Taekwondo

Coaches from Warrior Martial Arts have continued their annual visit to our school during this term.

All pupils from Junior Infants to 6th class have Taekwondo every Thursday at the moment.

Our pupils love these sessions. Over the years our pupils have so much fun in these sessions.

But the benefits to our pupil’s self-esteem and general fitness levels are clear to be seen too.

Well done everyone and thank you to all involved in coaching these fun sessions during this term. 😀

Halloween Parade 2023

Halloween Parade 2023

Halloween Parade 2023

Our Halloween Parade took place today in our school yard and it was fantastic entertainment. Midway through the rain started to fall but thankfully the ‘Ghoulish Gathering’ was able to continue in our hall. 

There was an abundance of creativity, color, and fun on display. 

We must say a huge well done to all at home who helped create such magnificent costumes (and some terrifying ones too). No doubt it was difficult putting together the final touches this morning 😁

We encouraged the use of recycled costumes this year as part of our Green Schools initiative and the standard was extremely high this year. The judges had a tough job on their hands to pick award winners from all these amazing creations. 

As well as this, our active school committee placed exercise stations around our track which were used all week in the lead-up to Halloween break by our classes.

Please see our Monster Parade video and picture gallery below for a snapshot of some of the amazing costumes around our school today.

Mid-term Break

We hope all pupils, parents, and staff enjoy a well-earned rest during the midterm break.

Happy Halloweensmile

Sciath na Scol Camogie

Our camogie team represented our school in the new West Cork Sciath na Scol camogie competition at Enniskeane today.

After the grading competition a few weeks ago, we were placed in Division 2 which included another three schools, Laragh NS, Timoleague NS, and St Marys, Enniskeane.

Unfortunately, the weather made for very tough conditions for the teams. However, our team can be very proud of their performances against Laragh NS and St Marys, Enniskeane. They played with such enthusiasm and displayed some fantastic skills on the field in both games.

The Timoleague NS team went on to win the cup final against Laragh NS after a fine display, so very well done to them.

Well done to all Knockskeagh NS panel members on the day. We are very proud of them.

Sciath na Scoil Camogie Panel members are as follows; Siobhán McCarthy, Ella Coakley, Laoise Ryan, Peggy Collins, Leanne Walsh, Amber Horgan, Tiegan O’Driscoll, Aoibhinn Rice, Ruby McCarthy, Aideen Murphy, Rosie Scott and Muirne McMahon.

Maths Week 2023

Maths Week 2023

Maths Week 2023

We marked ‘Maths Week’ this week, from Monday 16th October to Friday 20th October. ➕➖✖️➗

We have had a very busy week in Knockskeagh doing lots of different Maths activities! We had Maths art challenges, quizzes, Maths games on the iPads, an orienteering Maths code-breaker challenge around the school grounds, “Maths Eyes” stations in the Infant classrooms where the children participated in different Maths activities and trying to figure out different Maths puzzles.

Everyone was given the chance to guess how many sweets were in their class jar, with the winner of each class getting to keep the whole jar. 🍬Looking at the photos, can you guess how many sweets were in the jars? laughing Congrats to the winners in each classroom! 👏

It really was great fun discovering Maths all around our school during the week!!
