Our Wellness Wall
During this time of uncertainty we feel it is so important to look after each other and ourselves.
Múinteoir Siobhán Mulhall has created the most beautiful 'Wellness Wall' for us.
We have all written what we are grateful for on a leaf and each one is hanging on the wall.
Not only does it help us to remember the many things we have to be grateful for, it also brightens up our days every time we walk past it. We can't help but smile each time we see it! Thank you Múinteoir Siobhán M.!

5th and 6th Class Book Reviews
This March and April, during School Closures due to the Pandemic of Covid-19, the pupils in 5th and 6th class have worked extremely hard at home.
The class have enjoyed spending quality time outdoors with their families in the beautiful weather and they have also been busy with their school work. One of the tasks they were asked to complete was ‘to write a book review of a book they have read over quarantine’.
The children kindly decided to share their reports, in hope that it would inspire others to get reading or encourage them to read their chosen book review novel.
The pupils included the following information in their reviews:
Title, Author, Illustrator, Publisher, Chapter and Page Numbers, Main Characters, Setting, Short Summaries, Personal thoughts and Opinions, Recommendations and Ratings.
Check out their wonderful book reports below.
Happy reading - We hope you enjoy!
