Ms.Corry’s 2nd class played their in -class Maths games outside yesterday. They had fun honing their maths skills in the beautiful sunshine.
When the days are warmer the children get thirsty in school. Please send two water bottles as we only have one water station to refill bottles from.
Pupils from the Garden Class were delighted to be joined by students from 6th class today on the church green to plant some lovely flowers and plants in a special sensory section on the Church Green.
Margaret from the Castleknock Tidy Towns Association was onhand to provide expert guidance and assistance as to where each plant might grow best.
They planted rosemary, sage, lavender, heather, a scented yellow rose, a large Poppy and a variety of carnations.
Pupils from three of our classes made their communion on Saturday in a beautiful ceremony. They were prepared by Ms.Keane, Ms. Mc Keown and Mr. MacCann. Afterwards there was tea, cake and treats in the Sports Hall for everyone. Our thanks to Fr. Damien, Fr.Denis, Olive, and Mary for making the ceremony so special, to Rosie and the PTA for the lovely refreshments and our caretaker Mr. Ivers for preparing the hall. Congratulations to all the boys and girls.
The 4th class camogie team had their first training session this afternoon in glorious sunshine in Russell Park.
The girls will be training and playing some matches over the next number of weeks. Between the 4th, 5th and 6th class girls, camogie is alive and well in St.Brigids!
The girls from St. Brigids GAA ( including many of our pupils )were very lucky to play a camogie demonstration for a special visitor in Farmleigh today. What a great photo to treasure !

Our warmest congratulations to our past pupil Tara O’Hanlon who was called into the Senior Women’s Ireland squad. What an achievement @CastleknockCC. We couldn’t be prouder.
To celebrate Seachtain na Gaeilge, our 5th Class girls footballers went to Russell Park today. They played a challenge game with Scoil Oilibheir and then both teams were taught to dance a traditional Irish dance during a Céilí in the hall.
