Straw and Order!

We held our annual Christmas play on Thursday the 14th of December at 7pm and it was a great success. There are many future stars of stage and screen in our midst if the level of acting talent on display was anything to go by. All of the pupils performed brilliantly on the night. As always we were delighted to welcome parents and grandparents and it was especially lovely to see so many of our past pupils back in the school for the occasion. The Christmas atmosphere was enhanced by the addition of Christmas lights to the holly tree in front of the school and we are very grateful to Pamela from the Parents Association for organising them. The Parent’s Association, held a raffle on the night and we would like to thank the following for sponsoring prizes;

Supervalu, Moycullen, Supermacs, Matt O’Flaherty Pharmacy, Sweeny Oil, Wildlands, Galway Cakery, Brigit’s Garden, Moycullen Bookshop, StandĂșns, Justin Keogh, Henry Keogh and Sullivan’s.

All in all it was a great evening. Well done everyone!

Library Van.

All of the pupils love when the library van arrives at the school. It’s a fantastic service that gives the children the opportunity to browse and choose books for the school library. The library van arrived on Thursday of this week amid the chaos of preparations for the Christmas play later in the evening and just before MĂșinteoir Peter arrived for the weekly German lesson. However each of the pupils still managed to have a few minutes in the calm of the library van to pick out books that will add to the reading material in the school library for the New Year.

The Book Fair is here!

The Book Fair books were delivered to the school on Thursday amid great excitement. The pupils enjoyed browsing, choosing and buying their favourites. The books will remain in the school until Friday the 8th of September. If anyone would like to purchase books during the week please contact the school.
