Wexford in Bloom - School Garden Winners 2012

On Friday 10th October the school received the great news that it had won the 'gold medal' for the 'School Grounds / Garden' category of the Wexford in Bloom Festival 2012.



The award is just reward for Ms. Mullins, Eleanor Egan and Colm Ó Muirí from the SEFRC for all their hard work done with various classes in the past twelve months. This is the second year in a row that the school has been acknowledged, as it won the silver medal in the same category in 2011.

Gaelic Blitz

On Friday 21st September the 3rd class and the 3rd & 4th Class took part in a Gaelic Football Blitz. It was held in the Clonard pitch in Coolcotts and we took a bus up to the field. The day was rotten because it was a bit rainy at the start and got worse before it got better again. The bus was a bit late and when we we got up there the gate was locked anyway so we were in loads of time.

We were all divided up and mixed in with the children from the other schools to make up the teams. We got back to the school by break which was good. We had a nice time at the Blitz even though it was rotten weather for the start bit.



On Friday 5th October we went back up to the same field to finish the Blitz. This time the weather was better and we had a great day. Our teachers took pictures and made them into a film with music that you can see just below.
