Engineers Week 2022

We marked ‘Engineers Week’ from Monday 7th of March to Friday 11th March this year.    

Engineering Week activities this year included the following activities: Lego challenges, STEM challenges through the use of our STEM Box, a school-wide engineering quiz,  and learning about different types of engineering.

 Also during Engineers Week, all children from 3rd to 6th class had a really enjoyable visit from climate ambassador and engineer Niamh Ryan who gave an insight into sustainable development and engineering. Thank you, Niamh for a very interesting and fun visit. 

You can view a snapshot of some of the engineering activities and projects in each of the classes in the gallery below.

St Patricks Day 2022

St Patricks Day 2022

St Patricks Day 2022

St Patrick’s Day celebrations this year were something that we’ll certainly remember as it was a return to the in-person parade of a few years ago. 

Our school took part in the parade organised by the Clonakilty Mayoral Town Council. The theme for this year’s parade was “Le chéile arís”

As part of our parade,  the pupils made a huge effort with dressing up to mark the occasion,  in the emerald green of St Patricks Day attire or in the Knockskeagh jersey colours. 

We showcased all the wonderful activities on offer in our school and all that makes Knockskeagh so special in this year’s parade. 

Well done to all pupils and staff who made this such a special day.

Our gallery displays a snapshot of pictures from our school’s display in the  St Patrick Day parade in Clonakilty.
