It is hard to believe that today is the last of our 3 week summer camp. We have had so much fun and learnt a lot!
A special thanks this week to Michaela from Sentinus who helped us make our own space rockets which we launched; to Aoife Garvey who presented us all with Certificates of Achievement for our drumming progress; to Vanessa from the AmmA Centre who taught us about animation and we made our own movies; to Kathleen from An Tobar who helped us brighten our school and homes with beautiful flowers and to Sinead who gave us another wonderful art class today! The pictures are fantastic.

Thank you to all the parents for their support over the past three weeks and we hope that the children have enjoyed the last 3 weeks! We also hope that everyone enjoys their summer and stays safe!!

Week 1 of our summer camp is complete and what a week it was! The happy faces in these pictures say it all. Everyone had so much fun and lots of brilliant memories were made this week for all involved. We hope next week is just as great.

A special thank you to Aoife Garvey with the African drums, Niall from the AmmA Centre teaching about “Sound Maps” and the art teacher Sinead Campbell of “The Art and Design Factory.” Your workshops were brilliant and we are so thankful.

A reminder of times for any new children starting next week:

Summer camp starts at 9:30am and finishes at 2pm.

P4 children are to be dropped off/picked up in the nursery car park.

P5 and P6 children are to be dropped off/picked up in the main car park.

Day 2 of our summer camp completed and what a brilliant start we have had! From African drum practice, sound map workshops and different sporting events in the field; there were lots of happy faces heading home. We hope this great weather continues for the remainder of our week! Here’s a snap shot of the last two days.
