Operation Transformation
Mr. Lowery is giving out flyers on Thursday about a 3 or 5k walk on Saturday January 7th in Porterstown Park. It’s open to any age and will help kick off all those the new year resolutions. Its a perfect distance for all our lunch time runners!
Carol Services 2016
Thank you to all the Parents and Grandparents who managed to attend the Carol Services this year. We hope you enjoyed the beautiful carols as much as we did. We want to congratulate all the children on their good behaviour especially the Junior Infants who had to perform on both days and our outstanding school choir who delighted us all by singing four carols. We have a few more pictures on our flickr page which we will add to.
Tinsel Thursday
Tomorrow is Tinsel Thursday. Wear a hat, ribbon, scarf or jumper to celebrate Christmas and make a small €2 donation to the homeless this Christmas.
Carol Services A and B
Carol Service A is tomorrow at 11am. We ask that all adults sit in the eaves of the church. If people insist on standing it blocks everyone’s view. Also please remember to keep emergency exits clear.
The classes attending can be viewed here
Christmas Cribs
We want to thank all the children who made such wonderfully creative cribs this Christmas. We had cribs constructed from toilet rolls, clothes pegs, pasta ,clay and dough to name but a few materials. Children will be called down to collect their cribs tomorrow.
Christmas Crib Exhibition 2016
This year’s Christmas crib exhibition was a fantastic success!
So many of the children in the school took part and took the time to make beautiful, creative cribs.
We have put together a video showing a selection of the cribs.
Thanks to all the children who took part.
Santa’s Visit
Santa arrived in school today and settled himself in the Library to read a few books but he was soon joined by all the girls and boys in Infants. He chatted to each small groups , asking if they were going to leave him any food on Christmas Eve. He then gave them a little surprise for being so good in school. Here are a few pictures from Ms. Doyle’s class as they visited.

Our New Crib
Today Michele and Catherine from the PTA assembled our new crib in the foyer. We then invited one class to sing carols while David Galvin, the eldest boy in our school lit the Christmas candle. It was then the turn of our youngest pupils, Conor O’ Hara and Vidya Robinson to place the manger and Baby Jesus in the stable. Click the picture for a short clip.
