Trip to The National Museum of Ireland!
The children from Mr.Gallagher’s class went on a trip to the National Museum of Ireland last Thursday. Here they learned about style and fashion dating back centuries. They took part in a detective style game answering questions relating to style and fashions from the past. The children really enjoyed their trip!

‘Oliver Twist’ comes to St. Gabriel’s!
Today the children and staff of St. Gabriel’s were very lucky that the theatre came to us in the school! The cast of M & M Productions put on a wonderful show and really brought Charles Dickens’ story ‘Oliver Twist’ to life.
All the children really enjoyed the show, especially when The Artful Dodger tried to pick one of the teachers pockets! Well done to two of our 3rd Class pupils who became pickpockets for the performance as well.
