Well done to our students, Conor Hickey, Dylan Ryan Doyle , Jack Redmond , Jack Joyce and Sarah Joyce who took part in the Carlow County Athletics races. Jack Joyce won a medal. He finished in 9th pace in the 1000m out of 150 students. Sarah also did very well, finishing in 17th place out of 150 participants.
The children were delighted with our vegetable harvest. We had carrots, courgettes, turnips and potatoes. There are still a few courgettes ripening in the bed along with some very tiny pumpkins ! We are already looking forward to planting more veg in the spring.
On Thursday , May 24th , our senior room went to a vocal work shop in Visual theatre in Carlow. They sang Bruno Maher’s ‘ Count on Me’ in front of a packed theatre. After wards, Michael Ó Shuilleabháin taught a vocal play shop. Michael is a famous rap artist who has worked along side Will smith . The pupils really enjoyed learning about the different sounds their voices and bodies could make.
Mrs . Binions and the junior room have created a lovely May themed sacred space .
Pupils in the senior room recently completed a unit of work on birds. We went on a bird watching trip. We collected feathers and printed feathers in Art class. As part of a STEM project, pupils designed and created bird houses.
