A wonderful service was held in the school hall on Monday to celebrate the Baptism of Mary. Children from Reception and Kindergarten classes, as part of Come and See took part in the celebration that was the culmination in them enjoying learning about Baptism over the last four weeks. Everyone had a part to play, words to learn, new songs and learning key words for strength, Holy water to wash away the sins, light, Jesus is the light of our world and white meaning pure.

Well done to the 'Gangsta Grannies' from Upper One and Lower One on getting through to the ISA Dance Competition. Lots of hard work put in over the holidays and during school. Special mention to Mrs Walsh for her creativity and energy in getting the girls through.

Intermediate and Transition went to Barleylands for their celebration trip in October. They found out where fruits and vegetables grow and sorted foods into different food groups. We found out how wheat is milled and the children ground the ears of corn into flour then mixed it with oil, water, yeast and salt to make pizzas choosing healthy toppings that grow on the farm It was a very enjoyable day down on the farm!

On Tuesday 3rd October, the junior classes celebrated St. Ursula’s Day with a day trip to Stubbers. All the children took part in a full day of fun activities.  The lower junior classes thoroughly enjoyed open canoeing, paddleboarding, grass sledging and team building activities.
