The Parents Association were very busy the past few months preparing for our Table Quiz night in Parnells GAA club on April 6th. There was a fantastic turnout on the night with lots of fabulous prizes on offer! The school would like to offer our sincere thanks to all of the parents who worked so hard to ensure the Quiz night was a success. We would also like to thank all the local businesses for sponsoring tables and donating prizes. Lastly, thank you to all those parents who were in attendance on the night and to those who offered their support in the lead up to the event. Your support will make a big difference to the school, raising much needed funds for our new computer room.

THANK YOU!

Our Junior and Senior infants classes had so much fun today taking part in an egg hunt. The girls even brought in their own bunnies from home to join the hunt! The girls had to find their teddies and then look for lots of chocolate eggs hidden around the school grounds. Afterwards the girls danced and sang some songs in the yard!

We are all looking forward to an exciting week ahead - Active Week! Therefore, the girls are invited to wear their school tracksuits each day as they will be participating in daily activities.

On Sunday 23rd of April, the girls are welcome to take part in a 2km Junior Fun Run in St. Anne's Park. You will need to register online and it is a free event. Best of luck to those of you who enter!

On Monday & Friday, all parents are invited to join in our whole school 'Wake up Shake Up' sessions which will begin at 8.35am in the school yard. Some classes may also have invited parents/grandparents join them for playground games on Monday at 9am in the yard.

During the week the children will participate in a huge range of activities from yoga to cricket, tennis to ultimate frisbee. An Active Picnic will take place on Wednesday for all the classes.

On Friday the girls are invited to wear their county colours for Jersey Day as they play some GAA. The girls are also encouraged to walk/scoot to school on this day.

Other activities throughout the week include Pilates, Tae Kwando, Irish Dancing and a Skipathon! 

A very Active Week indeed. Special mention of thanks to Ms.Howard and the Active School Committee for coordinating Active Week and for organising such great activities for the teachers, pupils and parents to enjoy!
