Have a look at what's happening in our school.
To mark World Oceans Day 2026 we took part in an Online workshop that highlighted the wide range of professions dedicated to protecting and understanding our oceans. We learned about people who work in maritime industries and got a chance to hear about the challenges they face in their jobs.
As part of our celebration for Cumann na Bunscol week 2026, every pupil in P1-P7 got a copy of the re-launched Saffron Óg magazine. Thank you Paudie Shivers and all at CnaB for this brilliant initiative.
Thank you to Ria and Christine from the Youth Services who held a really interesting transition project for our P6/7's on Tuesday.
This week we continued our intergenerational project with the Tuesday Club when we had an art project facilitated by one of its members- Russell. During the session, Russell taught the children all about caricatures. Thank you to Patricia from the Tuesday club and Russell for a great afternoon. We look forward to continuing the project next year.

Please see the infographic from the Department of Education on the importance of sleep for children. Getting enough sleep is important for health, learning, and wellbeing. Primary school-aged children (5–11 years) should aim for 9–12 hours of sleep per night while teenagers (13–18 years) should aim for 8–10 hours per night. A regular sleep schedule can help improve concentration, memory, mood, and academic performance.
