We joined with Junior Infants to learn a dance for Halloween. Ms Harris choreographed the dance to Ghostbusters. We really enjoyed learning it and performing it for parents&guardians on the day of our holidays.
Assembly
At this month’s assembly we found out the winners of the Maths Week competitions. The newspaper team presented this month’s newspaper. We also had a wonderful performance of Ghostbusters from 3rd&4th class. And finally the golden child awards were presented to our winners for October.

Nessy Fingers
Ms Parle did a sponsored silence last year to raise money for assistive technology in our school. Some of this money has gone towards purchasing Bluetooth keyboards to use with our iPads to help improve our typing skills and towards Nessy Fingers licences. We are thoroughly enjoying using both to help improve our skills. Big thanks to Ms Parle for organising it and to all those who donated.

We had great fun celebrating Maths week in our school. Check out our STEM page for photos of some classes taking part in different activities throughout the week.
