Sports Day in Gorey Show Grounds
We had a wonderful day in Gorey Show Grounds for our 2018 Sports Day. The sky was blue and spirits were high, with not a cloud to be seen. Well done to all of the boys and girls for their great efforts on the day!!
5th & 6th Class Gaelic Leagues
It’s that time of year again. Gaelic leagues are in full swing, the competition is tough and excitement is building as we wait in anticipation to see who will lift the cup this year. Best of luck to all competitors!!!
Green School Energy Week
As part of our Green School’s campaign, we had a Green School Energy Week. This took place from Monday April 30th to Friday May 4th, ending in Green Day when pupils were asked to wear green to school.
We had a Green Schools slogan competition with one senior winner and one junior winner. Prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in both categories will get a prize sponsored by the Parents’ Council. Winners announced shortly.
Classes also learned about renewable and non-renewable energy and ways of saving energy. Some classes played a game available from Wexford County Council and provided by SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland) to further consolidate this.
As part of our policy, two energy wardens from each class fill out an Energy Warden Checklist daily.
Pupils were also made aware of an energy talk in Gorey Library on May 15th. This talk was given by Three Counties Energy Agency. A link to their website can be found here.
The pupils learned an energy kit can be borrowed from Gorey Library. This kit helps with saving energy in the home. It is sponsored by SEAI.
Well done to everyone for their hard work.
