Our quiz team took part in the national final of the CUDA Quiz which was held in Blanchardstown on Saturday 21st April.  They finished in a tie for 9th place out of 20 teams from around the country.   Well done for all the hard work over the last number of weeks.

This week is National Active School Week.  We are looking forward to taking part in a wide variety of activities.  Our Active School Committee has been busily preparing for the week ahead.

Two Junior Infants visited 5th & 6th Classes and performed an Irish conversation based in a shop. Bhí siad an-mhaith.

Best of luck to our quiz team who take part in the National Final of the CUDA Quiz on Saturday 21st April in the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Blanchardstown.  It’s a great achievement to reach this stage and hopefully the questions will suit them!

Well done to our boys and girls who took part in the Offaly soccer finals today in Leah Victoria Park, Tullamore.  Both teams played three matches and all competed with great determination but unfortunately neither team have qualified for the next round.  Well done again for making the finals.
