Shamrock Symmetry

Pupils consolidated their understanding of symmetry by creating shamrock art to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.

They painted half of their page, then folded page in half and pressed paint onto other half.

When they opened their page, they discovered perfect shamrock symmetry!

First Confession – Ms Rochford’s 2nd

On Wednesday, 12th February, children from all 2nd classes made their First Confession with Fr. Flynn, Fr. Banville or Fr. Kehoe.

Father spoke with the children as did Net Ministries. We learned afresh about God’s love and why it is important to ask for His forgiveness for the times we do not live as we should.

The children were then split into groups headed by their team leader from Net Ministries. There, they undertook small group activities while waiting to make their Confession.

A big thank you to the priests and Net Ministries for making the ceremony so meaningful for the children.

Finally, take a look at the children’s lovely art work, completed as part of their preparation for their First Confession.

Seachtain na Gaeilge sa Ranganna 2 agus 5

Tháinig rang 2 agus rang 5 le chéile chun leabhair Gaeilge a léamh agus taitneamh a bhaint astu.

Ms Rochford’s 2nd class and Mr O’Brien’s 5th class came together during Seachtain na Gaeilge to read and enjoy Irish storybooks together.

Bhí orthu an bhrí a fháil amach ag baint úsáide as pictiúir, focail atá ar eolas acu agus tuiscint choiteann. Rinne said obair iontach!

The pupils figured out the meaning with the help of pictures, words they know and common sense. They did a great job and had fun in the process!
