On Thursday 13th June we enjoyed a whole-school talent show. Another fantastic suggestion by our student council. There was a wonderful array of talent on show – from comedians to break dancers, inventors to singers, there is no doubt that this is one talented bunch!
W.O.W.
As part of our ACTIVE SCHOOL Campaign and our HEALTH PROMOTING SCHOOL Campaign and as part of our ‘Transport’ Theme in our GREEN SCHOOL’S Campaign, our whole school take part in WOW (Walk on Wednesday)on the first Wednesday of each month. It’s a great way to come together as a school community, getting some exercise and having a chat with our friends before school commences. Look at some of the pictures below!
Crazy Hair Day
The boys and girls had great craic on Friday 9th February for our ‘Crazy Hair Day’. A huge well done to everyone for taking part!
Halloween 2023
A huge well done to all of the boys and girls who took part in ‘Trick or Treat for Sick Children 2023’. We raised an amazing €267.30 for this very worthy cause and had great fun in the process!
School Disco
On Friday 9th June the children were delighted to attend our first ever school disco arranged by our student council. The student council organised disco lighting, the playlist and of course some disco accessories for each student. The photobooth was a particular hit with the students – have a look at the photos below!!
Sports Day 2023
On Thursday 8th June we travelled to Donaghmoyne Fontenoys GAA club for our annual Sports Day. The children (and teachers) had great fun taking part in various races and stations. A huge thank you to our past pupils who helped organise the day. Well done everyone!
Sewing
This term, Debby has been teaching sewing to the children in all classes. We can’t believe how skillful they have become in just a few shorts weeks, and it’s clear how much they are really enjoying it!
Autism Awareness Day 2023
Spirits were high on Friday 28th April 2023 in St. Michael’s National School as we celebrated our third annual Autism Awareness Day. The children in each class took part in various lessons to raise awareness of autism. They learned what autism is, how to communicate with someone who has autism and how we can make school life easier for someone with autism. The teachers were so impressed with how children engaged with the lessons, and how much knowledge they had retained from last year.
We are so proud of our inclusive school!
Accelerated Reader
Congratulations to our star readers for the month of March – Isobel, Kyle and Luke.
Our class readers of the month were 3rd and 4th Class.
Well done everyone!
