3rd - 6th Class pupils were delighted to welcome back James for more rugby coaching over the past few weeks. The pupils participated in fundamental movement skills and activities, passing drills and team games. We are very grateful to Kilfeacle & District RFC who are providing the coaching programme in the school. Many thanks to James, the club's Games Development Officer, for his excellent coaching sessions. We can't wait for some more rugby after Halloween!  We were delighted to participate in two virtual workshops via Zoom delivered by Rebecca from the Sea Synergy Marine Education Centre in Kerry. These workshops focused on Ireland's whales and dolphins and there was even a real time squid dissection. We also worked together in groups to complete projects based on the predator/prey relationships of sperm whales/squid, humpback whales/herring, orcas/seals and dolphins/salmon, which we presented during the second workshop. Once again, thank you to Rebecca for giving us the opportunity to take part in such an interesting and worthwhile programme!  The school office was invaded by a strange character on Friday who attempted to take over the secretarial duties. The verdict on their computer skills, phone manner and clerical expertise was unanimous - they're not a patch on the real school secretary...  5th & 6th Class provided us with many interesting and colourful characters on Friday. We had scary clowns, witches, wizards, soccer players, evil dolls, Minecraft characters, rugby players, a banana, zombies and a dancing T-Rex even made an appearance! Happy Howl-oween everyone!  Creepin' it real in the Infant classroom where we had lots of very cute monsters, villains, superheroes, cartoon characters and princesses on Friday!  1st & 2nd Class had a spooktacular day in school as they prepared for the upcoming Halloween break!  An unbelievable amount of different characters turned up in 3rd & 4th Class to celebrate the start of the Halloween holidays. Have a look at their fangtastic Halloween costumes!  Junior and Senior Infants had lots of fun playing parachute games on the new astro turf!   |
