School Athletics News

Last Wednesday October 9th, 35 pupils from Scoil Bhríde participated in the annual Cavan Primary Schools Athletics Cross Country Championships in Killinkere.  After training hard for the past number of weeks, all pupils ran brilliantly, showing great heart and determination.  Although, we did not win any team prizes on  this occasion, Sophie Lynch ran a superb race to finish 5th in the Intermediate Girls. All staff were incredible proud of the effort made by all pupils.     


 

Eco-Fare 2024

We were delighted once again to take part in the Mountnugent ICA Eco-Fare. The children in Junior and Senior Infants drew a picture of their favourite animal and the children from 1st-6th Class created a poster/slogan promoting a litter-free environment. The children’s artwork was then displayed in the community centre. Pictured below are some of our 3rd and 4th Class children with their potted plant that all the children in our school received for taking part in the Eco-Fare. Thank you kindly to the ICA who presented each child in our school with a plant, we are looking forward to next year already.

Our Budding Gardeners

3rd and 4th Class have been working hard planting, watering and looking after our school garden over the past few months. Onions, chives and lettuce are just some of our delicious produce.

School Tour

3rd-6th Class travelled to Lilliput Adventure Centre on Friday 16th June. What a great day filled with fun and mud!

Christmas

Christmas is magical here in Scoil Bhríde, Mountnugent and we want to share that magic with you! 3rd & 4th class have been getting all set and ready for Christmas during the month of December. We’ve been doing some Christmas Art, decorating our classroom, playing some Christmas songs/games and visited the crib in the parish church. We also performed some Christmas songs and jingles for our parents on Thursday 15th December. We sang ‘Rockin Around the Christmas Tree’, It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, a poem called The Fourth Wise Man, Snow is falling and Rudolph the red nosed reindeer. We had great fun performing for our familes and everyone enjoyed being back together again for the annual Christmas performances. We went for a walk down to our beautifully decorated village were we saw all the beautiful Christmas decorations created by local people. It really got us into the Christmas spirit! We would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Kindness Month!

During the month of November, we celebrated Kindness. In class, we talked about how to be kind to one another, ways of being and kind and how to promote kindness within our school. For our art lesson, we created kindness posters with various quotes to promote kindness within the school!
