To celebrate Seachtain na Gaeilge we tried very hard at practicing our Gaeilge throughout the day. We played some games, wrote simple stories and listened to our school band playing some Irish songs. We also dressed in green for Lá Glas celebrate St Patrick’s Day!!

We dressed up as our favourite characters from some of the books we have read to celebrate World Book Day! Check out the fantastic costumes 

As part of our Active Schools Flag (ASF) renewal our ASF committee organised for all of the classes to do a daily kilometre using the park. We timed our runs and by the end of February we were able to complete the kilometre much quicker than at the start of the month 😄

We were very busy in school for January and February and are working really hard!! Here are just some of the things we got up to 😊 In January and February we focussed on gymnastics in PE. We learnt how to do the forward roll, teddy bear roll, superman and lots of other cool new gymnastic moves!  We also made St. Brigid crosses to celebrate this special day and mark the start of spring. We used fresh rushes and hung them up in our homes!!  We also made owl-tastic Valentines cards to our loved ones!!
