Open Day 
We will be holding our annual Open Day on Wednesday 15th March from 2.00 p.m. until 3.00 p.m. A warm welcome is extended to all our new Junior Infants.
 
Book Fair
The Book Fair will be in school from Thursday 9th March until Wednesday 15th March, World Book Day tokens can be used at the Fair and the school will receive commission from the book sales.
 
Dress for Denim Day
On Friday 10th March we are going to support The Alzheimer Society of Ireland by holding a ‘Denim Day’.  Children can wear their denim clothes into school for €2 donation.  Please see attached note.
 
World Book Day
Thursday 2nd March was World Book Day.  We held a huge Book Quiz with everyone from Junior Infants to 6th Class.  Lots of whispering, head scratching and moaning going on but as well as promoting reading and having lots of fun, as always it was lovely to see how kind and caring our older children are towards out smallest ones. 
 
Something Fishy
We welcomed representatives from Inland Fisheries Ireland for this year's Something Fishy visit.  The children enjoyed this visit immensely.  Inland Fisheries have asked for permission to use photographs taken on the day for promotional use.  If you do not want your child’s photograph used, please contact the school as soon as possible and let us know. 
 
Pancake Tuesday
Thank you so much to the wonderful group of Mammies for coming in to school on Tuesday to cook and serve us up the most delicious pancakes. Fortunately the rain stayed away long enough for us to go outside for our annual pancake tossing races.
 
African Drumming
We had a noisy but fun treat for everyone at our African Drum workshop on Monday past.  There was lots of loud banging and chanting.  Thank you to Barra O’Flannaigh from Slí na Croí.
 
Engineers' Week

Next week is Engineers' Week and the children from the Senior Room will be visiting the Letterkenny Institute of Technology for a very exciting show called 'It's all done with mirrors.'

Dates
St. Patrick’s Day – School will be closed on Friday 17th March.
Easter Holidays – School will close on Friday 7th April and will re-open on Monday 24th April.
