                      Grandparents day 2026 !! ♥️

The boys were absolutely delighted to welcome their grandparents into school for Grandparents’ Day. They were so proud to show them some of their wonderful work and colourful artwork, sharing all the effort they have been putting into their learning. It was a joy to see them engaging in a fun activity together. The boys also sang the songs they have been practicing. They were so excited to have their grandparents there, and we would like to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who came along to make the day so special. 

                           Multicultural week🌍

Throughout Multicultural Week, the boys enjoyed a wide range of engaging activities that celebrated cultures from around the world. A fun multicultural quiz was set up, where the boys learned some new interesting facts. The boys from Mr Walsh’s class gave a wonderful presentation on India to the Senior Infant boys, sharing information about the country’s traditions and culture. French Day was another highlight, where the boys tasted delicious French food and created fantastic drawings of the Eiffel Tower. They also spent time learning about Moldova, discovering its culture and traditions and some of the boys in the class brought in food from their culture for us to try. It was a great week that broadened the boys’ understanding of the world around them ! 

The boys were revising their new sounds using snakes and ladders ! 🐍
