Road Safety Talk
The children were visited by Diane from RSA Ireland this week. She informed the of the importance of understanding road safety and the safe cross code, aswell as keeping ourselves safe when we travel in our cars.
Prayer Service
Mr. Maher carried out a lovely prayer service with the students in the school to mark the end of November, the month where we remember our loved ones. The service involved reflection, prayer, and poetry. The children learned that the robin often reminds us of loved ones who have left us.
Chess Activities
Chess is a wonderful activity for these cold Winter days. The children are enjoying playing a simplified "pawn and rook" game to master using these pieces.
