Best wishes to  5th and 6th class for their Confirmation on Friday 3rd June.

Well done to the girls on putting in a huge effort this year in the Rackard League Camogie. They put in a huge effort and won two of their four competitive games. Their hard work, dedication, determination and skill was clearly seen. They are a credit to their families. Keep up the great work!

Congratulations and Well Done to the 2nd class in our school on recieving their 1st Holy Communion last Saturday. Each child was a credit to their family and their school. Their huge preparation, planning and attention to small detail was amazing to see. Many thanks to all involved including the lovely school choir in making it such a special and memorable occassion. A special mention must be given to 1st class, their class teacher Ms ‘O Neill and their SNA, Ms O’ Connor for the huge amount of work they put in on the lead up to this special day. It is greatly appreciated by all.

First and Second class had great fun planting seeds. We planted cress, peas and spinach seeds. We made small holes using our fingers and placed some seeds into each hole. We covered them with soil and watered them. We placed them in the window to make sure they had enough light.

Look how much our seeds have grown!!!

The boys and girls in first and second class were very lucky to have a very special, woolly visitor come into their class this month. They had learned all about farming, completed farming projects and even watched Big Week on the Farm each night. They were super excited to see Ciara’s daddy coming in with a one day old lamb.

A huge thank you to Willie Doyle for this great learning experience and for answering all of our questions.

3rd – 6th class are sounding superb in their music lessons. All pupils are learning to play the tin whistle. For a lot of them this is their first time learning a musical instrument. We have a great music group formed with a variety of instruments. We look forward to hearing their talents at various school events throughout the year.

Bricks 4 Kids is coming to Kiltealy N.S. on Friday 29th April.

Bricks for kids workshops use lego bricks that kids love to deliver hands on lessons correlated to cross- disciplinary curriculum objectives.

The Bricks 4 Kids approach to learning is imaginative, multi-sensory and fun!!!!

On April 29th we will be welcoming all of our new infants for the 2016/17 year to the school as a part of our new transition programme. This will be the first of 4 visits for the new infants in order for them to get used to their new surroundings and teacher, making the transition so much easier in September. For further information, give us a call!

Fire officers called to the school last week to talk to our 3rd and 4th class students about fire safety. The children really enjoyed it and had lots of questions for the officers.
