We had a special treat on Friday the 13th of December when the Sam Maguire Cup came to visit us in St. Brigid's! This is our sixth visit from Sam but the excitement among the pupils and staff had no way diminished this time round. The girls got lots of pictures taken with the cup. Hopefully it will be back again next year...Up the Dubs!

2nd Class were very busy learning all about Space. The children made fantastic displays and presented their projects to the class.

All of our classes joined in some festive fitness fun as part of our Active Schools Programme in the school. Some activities included a santa sack race, icicle hockey, jingle bell jumping, tinsel tubes and a bauble and spoon race! The girls really enjoyed the day!

A big thank you to all the families who donated gift-filled shoe-boxes to the Christmas Shoe box Appeal. A massive 295 shoeboxes were collected.

The shoeboxes will be sent to children living in very difficult situations in different parts of Africa and Eastern Europe. A big thank you to Noel, our caretaker, for co-ordinating this worthy cause again this year.
