St. Gabriel’s FUN-draising Day!

We had an amazing Fun Day in St. Gabriel’s NS this year as part of our fundraising initiatives.  All the children could wear their own clothes for the No Uniform Day and this started off the party atmosphere!  Throughout the day everyone got to take part in Party Games, Playground Games and an Outdoor Disco where DJ (Mr) Donnelly had the whole school up and dancing.  All of these activities were topped off with a visit from the Ice-Cream Van.  What a fantastic day we all had!

Thank you to everyone who has returned their donation envelopes already and there is still time to send it back for anyone who has not had the chance yet.

 

Athletes in Training!

Junior and Senior Infants recently went to the Phoenix Park to practise their athletics skills.  While St. Gabriel’s NS will not have our whole school Sports Day this year, that did not stop the children from Ms. Leonard, Ms. Flahive and Mr. Whyte’s classes from trying out the Sack Race, Egg and Spoon and Sprint.  As you can see they had a lot of fun!

School Tours to Dublin Zoo!

This year due to Covid classes will not be able to go on any school tours which involve travelling on a bus or indoor activities.

However, St. Gabriel’s N.S. is so lucky to be located within walking distance of Dublin Zoo! All classes will be visiting the zoo this year for their school tours.

An Aimsir sa rang Naíonáin Shinsearacha

Senior Infants have been learning a lot this month about An Aimsir sa rang Gaeilge

Mr Whyte’s class have been using a green screen to design, create and record themselves experiencing different types of weather and practicing their oral language skills by recording the sentences to accompany the video.

You can see the video along with some behind the scenes pictures below.
