Coolbock & Taunagh were treated to a magic show by Fred The Party Professor, teaming up as part of their @ScienceWeek which has turned into a Science month! Fred entertained & captivated the audience with a show full of magic, science, maths, music, drama, the arts & comedy!

The Junior Room had great fun learning about the North & South Pole in their #aistear Polar Regions theme. The children learned about & played with polar animals, pretended to be famous explorers & mapped their expeditions from their Polar Explorer's Camp @PDSTLiteracy

They wrote lists of all the things they would need, read lots and lots of stories and much more. We did some art activities inspired by the Polar Regions although the children now know that polar bears and penguins do not exist together!

Great to have you visiting us @FireSligo . The younger children are when we teach them about #FireSafety the more likely it is to stay with them for life.

Great excitement when the victorious @shamrockgaels Intermediate Champions visited with the cup. They took part in a special Q & A session with the pupils, with some interesting insights on the hard work needed in becoming champions! @sligogaa @SligoGAACandG @cnmbshligigh

The children had the privilege of being the first to visit a very memorable World War I exhibition, to celebrate Armistice day, in Ballymote Library. Huge thank you to Eithne and all the staff who gave us a tour of the library and an insight into life in World War I. @sligolib

Super outing to Ballymote Fire Station. The children really enjoyed looking at and learning about all the machinery that the firefighters use. They had fantastic fun spraying water from the hose and also climbing into a brand new shiny fire engine! @FireSligo
