We would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your children for raising £3170.50 for the Marie Curie appeal. This was an outstanding amount for a very worthwhile and deserving cause. The school will receive 3170 daffodil bulbs to plant in our daffodil garden.

Comenius Project

Miss McQuaid, Mrs Cush & Miss Cavlan travelled to Munich in October, to partake in the Comenius Project with teachers from Greece, Italy, Cyprus, Turkey & Germany. They will have the opportunity to visit schools in Munich and observe lessons. On their return the teachers involved will lead project work with their classes. The project examines the effect of modern tourism on everyday life and the environment in the participating countries. The studies are carried out by the pupils of the schools in the participating countries. They produce a report in English and present their results at a final meeting of all the participating representatives. Children will engage in using the latest technology for video conferencing and communication.

After School's Clubs

Since late September those children who volunteered have been participating in After Schools Clubs on Mondays and Wednesdays. They have been enjoying activities such as Gaelic Football, Rugby, Cookery, Computers, etc… This current period of activities will end for the term on Wednesday 3^rd December and will resume again in early January. Many thanks to all the teachers for giving of their time after school and to Miss McQuaid for ensuring the operation runs smoothly.
