Junior Infants and Senior Infants were kindly invited by our principal, Ms. Comerford, to a very special Teddy Bear Picnic in our courtyard today.

We found out the names of and some stories about each and every bear.

Stay Safe Catch-up
Stay Safe Lesson Catch-up
In January 2020 teachers began teaching the Stay Safe Programme at all class levels. The school closures in March meant that teachers were unable to introduce all topics of the programme to children.

In St. Gabriel’s N.S. teachers from senior infants to sixth class will teach the remainder of the programme to pupils between now and Christmas.
