Halloween Celebrations

Image
  We had a wonderful time celebrating Halloween in 2nd class. The children learned about the history of Halloween, they made some creative pieces of art (clay pumpkins) and much more. On the Friday before the Halloween break, the children got dressed up to celebrate this seasonal event. We all had a wonderful time.

Class Trip to a Play: Ballyfermot Library

  On Tuesday 18th October 2022, the children from 2nd class (both Mr McGuire's and Ms Murtagh's class) went to Ballyfermot Library to watch a spectacular performance of 'The Giggler Treatment' by Roddy Doyle. The children really enjoyed the performance, which was a collaboration between the Theatre Commission and 'The Ark'. It was adapted and composed by Fionn Foley and directed by Sophie Motley.

  On the 10th of October 2022, 'Maths Week' commenced in St. Gabriel's School. Children from all year groups enjoyed undertaking a range of fun maths activities both within the school building, as well as in the adjoining grounds. Children learned to work both individually and as a team, to solve maths problems and tasks.
