Our school recently had a Supporting the Safe Provision of Schooling inspection. This involved an Inspector from the Department of Education visiting our school to carry out safety checks and ensure that our school meets all Covid-19 safety standards.
On the day, the Inspector met with staff members and visited all classrooms where she spoke to the pupils and asked them questions on our Covid-19 related procedures.
We were delighted with such a positive report. This would not have been possible without the continued support from our school community to keep our school as safe as we possibly can.
The first of our ‘Murhur’s Monthly Parties’ has been a huge success! A party in each classroom helped to make up for the lack of birthday parties this year due to Covid-19. We celebrated the children who had a birthday in September, October and November.
Foxes in the Winter’s Sky was the masterpiece created by 5th and 6th class recently. A mixture of painting, sketching and colouring were used. Beautiful work by everyone!
Colour was the theme chosen by our budding little scientists in the Junior room. They carried out an experiment to find out which sweets would make the best rainbow! Guess what………….Gobstoppers!!
Children in the Junior room were delighted to view a webinar from AgriKids. They listened to stories, played games and learned all about signs around the farm. Check out agrikids.ie
