Virtual Run to Croke Park on National Fitness Day

As part of European Week of Sport, our whole school decided to run the distance from Ardrahan to Croke Park. All the boys and girls in Third and Fourth Class ran laps around our school pitch and we tracked our progress. Each child ran a two kilometre and some even ran more! We had lots of fun celebrating National Fitness Day and reached our 212km target! We were all very tired but we had great fun!


We have also been having great fun with our new set of skipping ropes during PE lessons! We are improving each week and learning lots of different ways to skip using the skipping ropes.

Grandparents' Day

Grandparents' Day was a truly special occasion at our school, filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories. The children were thrilled to share their classrooms and activities with their grandparents, who brought such warmth and joy to the day. A huge thank you to all the parents who contributed the delicious baked goods—it was a real treat for everyone and added to the festive atmosphere. It was heartwarming to see generations coming together and celebrating the importance of family. We are so grateful for the wonderful community spirit that made the day such a success!

Christmas Wreaths

Fourth Class got into the festive spirit this week by creating beautiful Christmas wreaths to decorate their homes. Using oasis as a base, they carefully arranged holly, ivy, and greenery, finishing with a dusting of snow spray for a magical touch. The children showed fantastic creativity and focus, designing stunning centrepieces to brighten up their kitchen tables over the holidays. Well done to everyone for their hard work and festive flair!
