Over the last number of weeks, Fourth and Fifth class have had the pleasure of Miss Nelson teaching them some lessons each day. The lessons were great fun and educational. Miss Nelson finished today and taught the children a lovely lesson about the harp and they were treated to a fabulous performance to end the day. Thanks Miss Nelson!

Fifth and sixth class are busy getting back to work for the new school year but there is still plenty of time for some fun outside. This week we took part in some athletics stations outside on the yard and in the astro. Take a look at us all enjoying ourselves.
Needless to say our Skipping Around Europe Initiaitive was a huge success in our school this year. The children got stuck in, started skipping and got better and better as the weeks went on. It was great fun and the children had fresh air and movement daily. We are very well prepared and excited for our annual visit from Mark Mc Cabe from Skip n' Rope in June. I say he will be very impressed by all the great skipping that has gone on in Kilbride. Well done boys and girls. Keep it up!
The children enjoyed a visit today from Aisling Dempsey TD. Our sixth class pupils are Ambassadors for the Ombudsman for Children and as part of their work this year, Aisling was invited to our school to talk to the children about how everyone has a voice. and her experience to date in politics. The children enjoyed this talk and asked many excellent questions were asked.
The children created a painting of a winter moon and tree silhouette. They mixed colours to create the effect and produced some wonderful winter work!
A huge congratulations to al of the boys and girls in fifth and sixth class for all of the hard work that they put into their amazing projects.
