Our 1st and 2nd class visited Red Strand Beach on Monday the 21st of June.
They completed a number of science investigations including;
After this, they explored the rockpool areas at the beach known as the intertidal zone. They found and learned about limpet, dog whelk, mussels, barnacles, kelp, anemone, and 3 different types of seaweed. Also, each class was shown how to identify the low tide and high tide marks. They learned about the tides ebbing and flowing too.
After lunch, they had a visit from Mairéad O Donovan from the Scoil an Mara video series. Mairéad was greeted with great excitement. Thank you Mairéad for taking the time to visit and being so patient when chatting to pupils and answering their questions.
Each class finished the day by engaging in a number of games on the beach and sand art. Also, they took the time to pick up some litter around the beach. At Knockskeagh National School, we are advocates of “Leave no trace”.
It was a very enjoyable day for all, made all the better by the beautiful sunshine.
Please see our gallery below for a sample of the fun had by the classes on their beach visit.

Last Friday, June 18th our 2nd Class visited Clonakilty Adventure Centre for their school tour. They had such a fantastic day. In the morning, they tried the ropes course, zip line, climbing wall, and power fan jump. 😊
Soon after, they tried their golfing skills on the crazy golf course. The school tour was made so much more enjoyable with the beautiful sunshine.
Thanks to all at Clonakilty Adventure Centre for all their help, assistance and providing a fun day for us all. 😊

This year all classes took part in a ‘Walk around Europe’. Instead of hopping on a plane and visiting all the countries in the EU, we went on a trip to all the countries around the track in Knockskeagh!
At every stop we learned about the capital of the country, saw a picture of a famous landmark and listened to some interesting facts, and learned how to say “hello” in their native language, which was great fun to practice!

On Tuesday 8th of June, we officially opened our Knockskeagh Olympic Games.
Each class wore their country’s colours and walked a lap of our Active Flag Walkway to great cheer and fanfare from the whole school. Even though the weather wasn’t good, it still didn’t dampen the spirits of the whole school.
During the remainder of this week, each class will participate in lots of different sporting events! Each class is divided into Olympic teams and will represent a particular country! If a team member finishes in the top 5 in any event, they win their team points! At the end of the week, the points will be added up and the team with the most points will be crowned Olympic Champions. They will receive gold medals. Silver and Bronze medals will also be awarded for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place.
Check out our gallery below for a sample of the colour on display during our Opening Ceremony.
Everyone will participate and have great fun, which is the most important thing!! Let the games begin !!
