Dance
We were lucky to have Michelle Sarsfield working with us in the lead up to Christmas. Each class had the opportunity to explore different types of dance. We held a whole school performance on Michelle’s final day and we even got the chance to see her dance!
Hallowe’en
We had a fantastic Hallowe’en. We held a sponsored Hallowe’en walk and raised EUR2,000 for our school. We also enjoyed pumpkin carving, ducking and other Hallowe’en treats.
