This year Mrs Garrihy's and Mrs Hogan's 6th classes, Mrs Hehir's 5th class and Mrs Young's 3rd and 4th classes are linking with a school in Croatia. We already had a zoom call with them, giving reports on our school, town, county and country. The students in Croatia informed us about their town, community and school. They have ran to Ireland and now we are running there! It will take approximately 1,800km to reach Croatia. We are currently 237km of the way there, approximately 1/7 of the journey. Here is a map we drew to illustrate our journey. |
At a time when home, family and nature are more important to us than ever , this painting by Alisha Cahill, 6th class, illustrates the beauty of the world around us.

One Tree Per Child’ wants to have every child planting one tree as part of a primary school activity. '
‘One Tree Per Child’ is an international tree planting initiative. It was started by Olivia Newton-John and Jon Dee, the original founders of National Tree Day, in 2015 Kilrush is first town to introduce the One Tree Per Child project in Ireland. Each child is given the opportunity to plant a tree during their time in primary school. In 2017, 376 trees were planted by all children attending primary school in Kilrush and in 2018, 66 trees were planted by new pupils. This is the 3rd year of this event and 50+ native trees were planted by all children who were newly enrolled in in September 2019. As the children grow their trees will grow with them. Early March was chosen as the planting date as it is the recommended time to plant trees. |

The JESSIESThe JESSIES is a project being held in Primary Schools throughout County Clare which encourages the holistic development of the children and which benefits them personally and educationally.
The ability to work as part of a group, the capacity to show flexibility to achieve ones goals and the drive to give of your best for the team are qualities which will serve the children well throughout their lives. The sponsors of the JESSIES strongly believe that the spirit of an entrepreneur lies in the hearts and minds of every child. Through the JESSIES project children are given the opportunity to identify and unlock their entrepreneurial skills. This year 6th class had some amazing business ideas to present in front of the Dragons. The ideas included: Bath Bombs, Car Wash, Pom-Tastic Creations and Cardboard Creations. Each group presented their idea, giving an outline of the project, costs, marketing, manufacturing and time involved. After much deliberating the dragons hard a hard decision to make but they eventually decided on 'Bath Bombs'. The JESSIES Showcase day is in June and here are some photos of the products being made that will be on display. |
