Take a look at our beautiful diaries, as promised when we created our puppets!  All of the children in  room 4 were   very  busy, helping their puppets write some amazing diaries.  This was done in conjunction with learning the days of the week! Everyone worked incredibly hard, describing fantastic adventures with puppets, for one week. The diaries contain beautiful handwriting and lovely illustrations. Well done, Senior Infants.

Today we had a visit from Jennifer and Laura from the charity Hand in Hand. Hand in Hand is a charity that helps the families of children with cancer. They rely entirely on donations so this year the First Holy Communion children decided to very generously donate some of their money to help this charity. Altogether we raised  €723.50. Well done and thank you to everyone who donated money.  We would also like to thank Jennifer and  Laura for taking time out of their busy schedule to come in and speak to us about the work the charity do and how the money will help them.
