On Friday we had our end of  year assembly. We had a lovely graduation ceremony in the hall where the children said prayers, reflections and sang songs. We also distributed the City Sports awards. 
​We wish the 6th Class pupils all the best for the future. ​

We had a superb day out in  Wildlands for the 5th class school tour! The children did Zip  and Trek as well as Disc golf and had a  wonderful day.  Special word of thanks to all parents who brought the children to and from the event. Also to our  teachers Ms. Burns, Mr. Healy, Ms. Carr, Ms. Kyne and Sinead! What a great way to end  the year! 

We had an amazing day for City Sports in Dangan this year. We had a strong school representation who competed  admirably across all events. A huge congratulations to Maebh Cooke (5th class ) who won a silver medal! We are extremely proud of all the boys and girls who competed on the day. A special thanks to all parents and supporters who were there on the day and also to Ms. Egan , Ms. Molloy and Mr. Healy

We got very lucky with the weather today for our Active School Day. The two 6th classes joined together for some great fun activities on the pitch. Thanks to Mr.Healy and his class for the great set up! 

Our school museum was a great success this week. Thank you to Ms.Burke for organising it and to everyone who donated artefacts. We all really enjoyed looking at everything and we learned a lot. Have a look at the pictures of our museum below. 

The two third classes had a fantastic day yesterday on their first school tour in 3 years!  We had an action packed day in The Planet! We  enjoyed some soft play, bowling and laser tag  activities and afterwards we popped to Supermac's   to enjoy some  tasty food and ice-creams! On our bus journey back to school we took a detour and enjoyed some time in the Millenium Children's  Park and Playground.  Here are some pics from our fun day out!

We were delighted to welcome Colm & Therese from The Galway Sick Kids Foundation to our school today. It was amazing to be able to present them with our donation of €703.50 collected by our wonderful 2nd & 6th class children. Colm & Therese spoke to us about the work they do and about where the money will be used. It’s great to support one of our local children’s charities!

Today we were delighted to  have our Multicultural Day back after two years. It is a day where we celebrate  all the different countries of the children in our school and their wonderful cultures and traditions. The children created amazing projects, wore traditional clothes and brought in some delicious food.  A huge thank you to all the families who came in to help out. We all had a very enjoyable day!

We took advantage of the beautiful, sunny weather during the week and went  to Dangan. We really enjoyed taking part in the  nature  scavenger hunt and drawing some landscape sketches  on the banks of the Corrib. We took in the beautiful sights of Menlo Castle, the Corrib River and  even bumped into some friendly donkeys on our travels! We can't wait for more outdoor adventure and sunny days in June!

Today, Ms.Lane's 6th class took part in a Seashore Safari on Grattan Beach with Rory from Galway Atlantaquaria.  We  found many creatures living in the rock pools such as different types of crabs, fish, limpets and  snails. Our feet got fairly wet but it was  a great day out and we really enjoyed it.

6th class have been showing  2nd class how to use the Sphero's by coding them on the iPads.  It has been great fun! Have a look at some pictures and videos below. 

Well done to Tom Fitzgerald in 5th class who managed to acquire one of the match balls in the recent Connacht  v Zebre match! He even got a signature from Jack Carty!

We are very fortunate to have some wonderful teachers who give freely of their time to arrange after school activities for the children in our school. As you can see, they thoroughly  enjoy taking part in these activities!

A huge congratulations to our school hurling team who took part in a   blitz organised by Rahoon/Newcastle GAA club. Our 3 teams put  in a wonderful display  and had a great day  out. A special thanks to all those who assisted in organising this at the club and also to all parents who helped on the day. Well done boys and girls!

Well done to our Artists of the Month for May from our 3rd and 4th Classes. What a creative and uplifting display of art from Martyna Mnich & Tudor Cegolea (3rd classes) and Roisín Griffin & Adam Lyons (4th classes). It's always so lovely to see the children's art work in the corridors and all around the school!

Mr.Whippy arrived today and everyone was very excited.🍦

We had a wonderful celebration of creativity in our school during Creative Schools Week. We all got to take part in fun drumming workshops with the fantastic Drumadore drumming company, and we also had a visit from Mr. Whippie! It was a lovely treat at the end of Creative Schools Week - well done to all of the children and teachers for the wonderful creative work and activities, we all enjoyed it!
