Gospel Night!

Our First and Second Class Choir sang at the Parish Gospel Night on Thursday night.

The Dublin Gospel Choir came to the Church for a big fundraising concert. The children had a great time listening to the great singing.

When it was their turn, our choirs sang "Say to the Lord I love you" and "The Children's Band". They were fantastic and even got a standing ovation!! It was a great night and raised lots of money for the parish.

Assembly

We had a whole school assembly this morning in the Hall. We started with our Morning Prayer and then the First and Second Class Choirs sang us the songs they performed at the Gospel Night.

The tidiest classrooms were announced as Room 1, Room 7, Room 19 and Room 13.

There were then special stickers for the class for coming to school. The Super Attenders for the month of October were Room 4, Room 6, Room 18 and Room 12!

We had a special Halloween Rule this week to help us remember to be safe over Halloween - to wear reflective clothing, to keep a safe distance from bonfires and to stay with an adult.

We had four star students this week, who worked really hard in their classes - well done!
