They compiled their research into a beautiful timeline, which can be found on the corridor, between the Senior and Junior Rooms. Some of the headings that they explored are Ancient Music of Ireland from 2500BC to 800BC, 1792 The Belfast Harp Festival and Francis O’Neill – Bantry to Chicago.
The eight week block of swimming classes has begun! Friday the 29th March saw pupils from Senior Infants to Sixth class board the bus for swimming lessons in the Celtic Ross.
In preparation for swimming lessons, students of the Senior Room prepared Water Safety Leaflets and a presentation board in the Foyer. Be sure to stop and take a look next time you are in the school.
Best of luck to Seamus Ronan, who will appear on Winning Streak on Saturday 23rd March.
