Today, 3rd class and a number of other classes paid a visit to Technological University Dublin as part of Space Week. They took part in a workshop with the Armagh Planetarium, learning all about our solar system, planets, stars and much much more. In addition, the class tuned into the ARISS radio link between pupils from various primary schools and Japansese astronaut Takaya Ornishi on board the International Space Station.

A big thank you to Ana and all in TU Dublin Access & Outreach. It was a wonderful experience!

Today, 3rd Class paid a visit to our school library to use their new school library cards. A huge thank you to Ms Delaney and the parents who helped for the hard work they did in setting up the system. Now all parents can see the books their children have out on loan in their Aladdin Connect app.

The rain held off and the children in 3rd Class had a wonderful day out in Blackhall Place for our Sports Day 2025. They enjoyed sprint races, sack races, tug of war, yoga, football and much more! Check out some photos below.

A huge thanks to Aibhínn Conway, Head of Community at Bohemian Football Club, for a wonderful guided tour of Dalymount Park today. The children had a wonderful time with many wearing their Bohemians FC jerseys.

Today Mr Smyth’s 3rd Class took part in super Easter Maths Quiz organised by Education Support Centres in a number of counties. It saw hundreds of pupils across Ireland take part via zoom. The quiz posed some very interesting Easter themed Maths problems and riddles to solve and the children had fun working out the problems.

As part of Fabric and Fibre in Art, the children in 3rd Class are completing their weavings using the cardboard looms they build in class last week. Check out some of the cool and colourful completed weavings they have created!
