Happy Easter

The Easter Bunny paid us a visit this week. He left clues around our school - so we went on an Easter Egg Hunt! We were very clever and solved all the clues. Great fun had by all. 🐣🐰

Happy Easter to everyone, enjoy the holidays 🐣🐰

Barlow's Organic Farm

Students taking part in the 'Towards Inclusion Pilot Programme' certainly had the Friday feeling ! Our first trip of the project didn't disappoint. We met in the shadow of one of the last castles built in Ireland, Glinsk Castle where we learnt a little bit about its history before we took a stroll through the beautiful Glinsk Heritage Park. Many thanks to our fantastic guide Marty, for sharing his knowledge of the area and pointing out the signs of Spring. Next up, we headed to Barlow's Organic Farm where we were greeted by our wonderful hosts Marie and Jimmy Barlow. The children loved exploring the farm and meeting the animals, particularly holding the chicks and feeding the lambs. Lastly, we headed into the farm kitchen where the children had a go at churning butter and we were treated to a delicious feast of home made delights, courtesy of Marie and our very talented cookery teacher, Maria Fitzmaurice. Many thanks to Marie and Jimmy for their warm welcome and for opening their home to us. A fantastic way to spend a beautiful spring day!

'Towards Inclusion pilot programme'

We kicked it off with some Spring inspired games to get the students moving and having some fun. Next it was down to the serious business of creating a logo for our project! It was lovely too see the students chatting as they created their designs. We cannot wait to see the end results!
