We had a beautiful Christmas celebration in the Mercy Secondary school last Tuesday.
The children sang Christmas songs depicting the story of the Nativity, while 1st class did a freeze frame of the nativity scene.
It reminded us all of the true meaning of Christmas and why we celebrate it.

6th Class has had a very busy few weeks leading up to Christmas. As part of their community project, some students joined Helen to begin work on the construction of a house, while the rest of the class focused on designing a Christmas door for the school competition.
Later in the month, they worked with graffiti artists to create signage for the outside of the door, adding a unique touch to their design. They also had the chance to interview members of the school community, learning more about the history of Inchicore and the flats.
To round off the month, we had our school concert and they visited the rock climbing center in Tallaght, where they put their climbing skills to the test. It’s been a productive and engaging time for the class!🎄✨

We have had a very busy first term in 2nd class. We got to take part in Creativity in the Classroom! Using clay the class designed all different animals and created a zoo enclosure. They also used different drawing tools to create fabulous pictures. As part of Creativity in the Classroom we also got invited over to Goldenbridge Cemetery for an art exhibition, and we had great fun!
For Science week we engaged in different experiments. The first one was to create a bridge that wouldn't collapse holding a copy book and the second one was making a parachute for an egg. The excitement in the classroom while participating in these experiments was electric!

We have Been very fortunate to be one of 7 schools to receive ‘Free to be me’ Little Library of approximately 100 books.
Children’s Books Ireland aim to build a love of reading. The ‘Free to be me’ project enables our students see themselves reflected in a book, as well as learning about the lives of others, who’s experiences and perspectives might be different from their own. Here is just a sample of the books. The little library is on display on corridor 3. Each child in our school will also receive a book of their own to take home before Christmas.
