In April we celebrated Autism Acceptance month. It was a month where everyone in our school community came together. The parents hosted a coffee morning. The children and staff enjoyed lots of fun activities, celebrating how wonderful we all are together. We explored values like friendship, acceptance, inclusion and understanding. The children in our Autism classes and mainstream classes joined in classroom activities together. Check out how we got on in this short video:

Bhí ceol álainn le cloisteáil againn ag an Tionól. We all came together for our very first whole-school assembly of 2022. The children all sang, laughed and some even played the spoons for us. Dan presented his “Principal Awards” to some children who really excelled this week. Tá gach duine sa scoil ag deánamh sár-iarracht Gaeilge a labhairt i gcomhair seachtain na Gaeilge. We are really looking forward to our Lá Glás next Wednesday. Scoil Náisiúnta Ardán Fhearchair ag Foghlaim le Chéile abú!

We had a fantastic couple days this week celebrating World Book Day! There were lots of imaginative costumes and the children loved sharing their favourite book with their friends. We were also delighted to visit Rathmines library and look forward to many more visits. Check out the video to see some of the different fun activities from this week!

We had a super pancake Tuesday in Harcourt Terrace today! All the boys and girls were so excited and loved getting to add their favourite toppings to their pancakes. They gobbled them up so quickly but we did manage to get some photos, check out the video to see all the fun we had today!

Last week in school all classes celebrated and learned about Chinese New Year and St. Brigid’s Day. There were so many nice activities taking place throughout the week and we captured a few of them to share here!

All classes learned about how 2022 is the Year of the Tiger and lots of creative tigers were spotted around the school.

The dragon is believed to bring good luck in Chinese culture and 2nd class made some fantastic chain link dragons!

For St. Brigid’s Day there were lots of lovely different activities, such as making St. Brigid’s cloak in art and acting out St. Brigid’s story in drama.
