Miss Lester’s class went off on a treasure hunt today as part of their work on compass points. Miss Lester arrived in class today dressed as a pirate with her own treasure map. The map lead to great excitement across the class as everyone went outside to follow the map, using their compass and angles skills. It was an exciting morning and everyone returned to class with a piece of treasure.
Congratulations to the pupils from Miss Lester’s class who received the Sacrament of Holy Communion today. You were a credit to your family and to the school. Many thanks to Father Travers for such a beautiful service and for all the support he has provided to both Miss Lester and the children. Well done boys and girls!!

On Sunday we celebrate as a community of faith and learning with our Pr. 4 pupils from Miss Lester’s class as they receive the Sacrament of First Holy Communion. Please keep the boys and girls and their families in your prayers this weekend.
Two star gymnasts from Mr.O’Dowd’s class were keen to show off their talents to their classmates this week. We look forward to seeing the gymnastic talents of the rest of the class after such brilliant demonstrations. Well done girls!
Our school grounds were are an extremely busy place as classes across the school took advantage of the good weather and got outside for outdoor learning day. Here are a few highlights showing Pr. 1,2 and 7 making use of our school grounds and carrying out some excellent teamwork.
Many thanks to all the contributors who gave up their time and came along today to support our second Careers Fair. It was a resounding success thanks to their commitment and enthusiasm. We really could not have done it without such dedicated supporters of the school. Our contributors provided the children with the opportunity to learn about a wide array of professions such as acting, printing, aircraft engineering, science, optometry, pharmacy, karate, banking, software engineering, dental science, biology, trucking/transport, quantity surveying, real estate, environmental health, health promotion and teaching. It was great to see the children so engaged and eager to ask lots of questions. Our afternoon was a great success with many thanks to our Parent Council for their support in organising the event. Here are a few highlights.
The school was delighted to receive a very special statue of Our Lady of Fatima this week. The statue visited classes for prayer sessions and also provided an opportunity for children to learn about the apparition of our Lady at Fatima and the recent canonizations.
Mrs. Drummond reported that the children were exceptional at the football festival this week. Well done boys and girls, you were excellent ambassadors for the school.
