5th and 6th class went on their school tour to Shannon River Adventure, Thursday the 18th of June. Under the supervision of safety instructors, the children took part in land and water based activities. They started their adventurous School Tour with activities such as, scream races, obstacle courses, archery, rock climbing amongst other playground challenges and games. They later had a light snack before starting their water based activities such as mud sliding, pier jumping, canoeing and kayaking. The students of 6th class reported that their final school tour was one of the best they ever had. -Tommy Clancy of 6th Class.

Last week, our 5th and 6th Class pupils hosted an amazing Cultural Day in the school. Each group worked very hard to create a project about their country of heritage or a country of their choice. The children proudly shared traditional clothing, artefacts, arts and crafts, music and delicious food from around the world. The hall was filled with wonderful colours, sounds, smells and smiles, creating a fantastic atmosphere for everyone to enjoy.
A huge thank you to all the parents and families who helped make the day so special by sharing their culture with us and especially for providing such delicious traditional foods. Your support and generosity were greatly appreciated. It was a wonderful celebration of the diversity in our school community, and we hope this will become an annual event in the years to come!
A huge congratulation to 6th class students who took part in the Abbvie STEM prize for 2025 last school term. The aim of the competition was to inspire primary school pupils to think about challenges in their localities and to use skills learned in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math’s to come up with solutions that will make a positive impact. Our School took part in a beach clean up with Flossie and the Beach Cleaners who are a Dublin based environmental group who offer workshops and beach clean up days across the country. The children analyzed the rubbish they had found into categories, made pie charts and used their creative Science minds to design new equipment for younger people who take part in the beach clean ups. We were delighted to heat that we had won the prize of new Science equipment for the school, a fun interactive Science workshop in the school for kids and a funded trip to an SEAI research center as well as a visit to our local Abbvie plant nearby.
A few reminders of their last day as Primary School pupils- our 6th class held a graduation ceremony and walked through our traditional alleyway of applause to meet their parents and head off. Very proud of them and we wish them the very best on their new adventure at Post Primary School.
