Ms. Burke’s 6th

Friendship February

St Joseph’s Student Council would like to thank everyone for the amazing effort during our Friendship February initiative to promote kindness in our school.
During Friendship Week we hosted a Funky Friends No Uniform day and raised an amazing €730.55 for Special Olympics Ireland.

Badminton Club Update

The St. Joseph’s Gorey Badminton Club is thriving with more members than ever before! Open to 5th and 6th class students, our club has been buzzing with excitement as we focus on improving our doubles game skills. The team has been working hard in preparation for the upcoming Leinster competition in January, and everyone is giving their best effort during practice. Recently, we were fortunate to have Garry from Leinster Badminton visit the school to lead a special training session, offering valuable tips and techniques to help us reach our full potential. 

September Completed

  • Thank you Siobhan and Orna, our super SNAs in our classroom!

We have been in school for one whole month now, and we have done a lot!
We have started to learn and practise our letter sounds.
We fixed Humpty Dumpty! We had our first Hip Hop class and loved it. Maths stations is always lots of fun. Some 6th class pupils joined us for stations and did some paired reading with us.

We really enjoyed all of our PE lessons, following the crazy path and throwing beanbags at a target. There were no casualties surprisingly!

The 26th of September was SNA appreciation day and we really appreciate Siobhan and Orna who are working in our class this year. Thank you!
