Road Safety Authority Visit

The Road Safety Authority (RSA) recently visited our school with all classes learning about the importance of road safety in an age-appropriate way.  🚗

We discussed how to safely get to and from school, how to cross the road safely, the importance of zebra crossings and how to correctly use them, safe cycling skills🚲 and how to be safe when you are a passenger in a car.🚗 These vital skills are essential to keep us all safe on our roads. 

The visit certainly enhanced all our pupils’ knowledge of the rules of the road.

Thank you very much to the RSA for giving us these life-saving tools!

Scór na bPáistí

Last Saturday in Ballinascarthy Hall, the Scór na bPáistí West Cork Semi-Final was held for primary school children. Scór is a GAA run competition that combines all the colour and competitiveness of the Gaelic Games with the entertaining element of Ireland’s traditional past-times. The competition was established by the GAA in 1969 with the aim of promoting Ireland’s traditional pastimes and culture. 🎶🎭

Knockskeagh NS was represented in two categories at this competition over the weekend. Kate Hayes (5th Class) gave a gorgeous performance of Black Velvet Band in the Amhránaíocht Aonair competition 🎤 and Ava Dullea (1st Class) danced excellently in the Rince Aonair competition.💃 

Well done to both girls in these recitals. You did yourselves and Knockskeagh proud! 😀

During the month of January our 3rd class girls and boys, assisted by a few volunteers from 2nd class, played some fantastic football in Ballinacarriga Hall during an indoor games series aimed at 3rd class level. 
The indoor games act as a great opportunity for our pupils to gain exposure to gaelic football in a non-competitve environment. 
The Knockskeagh teams can be very proud of their efforts and most of all their fun approach to each game. 
Well done to all participants for their performances! You should all be very proud 🏅👏
