Last Friday we visited Kilmainham Gaol. We have been learning about Kilmainham Gaol this past month. In Kilmainham Gaol, we saw where the 1916 leaders were executed. It made us feel uneasy as if we were standing on their blood and their presence was all around us. We saw the old wing and the new wing of the Gaol. Our tour guide got us to walk in a circle outside in the courtyard to mimic the exercises prisoners used to do. We were allowed to walk around the museum at the end of the tour and we saw Grace Gifford's ring as well as other artefacts from the Gaol.

This month, Senior Infants have been working really hard and having lots of fun in Maths! We have been focusing on sorting different objects and creating patterns. Each lesson is playful and engaging, giving the children plenty of opportunities to explore and learn in hands-on ways. Maths time is always a highlight of the day, and the children really enjoy discovering new ways to sort and make patterns. Keep up the fantastic work, Senior Infants!

5th class were in charge of leading assembly this week. 
They did a wonderful drama of a story connected with Richmond Barracks in 1816. Hot air balloons were newly invented and the English sent them over to Dublin to cheer the soldiers up after years of war.

Inchicore Library is such a valued part of our school community. We are regular visitors to the library and the staff are a wonderful help to us sourcing books for our children to read. 
We cannot wait to use the new and improved library space they have created.
