The hustle and bustle of school life is well and truly back in Sacred Heart P.S. as we completed our second full week of term since our return.
At assembly this afternoon we acknowledged our Pupil of the Week winners who were all very deserving of their personal accolades.
Well done to Liam (P1), Lochlan (P2), Eoin (P3), Cahal (P4), Meabh (P5), Caleb (P6) and Sofia (P7)!
Lorcan - P2
Lorcan is an extremely caring member of the P2 classroom. He looks out for his classmates both inside and outside and is a great friend to all. He has carried out his class job with wonderful maturity this week. Lorcan always uses beautiful manners and encourages his friends to do the same. You are a young gentleman Lorcan, thank you for being a kind friend with everyone in your class.
32 years ago today Roald Dahl died. Every year schools now mark this anniversary with what has become known as ‘Roald Dahl Day.’
To acknowledge this special annual occasion, three internal initiatives were held. Foundation Stage undertook a colouring competition, Key Stage 1 designed a book cover for their favourite Roald Dahl book whilst Key Stage 2 composed book reviews of their favourite book from Dahl.
Some fantastic activities took place throughout the school. Special mention goes to Miss McClean’s P2 class who created a chocolate factory inspired by Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. There were some wonderful creations like snowflake chocolate, chilli chocolate and lemon chocolate on a stick. During numeracy, the boys and girls were intrigued with the BFG and his huge feet. So much so that they went outside and measured themselves using their own footprint!
A very enjoyable day was had by all of the classes, learning about one of the greatest authors of all time.

As part of our drive to ensure that we as school can operate within a ecological setting, four new nest boxes were installed on our grounds today.
Three are for bluetits whilst one is for robins. All are positioned at least two metres above ground with the openings facing north west from the prevailing winds.
We thank a friend of the school, Mr Richard Byrne, for constructing the boxes. A contribution will be made to his linked charity, the Rotary Club.
Our eagle eyed ornithologists will be keeping lookout when we approach the spring for any new visitors to the school grounds!
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
