Lego Building Competition

Fifth class pupils Evan O Crowley and Odhran O Sullivan entered a Lego building competition run by Autism-Friendly Clonakilty recently.
They loved every second of creating this building of what “My Clonakilty” looks like and worked extremely hard over these last few weeks. They built a skyscraper toy shop which showed examples of racing cars on the top of the building, a delivery truck unloading all the new toys along with a sensory garden for children with ASD to enjoy.
The shop owner “Emmet” can be seen opening the doors to his customers with his flying truck parked outside! They let their imagination run wild and it is clear they are extremely proud of what they achieved.
Well done boys 😀👋

Water Safety

We were very lucky to have had a visit by Ciara of Water Safety Ireland recently. She gave a very informative talk and presentation to each class group about staying safe around water at the beach, at the pool, on the farm, around inland waterways, and around the home. 

Ciara taught some basic life-saving techniques and each class was provided with an opportunity to put these techniques into practice in the schoolyard using lifebuoys. 

We’d like to thank Ciara for her visit and it is certain that each class certainly took a lot of important water safety information on board from her visit.

Please check out some pictures below from some of the rescues and presentations.

Christmas Holidays

As we come to the end of the term in school, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the incredible support you have given the school during this uncertain time.

While things have been a little different for everyone, the children rose to the occasion spectacularly and embraced all the changes they faced. 

A big thank you to our Parents Association and Board of Management for their continued help and support.

As you are no doubt aware, we close for the Christmas holidays on Wednesday, 22nd December at 12.00 for Special Classes, Junior & Senior Infants and 12.30 for all other classes.

All children are invited to dress up in Christmas attire (Christmas jumpers/hats/tinsel..whatever you wish) on the day. 

We look forward to welcoming your children back, refreshed and rested on Thursday, 6th January, 2022.

Energy Workshop

Energy Workshop

Energy Workshop

We were delighted to welcome an Energy Workshop from the Lifetime Lab.

Our 3rd, 4th and 5th classes engaged in the energy workshops which covered the topics of energy sources, climate change, CO2, and what we as individuals can do to reduce the amount of energy we use.

The classes completed some fun curriculum-linked energy experiments, for example, did you know you can make a battery out of a lemon?

Towards the end of the workshop, the children played Guzzler’s Energy Challenge, where the aim of the game was to collect as many energy points as possible – and avoid the dreaded Sin Bin! Each of the classes had a great morning of learning and fun.

Santas Magical Movies

Santas Magical Movies

Santas Magical Movies

Our 6th Class recently transformed our school hall into a cinema theatre as part of the Junior Entrepreneur Programme. 

They called their business “Santas Magical Movies”. As part of the concept, each class in their pods watched a Christmas movie and was treated to some freshly made popcorn from the onsite popcorn machine.

Each pupil in the school loved the cinema experience organised by 6th class. They deserve huge credit for creating a well-run business in a safe and enjoyable environment for all. Well done to each and every one of them.
