Many exciting events are planned, as part of 'Seachtain na Gaeilge'; for example 'Rince ceilí', 'Lá glas' agus ' Cluichí sa Chlós'.

  Engineers week 6 th -10 th March     As part of Engineer’s Week, we conducted a study on parachutes in 2 nd class.  The children learned basic facts about aerodynamics.  Then in groups, they designed a parachute that would hold a small action figure in air for a short period. As part of the task, children learned to redesign (if required) elements of their parachute. Overall, the children really enjoyed this ‘hands-on’ and exciting activity. (Mr McGuire).
