We had a super time today with Christian from St. Brendan’s GAA, Grangegorman.
St. Brendan’s run free GAA sessions every Wednesday evening from 6.30pm and on Saturday mornings from 10am at St. Brendan’s Longmeadows, Chapelizod rd., for children age 4 to 12.
As part of the P.E. curriculum, Junior Infants to 2nd class will take part in Dance lessons for the next number of weeks. We are so lucky here in St. Gabriel’s to have dance teacher Bernie O’Rourke work with our students.
Bernie has extensive teaching and choreographic experience and has worked on many films, musicals, television and theatre productions. Her modules develop dance, fitness and artistic development in the boys and girls. Dance lessons will run from Thursday 4th of March. All children are asked to wear their school tracksuit and runners to participate.
World Book Day is this Thursday 4th of March!
We will be celebrating it in school by doing a book trail in our bubbles and extra reading activities. We will also have book tokens for all!
World Book Day is a long-running successful reading initiative. You can find out more here. The World Book Day website is excellent and is worth browsing. You can also find great activities here.
UK-based charity Read for Good also have some fun reading activities.
