It’s finally here! 6th class students v teachers in a 4 challenge competition. All you have to do is record yourself doing the challenges that the two Paddys are doing below and WhatsApp them to the school mobile number. Each challenge you complete is worth a point so every bit helps. There are 22 6th class students and 22 staff so it’s a fair contest. You have until 2pm today to get your videos in for it to count. Best of luck everyone!  

Despite not being able to celebrate sports day together, we hope students will try a few events that have become classics in our annual fun sports day such as the Blindfold challenge and Mr. Kinsella’s obstacle course. We have two videos below. Junior sports day for Junior Infants to 2nd class and Senior sports day for 3rd to 6th class. Please send a photo or video of yourself doing 1 of the events shown to enter the weekly competition. Don’t forget to finish with the hot dog!! Best of luck to all.  

So we come to the final video in our Healthy Ireland Health and Wellbeing Programme on mindfulness. It is safe to say that the videos have been a great success and we are delighted to see the photos and videos you have sent your teachers. We hope you enjoyed the series and remember you can continue to access these sessions here on our school blog and continue your mindfulness journey over the summer months. Wishing you all a happy, safe and peaceful summer! Namaste 🙂  

This year, as we can’t be in school, we are asking all students to take part in the Mini World Cup at home. All you need to do is to record yourself scoring as many penalties as you can in 30 seconds and send them to the school mobile phone through WhatsApp. Your score will be added to others on your team from different classes. Don’t worry if you haven’t a ball or goal, we show you in the video below how to do it without them. PLUS WE HAVE A SPECIAL GUEST SHOWING PADDY HOW IT’S DONE! Get your videos into us before Saturday night – and best of luck!  

Today we are encouraging as many students as possible to get down to the beach and see what you can find. To enter the competition, please send in a photo with 4 unusual stones or 4 sea shells. Ms. O’Brien and Ms. Travers have already made it down and are showing what they found below. Always remember to be safe at the beach and don’t go alone! Good luck everyone.
