Well done to our 5th + 6th class girls who took part in the annual Cregmore basketball blitz. The girls won 2 out of 3 group games to secure a place in the top 4. They met Maree NS in the semi-final where their day came to an end. We were all treated to goodie bags to finish out a wonderful day.

Sports Day 2026
Sports Day 2026 was a roaring success. Organised by Ms. Keogh + the children of 6th class, the children participated in numerous games, races and fun activities. We were so lucky to welcome Irish paralympian Shauna Bocquet to our sports day and talk to us all about her journey to Paris 2024 and what the future holds. To finish out a wonderful day, the Parents Association treated us all to some fabulous ice-creams. Thanks to all for making this a memorable day!

CHAMPIONS
A huge well done to our hurlers who won their Cumann na mBunscol final today over Scoil na bhForbacha today. A wet day did not put a dampen on either our players or supporters. A fantastic achievement!
Manning Cup
Children from infants to 6th Class travelled to Bushfield last Thursday evening to take part in the Manning Cup.

A sincere thank you to Loughrea Athletic Club for hosting another excellent competition as always.

School Book Fair
Our school book fair was a fun week for all classes, filled with choosing and reading books. Everyone enjoyed exploring new stories and sharing their love of reading.
Our school marked World Down Syndrome Day by wearing colourful odd socks to celebrate inclusion and individuality. The children also made generous donations to Down Syndrome Ireland, supporting a very important cause.
As part of Seachtain na Gaeilge and in the lead-up to St. Patrick’s Day, our school marked Lá Glas by dressing in green to celebrate our culture and heritage. Students and staff came together to sing songs and recite poems in Irish. The older children also took part in a Tráth na gCeist and thoroughly enjoyed it. Maith sibh do gach duine a ghlac páirt!
Well done to all of the children who took part in World Book Day! 📚✨
From fantastic costumes to lots of reading and sharing book recommendations, the day was full of fun and imagination. Some pupils enjoyed buddy reading with the younger children, and we even had a whole-school walk to celebrate the day together.
A wonderful way to celebrate our love of books and stories. Well done everyone! 👏📖

Well done to the 26 students from third to sixth class who took to Galway Racecourse for Day 1 of the Galway Primary Schools Cross-Country. Some tough hills did not deter our students. Well done boys & girls!
We support and stand in solidarity with our wonderful secretary Ann and all secretaries/caretakers across Ireland as they take to the Picket for action against Pension Parity. Ann plays a vital role in the daily running of our school and deserves parity of conditions with other staff.
