Microsoft Hour of Code with 4th class
A huge thank you to Niall Kelly from Microsoft for joining our 4th class students and coding with them using Microsoft MakeCode! 💻🎉
The students had an amazing time in Bug Arena, where they programmed their own bugs to think for themselves using AI and challenge other AI bugs in the arena. Watching their creations compete and problem-solve was inspiring and so much fun! 🐞🤖
We truly appreciate Niall’s time and expertise in bringing coding, creativity, and AI to life for our young learners. 🌟

Rugby in 4th Class
At Scoil Íosa, we promote the holistic development of every child and offer a range of extracurricular activities to meet the needs of our school population.
Boys and girls in 4th class have been taking part in a series of rugby lessons. These are facilitated by Connacht Rugby and provided by Corinthian’s Rugby Club.
Over the course of the programme, the children learned key skills such as passing, tackling, teamwork and spatial awareness, all while having great fun and staying active.
Coach Hughbert created a positive and encouraging environment, helping everyone to build confidence and enjoy trying something new. It was wonderful to see the pupils supporting one another, developing their skills, and growing in enthusiasm each week.
A big thank you to the Corinthian and especially Coach Hughbert for giving our 4th class such an enjoyable and memorable sporting experience!
Chess in Mr Fahy’s Class
Mr Fahy’s classroom was full of focus, creativity, and excitement as the children took part in a class based chess competition.
What made it extra special was that the students created their own chess pieces using wooden models. They carefully designed each piece, bringing their imagination and problem-solving skills to life before the games even began.
The competition showcases not only their growing chess skills, but also their patience, teamwork, and creativity. It was wonderful to see how proud they were to play with pieces they had made themselves. A great learning experience and a lot of fun for everyone involved!
