4th Class Term 2

Friendship Day / Bí Cineálta Day

Our school marked Friendship Day/Bí Cineálta Day with great enthusiasm across all class levels. Fourth Class teamed up with Senior Infants, and the groups worked together to plan their artwork before getting started. The corridor became a hub of activity as we created and decorated a large poster filled with positive messages about kindness and respect for one another.

World Book Day

World Book Day was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone, with the children embracing the chance to dress up as their favourite characters. This year, a number of pupils chose fun group costumes, including the Minions, Gingerbread Man and Gangsta Granny, adding plenty of excitement to the day. The creativity and effort on display were impressive, and the children looked brilliant.

Grandparents' Day

One of the standout moments was Grandparents' Day, when grandparents joined us in our classrooms for an enjoyable visit. We spent time together playing games and chatting. The children performed 'You are my Sunshine'. It was a lovely occasion, and everyone had a very enjoyable time, finishing off with tea and scones.

Credit Union Quiz / Cumann na mBunscoil Quiz

Liam, Senan and Ceoladh achieved an outstanding result in the Cavan Credit Union Quiz, where they took 1st place against strong competition. They didn't stop there — they went on to represent Cavan in Ulster, where they proudly finished in an impressive 4th place. This is a fantastic accomplishment.

Liam, Senan and Hazel also represented Castletara in the Cumann na mBunscoil Quiz.
