We visited various classrooms, took part in science experiments. baked buns in Home Economics room, had a basketball competition, made bookmarks in the Metalwork room and played bingo and did a treasure hunt with the Maths teacher.

We were treated to buns, biscuits and sweets and we all had a hot lunch before we left.

Children's Reading Festival!

On Friday the 6th October 5th & 6th class went on a visit to Cavan County Library to listen to a Storyteller called Pat Ryan.

Pat Ryan has worked as a storyteller, writer and teacher for over three decades now. His practice has developed through the influences of family and friends in America, Ireland and Britain where he collected stories and studied storytelling all that time.  He draws on traditional stories and storytelling content, and the nature of his storytelling is conversational, informal, thoughtful, educational and great fun.
