1st Class Bike Day

1st Class had an enjoyable mornings exercise recently.

They brought their bikes into school and cycled through an obstacle course in our schoolyard. They also navigated our school track very well on their bikes.

Also, Bike Day plays a very important part in promoting road safety awareness in our school. 

Well done everybody on a fun morning of exercise.

Garda Safety Visit

 

Our 2nd Class had a visit by Community Garda Liam Ryan on the 13th of December last. Garda Ryan spoke about road safety and how the class can play an important part in promoting road safety when; walking on roads and footpaths, cycling, or in vehicles.

He answered questions about the Garda kit and spoke about his daily duties. The children got a tour of the Garda van too.

The class learned about all the items carried by Garda Ryan on a daily basis such as pepper spray, the Garda vest, the baton, and handcuffs.

Thank you Garda Ryan for your very enjoyable visit. smile

Beach Lifeguard Talk

Beach Lifeguard Talk

Beach Lifeguard Talk

We were very lucky to have a visit from Senior Beach Lifeguard Graham Kerr recently. He gave a very informative talk to each class group about water and beach safety.

Graham spoke about his experience in lifeguard rescues and provided ways to limit the risks associated with these unfortunate events occurring in the future with each class.

We’d like to thank Graham for his visit and it is certain that each class certainly took a lot of important water safety information on board from his visit.

Streetsmart Visit

Streetsmart Visit

Streetsmart Visit

The Road Safety Authority (RSA) initiative Streetsmart recently visited our school.

Streetsmart involves a streetscape mat which invites children to carry out typical everyday cycling or pedestrian tasks. The streetscape took centre stage in our school hall and each class visited the area during the day.

When the activities were complete, each pupil received a Safety Licence for all their hard work completing each task. 

The visit certainly was an action-packed day that enhanced all our pupils’ knowledge of the rules of the road.
