As a new Board of Management formed in December, we very sadly said goodbye to our former chairperson Mrs. Maeve Gallagher. Maeve worked diligently behind the scenes for the past 14 years. We would like to thank her for her warmth and wisdom throughout these years and wish her health and happiness during the next stage of her life.
The children in Junior Infants were busy last week making Christmas cards for the residents of Ratoath Nursing Home. They walked up to the Nursing Home to hand deliver the cards and wish all the residents and staff a very Merry Christmas. Our senior choir also made a visit and performed some Christmas songs to get everyone into the spirit of Christmas.
There was great excitement in school this week when Santa made a surprise visit. He arrived into the yard on his sleigh with Rudolph guiding the way! We were delighted to hear he just has a few more presents to pack and then he’ll load up the sleigh, feed the reindeer and start his journey around the world to deliver all the presents.
We couldn’t be prouder of our girls’ team and their coaches for retaining the title of the Meath Cumann na mBunscol Division 1 final for the Third year in a row! The girls were up against St. Paul’s from Navan in the final and won by an impressive eight points! A massive congratulations and thanks to everyone involved.
Ms. Preston’s First Class were very busy learning all about money this week. They’ll be buying and selling us in no time!
Last week was Maths Week in the school and the children had great fun doing lots of extra fun maths activities. Have a look below at some photographs from the week. We put in a maths puzzle at the end to get your brains working!
