Today, the children had a fantastic opportunity to investigate and handle a cow’s heart and lungs. The cow’s organs were provided by Thomas, a trainee veterinary nurse. He presented an insightful presentation and quiz that helped the children fully get involved with the investigation. It is clear the boys and girls in 5th class really enjoyed it!
For the month of January the children were asked to create a group project based on their study of Great Britain and historical exploration of the Plantations.
Well done 5th Class on your amazing achievements!
Eoghan O’Meara came to visit our class today with the FAI Cup won by Shamrock Rovers F.C. recently in their final against Dundalk F.C.!
In December, the children had a visit from local Farmer and parent Willie Fox. The children learned a lot about the challenges and opportunities farming has for farmers at both the local and national level.
This week the school prepared for the unveiling of our fantastic new Buddy Bench. The Buddy Bench represents for pupils an area in the school yard that they can go to if feeling in need of a friend or a place to chat and reflect.
The school would like to say a big thank you to the fantastic work of the local Men’s Shed and our Parents’ Association.
