We had a beautiful Christmas celebration in the Mercy Secondary school last Tuesday. 
The children sang Christmas songs depicting the story of the Nativity, while 1st class did a freeze frame of the nativity scene. 
It reminded us all of the true meaning of Christmas and why we celebrate it.

We have Been very fortunate to be one of 7 schools to receive ‘Free to be me’ Little Library of approximately 100 books.

Children’s Books Ireland aim to build a love of reading. The ‘Free to be me’ project enables our students see themselves reflected in a book, as well as learning about the lives of others, who’s experiences and perspectives might be different from their own. Here is just a sample of the books. The little library is on display on corridor 3. Each child in our school will also receive a book of their own to take home before Christmas.

Dia daoibh a chairde, 

We have had another great month and are making great strides at being ag caint as Gaeilge. Since we didn't have assembly this week I will put the pictures of our Gaeilgeoirí na míosa and also some videos of comhrá agus rannta.

We've had a very busy few weeks in senior infants. Last week we visited the library in Richmond Barracks where we got to pick some books. Each child also received a lovely pack from the library.
We have also been very busy this week as it's maths week and we are learning all about 3D shapes. We made some shapes using toothpicks and marshmallows. 
Finally, after working very hard all week, our Clever Clogs table won table of the week and were delighted with their certificates.
