We had an extremely busy and successful Book Week in the school. Brian Og Brady Dawson visited the school on Tuesday 22nd of November to talk about her writing. We had poster competitions, and story- writing competitions. Many thanks to Ms C Byrne for organising these events. We also had a Dress Up Day. This was accompanied by a great day of Halloween activities for all classes organised by the 6th class in the hall. Many thanks to Ms Van Eesbeck and her class for organising this day. Many thanks to all of the children for their wonderful participation. It was a very difficult task to pick out individual winners as the standard was extremely high. The teachers were very busy on the previous Thursday night putting their β€˜Dalmation’ costumes together. We were also visited by a stray unicorn.
