Fantastic Fundraiser
We held a special fundraising book sale for the Childhood Cancer Foundation this week. All the different classes got the chance to donate and buy books for this worthy cause. Well done and a big thank you to Rachel, Aleksandra, Lily, Christine, Aoife, Elsa, Claudia, & Gali in 5th and 6th class who organised the fundraiser with such thoughtfulness, care and efficiency.
A Visit to Microsoft’s DreamSpace
This week 5th and 6th class visited DreamSpace at the Microsoft Ireland offices. We had a great time discussing how technology intersects with our lives and how it will affect jobs in the future. We had a tour of the Microsoft building and discussed its architecture and how people work there. We also learned how to code 'Sphero' robots and engaged in challenges in pairs. It was a fantastic day!
Reading with Friends
5th and 6th class kindly wrote stories for the infant class. They then visited the infant class and read their wonderful stories. Everyone had such a lovely time together!

It was a great send off for the the children and we wish them the best of luck in secondary school next year!
