St. Mary's Primary School Dungarvan

Senior Infants had an absolute ball on their school tour today ☺️ lots of naps were had on the way home 😴

Junior & Senior Infants were very lucky to have a taster session in Dungarvan GAA club this morning. They had so much fun they can’t wait to go to Well Kids tomorrow at 11. A big thank you to Pa, Nicola, Lauren, Alex and Regan for a great session today. Also a big thank you to Pitchside Coffee for the ice-pops to cool down afterwards. ☀️ ⚽️

Mrs. Barry's 1st Class were delighted to use our new set of tablets to research bridges around the world before constructing their own. The creativity and innovation the boys the girls showed blew us away. They worked as part of a team and had to brainstorm problem-solving solutions to ensure their bridge could hold a toy car. Future engineers without a doubt! Maith sibh go léir.

Thank you to our Student Council who organised "Fun on the Grass" on Tuesday to make the most out of the sunshine. The pupils showed great initiative when setting up the stations and recorded a video for teachers to explain what was required at each station. Planning our Sport's Day will be next on the agenda for the Student Council.

Sincere thanks to Shauna and Laura who spoke to our junior pupils about the importance of taking care of our teeth yesterday. Lots of food (not sugary!!!) for thought.

Well done to all our athletes who took part in the final of the West Waterford School's Sports in St. Augustines College this evening. Our pupils showed great team work, resilience and determination amongst the very best runners in West Waterford. Thanks to Mrs. Barry, Mrs. Ryan, Ms. Moynihan and Ms. Harty who mentored the boys and girls and to the parents for all the support.

Second class had a wonderful time at their communion party. Thanks to Ms Harty for her super organising!

Well done to the camogie team who fought hard in a shield final last week. Unfortunately it wasn’t their year but their hard work was obvious and they never gave up. Well done girls and keep up the training!

Well done to all our athletes who took part in the West Waterford Primary School Sports Region 1 Heats last night in St. Augustine's College. A special thank you to the teachers who trained them, their families for the support and to Silvia and all the organisers. We look forward to the finals on Thursday 28th May.
