A review of 'The Voyage' by Ethan Douglas, 6th Class

The play third to sixth class went to see in The Solstice Theatre, Navan, last Tuesday was called 'The Voyage'.
It is about the adventures of a boy named Jack and his dad. When Jack’s dad gets taken by giants, Jack has to go on an adventure to save him…
In rough seas, Jack washes up on the shores of Lillyput and makes an unexpected friendship with Captain Little. As you can tell, she is very little!
Captain Little promises to make a flying machine to help Jack get his dad back. When Jack finds his dad, he saves him and flies home. They encounter problems on their voyage home but they overcome their problems and arrive home safely together.

Happy Halloween!

Well done to all of the boys and girls (and their parents!) on the fantastic costumes in St. Patrick's today! A massive THANK YOU to the Parent's Association for organising goodie bags, prizes and the guess the amount of sweets competition! 

Finally, we are sad to say goodbye to Hannah Ayoubi today as she is moving to a new school after the midterm. Best of luck Hannah!

My First Book of Irish Animals

Today the children in the Junior and Middle rooms went to Trim Library for a talk with Juanita Browne about her book, My First Book of Irish Animals.  The children all LOVE this book and it was really exciting to meet the author. She spoke about the animals in her book, showed us some really cool antlers, played a guessing game with us and even showed us a real bat she found at home! It was a really interesting and interactive afternoon!
