u12 County Champions

The local u12 team won the county championship over the Halloween break.
They also won the Plunkett Cup earlier in the year.

The team is made up mostly of boys from the school.

We are all so proud of them - Well done boys!

Halloween - Continued

We did various Halloween artwork in the school.

These lanterns were designed by 6th class.





We dressed up for the last day of school before Halloween.

Everyone enjoyed looking really scary and raised money for Temple Street Children's Hospital in the process - well done everyone!


Halloween

We have been getting up to a lot of scary things in the school over Halloween!

The 6th class designed and performed a dance routine to 'Thriller' as Zombies.
I wouldn't like to meet any of these zombies on a walk!






Mystery Skype

The 6th class have taken part in 'Mystery Skype' calls with other classes recently.

So far, they have been in contact with classes from Tipperary and from Belarus.

We really enjoyed figuring out where the other classes were from and giving them clues to guess where we are from!


Ballinamore Hurling Champions Visit the School


The local hurling team, who won the senior county championship came out to visit us and show us the cup!

Pearse, Mark and Darren visited and Mr. Quinn was also on the team.

They are pictured here, along with our 2nd & 3rd classes.





Here they are with our 4th & 5th classes.
