Trip to the beach

6th class went on a trip to Killiney beach on Friday with both Mr. Breathnach and Ms. Farrell. They collected rocks that are going to be decorated for their confirmation and then will be used for the sensory garden in the school. This trip is one in a collection of walking trips we will be doing to explore amenities in our locality as well as keeping fit.

UCD Science trip

In an effort to promote the study of Science with girls, 6th class girls went on a trip to UCD. We departed by bus to UCD where we were met by Liz Griffin. She took us on a tour of the campus that is home to 35,000 students. We visited the gym, swimming pool, students union, arts building, library and even visited a lecture hall. Following this we did an experiment in a science lab. We had lovely lunch in the cafe and went home after 1pm. It was truly a fantastic day and the girls were so well behaved.
