Wishing Ms Daly and Ms Courtney the very best with their Amber Flag fundraiser tomorrow. Thank you both for all your hard work.

Science Week in the Green Classroom

Fifth and sixth class attended the science week zoom for Curious Minds science show and the 'Meet the Scientist'.

We found the talk by Dr Michel Dugon, Professor in Zoology NUIG, very interesting. He spoke about:  What happens to your body when you’re bitten by a venomous snake?

We also did some fair tests in our classroom, and a fun, but very tricky STEM challenge!
