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

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.

Christmas Carol Singing

On Friday, 17th December, all our classes sang Christmas carols outside our school.  The Christmas Carols were recorded and a Christmas Carol Film was created and sent to the hospital and care homes in our locality.

In conjunction with our carol singing, we had a bucket collection in each classroom for the ‘St. Vincent de Paul Christmas Collection’.  All donations are appreciated by this worthy charity and all monies collected will be distributed locally.

Please see the link below of each class performing their Christmas Carol.

Podcast: “The Story of Tojo”

 

2nd Class has been busy creating and recording their very first podcast recently. It is all about the visit of a spider monkey named Tojo to Clonakilty nearly 80 years ago.

The podcast was recorded in Knockskeagh and produced by all the 2nd class pupils. They had great fun making it and bringing the story to life.

All of 2nd class would love to hear from you if you enjoyed listening to their podcast. You can make contact on the ‘Contact Us’ section of our website, on Twitter, or on our Facebook page.

Well done to all 2nd Class on a wonderful production.
