We’re wrapping up an amazing 6-week cycling programme with the brilliant Tomas and Ally — and what a ride it’s been! π
A massive thank you to both of them for bringing such energy, encouragement, and fun to every session. The children have gained fantastic cycling skills, built confidence, and most importantly, had a brilliant time doing it! πͺπ²π
From balance and control to road awareness and safety, the opportunities and experiences offered were second to none. It’s been a joy to watch the progress and smiles grow each week! π
Here’s to more pedals, progress, and positivity in the future! π₯³π΄βοΈ
We’re officially two weeks in and our students are absolutely smashing it in the Skipping Around Europe Challenge in the amazing weather! ππͺ
From Dublin to Prague and Berlin to Budapest, our classes have been racking up their skips and making fantastic progress across the continent. πΊοΈπ₯ It’s been incredible to see the energy, enthusiasm, and teamwork from all classes — skipping ropes flying, smiles beaming, and legs moving non-stop! π
A huge well done to all the students (and staff!) who’ve taken part so far — your effort and commitment are truly inspiring. Let’s keep up the great work and see just how far we can travel in the next few weeks! ππ
Keep skipping, keep smiling, and keep moving!
What an incredible week of football for our school! Both the boys' and girls' teams competed in their blitz tournaments, showing amazing teamwork, determination, and skill.
We are so proud to share that both teams made it through the group stages and into the finals, playing their hearts out and doing absolutely fantastic! π
Their hard work, sportsmanship, and team spirit were on full display, and every player should feel really proud of how well they did. They represented the school brilliantly and gave it their all right to the very end.
And this is just the beginning — more competitions are coming up in a few weeks, and we can't wait to see these amazing teams back in action!
Well done, everyone! πβ½
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our brand-new school walkway, a space designed to promote health, well-being, and an appreciation for staying active.
To kick things off, our amazing 6th class students took the lead by guiding each class around the walkway. They shared fun and inspiring facts about marathons — from the history of the race to the dedication it takes to complete one. Their enthusiasm and knowledge helped everyone understand the importance of setting goals and enjoying physical activity.
This walkway will be a wonderful addition to our school, encouraging students to move, chat, and learn in a refreshing outdoor environment. A huge thank you to 6th class for their leadership and to everyone who made this project possible.
Let’s get walking!
Our sixth-class students are stepping up to get everyone moving with exciting activity breaks! Each day at 10 a.m., they lead us in a range of fun exercises aimed at keeping all classes active and engaged. Let the fun begin!
I’m thrilled to share some fantastic news—our school has officially joined the Active Flag initiative this year! The Active School Flag is an exciting program that aims to encourage physical activity and promote wellbeing for all of our students. Throughout the year, I will keep you updated on our journey to earn this prestigious flag. Let’s do this together!
