World Book Day in 2nd
We celebrated World Book Day with lots of interesting activities.
First, the children got into character as their favourite book personas. What fun!
Then we went on a book trail searching for clues around the school. Once found, the trick was to solve the name of a book. We had 10 to find and solve in total.
Finally, the children designed a book cover and a winner was chosen from all classes. Congratulations to all.
Guess who our winner was?
Communion Retreat for 2nd Classes
Second classes were very fortunate to have a Communion Retreat for a whole day!
Nine volunteers have taken a year out from work or study to help prepare children for their First Confession and for their First Holy Communion. Our volunteers came from the Australia, the U.S.A. and Ireland.
The children had a wonderful day packed with teaching about Jesus’ love for us in a fun and meaningful way.
Active Slogan Winners
Well done to the boys and girls in Ms. Waters 4th class whose slogan was chosen as the overall school winner. Their slogan encourages us to avoid staying inside too much and to get out and be active ‘Avoid the crazy, don’t be lazy’. Their prize was a fun filled day of activities in school which they got to pick themselves. Highlights were HITT, dance, dodgeball, badminton, hurling skills session given by Wexford Cian Molloy and to finish it off, we had a penalty shoot out against Mr. Cronin. Also, we would like to thank Dara from Cullen’s Fruit Farm who donated each child pots of yummy fruit and juices.
