Dear Students,

I hope you’re all well and that you’re getting to grips with Seesaw and how to access the videos and support material. Thanks to everyone who attended the Zoom calls on Thursday. We had some good chats and a bit of fun with the quiz. Well done to the quiz winners Eve (5^th Class) and Grace (6^th Class) who get a homework pass for one subject on Monday.

If you need any help with anything, as always, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Best of luck!

Mr. McArdle

Halloween 2020 👻🎃👻

Rugby Blitz- 6th November 2019

5th and 6th Class had a great time at the recent Rugby Blitz in Birr R.F.C. Our Girls’ Team were flawless in winning all 4 of their games while our Boys’ Team did really well to win 2 out of their 3 games, despite having no reinforcements to call upon. A great day was had by all – thanks so much to Denis and all the crew at the Rugby Club!

Halloween 2019

Well done to everyone for the great effort with their Halloween costumes this year! Here we are looking spoooooktacular!!
