Junior Infants enjoyed making bookmarks and choosing books from the class library on World Book Day. They also had lots of fun listening to stories and drawing pictures from their favourite book.

Active School
Active School
The Active School Flag process is a Department of Education and Skills initiative supported by Healthy Ireland which aims to get schools more active throughout the school day and within the local community. We are aiming to achieve our third Active Flag this year.
The children worked together on our Active School Flag slogan.
Jump, hop, run, swim.
Our Active School is like a gym!
Junior Infants know all about Road Safety!
