Taekwondo

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

Currently, all pupils from Junior Infants to 6th class have Taekwondo every Thursday.

Over the years our pupils have so much fun in these sessions and the benefits to our pupil’s self-esteem and general fitness levels are clear to be seen.

Thank you to Barry O’Mahony for his coaching and his organisation of such fun sessions for all classes.

Halloween 2024

Halloween 2024

The weather failed to dampen spirits in our school today as our Halloween parade took place this year in our school hall.

What an array of creativity, color, and smiling faces!!

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.

Our Student Council judged this years halloween costumes and they had a tough job on their hands to pick award winners from all these amazing creations.

Please see our 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 Halloween

African Drumming

African Drumming

African Drumming

Every Tuesday over the last five weeks, each class has engaged in African Drumming workshops.

Building on knowledge and skill from last year, each class have been introduced to basic rhythmic concepts of West African and world percussion through drumming, chanting, body percussion, call and response and storytelling.

Using the West African Djembe (pronounced djem – bay) students assemble in the drum circle. They connect to rhythm and sound using a variety of percussion instruments, bells and shakers. It really is great fun!!

Everybody used look forward to drumming time each Tuesday. 🥁😀

Many thanks to Patrick for the fun drumming lessons 👏
