Credit Union Quiz National Final
Following on from their wonderful performance at the Tulllamore Credit Union Quiz, our senior team took part in the national final in Portlaoise on Saturday 1st March. They performed wonderfully well again, and in a very close contest with twenty two other schools from all around the country taking part, they came in third place. Well done to the team for all their hard work over the last number of weeks. We’re all very proud of them.
Mid Term Break
The school will be closed for the mid term break from Monday 17th to Friday 21st February.
It’s been a very busy few weeks in all our classes. From nature walks to pizza making, planting bulbs to celebrating Grandparents’ Day, Valentine’s Day and lots more, we’ve certainly packed a lot into every day. Take a look at some of the photos below and read the other posts beneath to get a flavour of what has been going on.
