Senior infants were delighted to be able to bring in their favourite teddy from home, for a teddy bears’ picnic. They chose to sit outside in the grass area in the warm sunshine. They ate their picnic while showing off their teddies to their friends. Afterwards, they also took part in a bubble disco. What a fun time! (more…)
It was the turn of fifth and sixth class to have their school tour. They took a very picturesque route by cycling along the quay, on the Greenway and out to Clonea Beach. We are so lucky to have such beautiful scenery on our doorstep. Whilst at Clonea, they got to paddle in the water, play rounders and eat lunch. Afterwards, they were treated to ice cream cones which topped off a wonderful day. (more…)
Senior infants enjoyed beautiful sunshine on their school tour. First stop was at Dungarvan bandstand, where James entertained them on his penny farthing bicycle.

Finally, they got to have another play in the playground before heading back to school. A great day was had by all! (more…)
