Our Senior Choir treated all in school to a fantastic performance this afternoon. They sang their four winning songs from the Feis Ceoil.

Planting Money Trees: Room 34
The children in Room 34 planted some Money Trees today.
Ms. Harvey very kindly brought in soil, planting pots and small plants for the children.
Money trees are considered a symbol of good luck and prosperity so here’s hoping they bring some good fortune to their new homes over the coming weeks!
