Thu 06 Jun 2024Paudie P6
Paudie brings a huge amount of character to the classroom. He is a fantastic storyteller who will keep everyone entertained with his amusing tales. He is an enthusiastic pupil who rubs off on those around him. Paudie is also known for his impeccable manners and kindness, particularly to his little brother who he always looks out for.
Paudie is a keen historian whose wealth of knowledge in the subject is to be commended. He impresses us on a daily basis with his ability to remember dates and the smallest details. Paudie is a fantastic support to those around him during World Around Us lessons in this regard.
Paudie has been making excellent progress in his subjects and has displayed a new level of dedication to both Numeracy and Literacy this year. His progress is testament to all his hard work and effort. He truly has had a fantastic P6 year.

Learning Around the School
Thu 06 Jun 2024Mr Doyle’s P4 class have been very busy learning of late and they have been utilising the school grounds for a range of purposes.
Using an app called ‘Plant It,’ they’ve been identifying flowers and plants within their surroundings. After creating their own ‘angle eaters,’ they ventured around the building in search of right angles. Then, within the classroom, all the children planted their own lettuce seeds.
An incredibly productive few days of industry for P4!

Sacred Heart of Jesus
Thu 06 Jun 2024We have dedicated the month of June to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Our prayers and intentions over this four week period are offered up for this purpose.
A few years ago, Mr Patsy Forsythe, a parishioner and past pupil, donated a figure of the Sacred Heart to the school. It currently has prominence on display as a reminder to everyone in the school of our spiritual focus for this month.
