Congratulations to our girls who won the St. Finbarr’s Camogie Cup and the boys who won the Séan Condon Memorial Cup at the Lough Leagues.
In our school hall we unveiled a healthy school mural to mark all of our efforts to be a health promoting school.
This week we proudly raised our third Green Flag for water conservation and our Health Promoting School Flag.
Look at our beautiful kites that we made:
Oh, the excitement. 🙂
Today we had an ice-cream party in our class. As we won’t see Deirdre, our Speech Therapist for the rest of this school year, she brought in ice-cream to treat us. We had to ask for our preferred flavour of ice-cream and the toppings that we would like. We were very good at asking the questions and using our new vocabulary. Yum, Yum! See you in September Deirdre.
Happy birthday to one of our Speech Therapists, Pricia. 21 again!!! We were so good at keeping the party a secret. Pricia got a huge surprise when she came into the classroom.
We had our school tour on Monday. We went to Tír na Sí Farm in Watergrasshill. The weather was beautiful. Here are some pictures we took on the day.

Charlie the horse gave us a ride to see some of the animals.
We even got to feed some of the animals:
They even had some unusual animals – alpacas and llamas:
There was a fairy woodland there. We were very quiet and tip-toed through the trees:
We knocked on the doors to see if any of the fairies would come out to say hi:
Hard at work:
Crazy golf.
One of the highlights:
We nearly lost a few people in the ball pool!!!
Some videos of us feeding the animals:
For the last few weeks we have been trying out African Drumming. It has been so much fun. Patrick is our drumming teacher. We learned about the different sounds an African drum can make and all the different rhythms you cam play on the drums.
At the end of this week’s class we learned a traditional African dance. Here we are performing it. Thanks Patrick.
Erik and Yvonne made their Holy Communion last week. Erik looked very handsome in his suit and Yvonne wore a beautiful dress. Congratulations Erik and Yvonne.
