Maths Week Competition!

One part of our Maths Week activities that is always popular is our Tables Championship.  The children from 1st Class to 6th Class take part in the competition over a few days, which ends in what is usually a tense and nerve-racking final (and that’s just how the teachers feel about it!) Well done to all the children who took part this year with such enthusiasm and and congratulations to all the winners.

Hallowe’en Fun in St. Gabriel’s NS


Everyone had a great time at our Hallowe’en Parade in the playground this year.  There were ghosts, werewolves, vampires, soldiers and even a rollercoaster!

Fire Safety Week 2021

We will all be learning about fire safety this week in St. Gabriel’s N.S. We hope to make sure that we all know how to be careful around fire and that we know what to do if there ever was a fire in school or at home. We’ll do this by practising our fire drill in school and we hope you will chat about what to do in the case of a fire at home.

We will remind ourselves and practice what to do if our clothes or Halloween costumes catch fire.

Many classes will learn how Dublin Fire Brigade are always there to help us. We will look at the work they do, the uniforms they wear and the equipment they need to do their jobs. This year children can help spread awareness of fire safety by entering Dublin Fire Brigade’s monthly colouring / drawing competition. More information and tips can be found at https://firesafetyweek.ie/
