Rang a Sé ag Féile Scoil Drámaíochta

Ms O’ Driscoll’s Sixth Class worked incredibly hard throughout the year preparing for their production of Aladdin. Their commitment and dedication were especially impressive as the entire play was performed as Gaeilge, adding an extra challenge to their rehearsals and performances.
The pupils took part in Féile Scoil Drámaíochta, competing against schools from Galway city and county. The first round of the competition took place in Inverin, where Sixth Class delivered an outstanding performance. Their hard work was rewarded when they came first in their category, securing a place in the next stage of the competition.
Adding to their success, Donncha McKernan, who played the role of Aladdin, was awarded Best Actor. This was a wonderful achievement and well-deserved recognition of his talent, confidence and dedication.
The class then progressed to the second round of the competition, where they performed against schools from all around Connacht. Once again, they impressed the judges and secured a place in the All-Ireland Finals in Mullingar – a fantastic achievement and a testament to the hard work and commitment of every pupil involved.
While they did not take home the top prize at the All-Ireland Finals, reaching that stage of the competition was an incredible accomplishment in itself. Each and every member of the class was fantastic throughout the journey, representing the school with pride, enthusiasm and teamwork.
We are extremely proud of all the pupils for their dedication, perseverance and outstanding performances. Comhghairdeas mór leo ar fad!

Ms Coen’s class visit the library

 

Ms Coen’s had a lovely visit to the library. We got to read books and play with jigsaws and duplo. It was great fun.

Ready, Set, Blast Off!

Ahead of Space Week, Second Class had a special “Book Blast Off” where they explored a wide variety of books. Laid out on the tables were: picture books, Roald Dahl favourites, spooky stories, graphic novels and factual reads.

Some of our standout favourite titles from the event included:

  • The Boy Who Grew Dragons
  • The 13 Storey Treehouse
  • Diary of a Whimpy Kid

The children loved sampling new genres and sharing book recommendations with friends. It was a fantastic way to get everyone excited about reading. They had a blast!

Ms Colleran’s 5th Class visit the Seashore

5th Class visit the seashore

5th Class pupils enjoyed exploring the sea shore searching for hidden treasures! The children loved discovering stones of all shapes and sizes, smoothed by the sea, and shells in every colour, from creamy whites to soft pinks and purples, each one with its own unique pattern. The sea shore was alive with little sea creatures from tiny crabs scuttling sideways across the rocks to little shrimps darting about in rock pools. The children left the shore with sandy shoes and happy smiles.
