Scoil Naomh Padraig Measc
Congratulations to Sixth Class! We are very proud of how they prepared for this special sacrament. Bishop Ray Browne confirmed the children and we hope they are filled with the Holy Spirit and a renewed sense of their role in the Christian Family! Thanks to photographer Denis Walsh for forwarding this lovely photo.
Bhí Céilí Mór againn inniu agus bhain gach páiste agus múinteoir an-taitneamh as an lá. Míle buíochas dona rinceoirí, na hamhránaithe, na ceoltóirí, ár seanachaí scoile agus Ms Gemma.
Bhí na rinceoirí go hiontach ar fad: Gach duine ag déananmh ‘their own thing’

Pupils in First and Fifth really enjoyed and were challenged by engineering activities. First Class built the tallest buildings….in the World: The Burj Caherleaheen! Fifth class dropped eggs without cracking any shell….they used pneumatic platforms and other clever landing structures. Click ‘Read More’ to see other activities…..such as the secret chef behind the delicious soup:a hearty, healthy organic soup made with sweet potatoes, carrots, butternut squash,garlic, onions and more (another fab recipe from Ms Gemma)

We love books and many of the children have favourite books, with characters which draw them deep into another world. Our senior readers in Fourth and Second, paired up with juniors and infants to read to them and all of them enjoyed this ‘paired reading’ activity. It’s the perfect way for parents to end the day at home, too: Share a book together at bedtime. Click ‘Read More’. We encourage all parents to visit the library often with their young readers.
‘What’s going to happen next?’
