The 6th class has kicked off the new year in the most amazing way! They've already enjoyed two exciting trips. First, they visited a writing workshop where they each created a fantastic story! Then, they took an incredible trip to Kilmainham Gaol. The students had the chance to dive into the fascinating history of the jail, learned all about it in class, and uncovered so many interesting stories about this remarkable place.

Dia daoibh a chairde, 

We have had another great month and are making great strides at being ag caint as Gaeilge. Since we didn't have assembly this week I will put the pictures of our Gaeilgeoirí na míosa and also some videos of comhrá agus rannta.

We've had a very busy few weeks in senior infants. Last week we visited the library in Richmond Barracks where we got to pick some books. Each child also received a lovely pack from the library.
We have also been very busy this week as it's maths week and we are learning all about 3D shapes. We made some shapes using toothpicks and marshmallows. 
Finally, after working very hard all week, our Clever Clogs table won table of the week and were delighted with their certificates.

At the end of each month we celebrate the Irish language in our assembly. 
Each class practice a set number of phrases (frasaí) each month and learn a song to perform at assembly.
Here is an example of some of the lovely songs the paistí have been learning.

6th class had a trip into town today to attend a Fighting words workshop. We were lucky to get a place on this highly sought after workshop. 
The children work together with the volunteer team, to build a story which is published at the end of the day. This group of children have chosen to extend the story further over the next few days.
