Our Infant classes visit Sea Life Aquarium in Bray
Junior and Senior Infants had a wonderful day out on our school tour to Bray. We travelled there on a double-decker bus. We walked the sunny promenade to get to the aquarium.
There was such an amazing array of sea-life to be seen. We saw lobsters, crabs, sea-stars, urchins, terrapins, big-bellied sea-horses, dogfish and cardinal fish. You might spot some of them in the photos below.
It was very interesting to hear all about the clever octopus named Pat. Some of us saw him figuring out how to open a box to take out his lunch!
We spent lots of time watching the tank of cow-nose rays.
In the final water tank we even spotted some reef sharks!
At the end of our tour of the aquarium we were surprised and excited to meet a pig called Peppa!
We enjoyed a lovely picnic together on the seafront before getting back on the bus to return to school.

Junior & Senior Infants – Fun Day!
Visit to Collins Barracks
2nd and 3rd Class had a lovely morning visiting Collins Barracks. We visited the Little Houses Exhibition and were delighted to see the fabulous artwork of both past and present students. We are all very proud of Manase, whose work showcases in the exhibition. 
Summer Performance
The school’s Summer Show took place on the stage yesterday 14th June in our school hall .
The children performed a fantastic range of songs, poems and dances for a huge and enthusiastic audience.
Well done to all the performers and a massive thank you to all the parents and guardians who came along to support the children. A raffle took place too- congratulations to all the winners!
Congratulations to our debating team!
Well done to the St. Gabriel’s NS Debating Team who won the Blackhall Place Inter-Schools Debate on Monday the 13th of June in the Law Society.
They debated against St. Paul’s Brunswick Street in the final. The motion was “Social Media is a benefit to primary school children” and St. Gabriel’s NS opposed it.
They worked very hard, made some great arguments and won the tournament.
Well done!
