The beginning of May saw the Green Team hard at work transplanting our nasturtiums into the outside beds with help from Stephen. Mrs Kelly and some of her pupils had also planted some seed potatoes in this bed; with a tyre to deepen the soil.
Stephen had some strawberry plants for us to plant, they were planted inside the polytunnel next to the tomatoes and our cucumber plant. We are all excited to see some fruit soon!
Returning after Easter saw the polytunnel brimming with sprouts and shoots. Everyone was delighted to see their hard work had paid off as all the seeds were beginning to grow.
Lettuce plants were transplanted into bigger pots, to give them more room to grow and the last of the daffodils were planted in front of the school to brighten our pots.
April was busy with sowing and growing taking place in the polytunnel. The Green Team were busy planting tomato, lettuce, beetroot, peas and many flower varieties such as marigolds, cornflowers and nasturtiums. Thank you to Stephen, our caretaker who provided the seeds and is an honorary member of our Green Team!
6th Class held their annual Wax Museum and put on such a FANTASTIC and MEMORABLE performance! They researched their character, designed posters, gathered costumes and props, perfected their new accents and learned their facts off by heart – what a superb effort!!

WELL DONE 6TH CLASS!!!

The Senior Girls and Boys travelled to Leckview to take part in the 5-a-side football tournament. Both teams played really well, demonstrating excellent team work and scoring lots of brilliant goals. Our girls team narrowly missed out on qualification. We all had great fun!
As part of wellness week all classes enjoyed some buddy reading time in the library today. Here are some pictures from 4th class and Senior Infants.
