Today, the Irish Cancer Society’s annual Daffodil Day Fundraiser took place in school.

All children were invited to wear yellow or orange on the day.

We’d like to thank everybody for their generous donations to this very worthy cause through our Cake Sale and our Monster Raffle. 

Also, special mention to everyone who helped in any way to make our day such a success.

We raised a total of €2154 during the week, which truly is an amazing result.

The gallery below displays pictures of our Daffodil Day raffle held to great excitement around our school today.

Last Friday 21st of March, to mark the event and to raise awareness around Down Syndrome, each class were invited to wear crazy tights or odd/crazy socks on the day.

“Rock Your Socks” has certainly become an annual hit in our school.

Check out our gallery below for a snapshot of some of the socks and colours on display.

St Patrick’s Day parade this year was something to cherish with so many colourful and vibrant entries. 

The theme for this year’s St Patricks parade celebrated Irish Folklore “Béaloideas”.

As part of our parade entry,  the pupils made a huge effort and dressed up as characters from different Irish stories and folklore. Our slogan was “Celebrating Irish Folklore”. The pupils wore colourful masks adn costumes depicting stories like the story of Cúchulainn, Leprechauns, the Children of Lir and the Salmon of Knowledge.  As well as this, our pupils learned a dance routine to the song “Galway Girl” by Ed Shearan. It was an amazing spectacle and huge thanks must go to Miss Ambrose for her help with the routine and of course, our fantastic pupils who performed it so well on the day.

Well done to all pupils and staff who made this such a special day.
