Teddy Bear Day is celebrated on 9th September every year. This year in Base Class we had a teddy bear picnic on Friday 30th September. The children loved the idea and had a great day. They brought their favourite teddy bear from home and had so much fun with all the class. There were lots of hugs, laughter and giggling going on in the class and children seemed to have a wonderful day at school.
We all have days when things don't go well in the morning. If your day hasn't gotten off to a good start, please remember to text "Handle With Care" to the teacher or Miss Hanly.
We had a very busy week in school this week for sports week.
We kicked off the week with our annual 6th class vs Staff basketball match. It was a very competitive match but the staff reigned victorious.
Tuesday was volleyball day. Ms Cassidy coached classes on the field. It was great to try out a new sport.
Wednesday was GAA day. David O’Callaghan our coach from Good Counsel GAA club focused on hand passing and soloing. Mr Minogue also did some hurling with classes.
Thursday was dancing day. Kyra from Starlight dancing has been teaching us all over the last few weeks so we finished off with one final dance class for everyone.
We finished off the week with the annual OLOL Olympics. All classes participated in a range of events such as races, basketball, hurdles, welly toss, long & vertical jumps and relay racing. This was the first time we had a full school sports day since Covid and everyone really enjoyed being out around the school together competing again.
Well done to everyone for their participation and enthusiam all week!
We got a great donation of Lava Tiles today for our Base Class. Great fun was had by all.
