Busy Breaks
We take part in daily Movement Breaks in our classes . The children are using Go Noodle in the pictures below. It helps burn off some energy and re focus us for the next lesson. Always good to loosen muscles for a few minutes, at any time of the day!

Céilí Mór - Seachtain na Gaeilge.
Lots of fun was had in the few weeks leading up to Seachtain na Gaeilge as the pupils were all practicing their Irish Dancing steps and dances under the guidance of Ms Gemma. The older pupils learned The Walls of Limerick & Siege of Ennis. Juniors to 6th got involved and everyone really enjoyed themselves. It ended with a Céilí Mór in the hall on 13th March where everyone got the opportunity to showcase their moves!
