SCHOOL NEWS in Brief…..
7th June 2018
From the Principal’s desk:
Well done to all the children who took part in Write – A – Book 2018!
It is a great achievement for each child from Junior Infants right up to Rang 6 to have written and illustrated their very own book.
Write – A – Book assembly took place last week with all children going home with a certificate acknowledging the hard work and dedication that went into each book. Thank you to all the teachers, staff and parents who supported this great project! It is great to see the enthusiasm reading and writing brings! Also, thank you to our highly esteemed judges who were charged with the difficult decision of judging the books from Rang 3 – Rang 6.
All of our authors will be on display in the window in the coming days.
Rang 6 are currently having a great time on their overnight trip to Delphi! Check out

Please check for lost property at the gate in the morning. All items left at the weekend will be donated to charity.
