave the boys a ‘lace – tying lesson’ as some of them need to work really hard on learning how to tie their laces over the Summer!!

We used the new laptops to research projects for Geography and History.

We did shadow pictures and as many activities as we could outside because the weather has been really nice.

Dilara and Ruby K reached the Skipathon final during Active Week and Dilara managed to come 3rd place. She is the 3rd best skipper in the whole school!

Kacey, Róisín and Ruby M were presented with certificates for their outstanding handwriting!

The year isn’t over yet … stay tuned for more photographs!

On Tuesday the 2nd of May Mr King’s class visited the Raven forest in Curracloe. We met our guide John and he brought us to the pond to do some dipping and learn about the various forms of plant and animal life in the area. We learned lots of new information about the different habitats and food chains. We finished with a picnic on the beach. It was a really interesting day and one we will remember!

On Wednesday 29th March three coaches from the Faythe Harriers Hurling Club came to our school to introduce the game of hurling to the boys and girls.  Everyone had great fun and really enjoyed learning how to hurl.  A huge thank you to the three coaches Pat Doyle, Darren Caulfield and David Murphy.

Put your hands up if you are having fun

 Can you find yourself in the photos? Who knows maybe Davy Fitz will be checking out our school blog looking for potential hurlers!

A great fun day was had on 1st March 2017 at the Sports Hall Athletics held in Enniscorthy.  Thank you to parents who helped out – Sinead Duffin, Melissa Faherty, Clifford Gainford,Robert Bolger, Ann and William Furlong.  It was a brilliant experience for all involved!

Watch our dress rehearsal for our Ceolchoirm. There will be more to follow later.
