We held our Annual Sports Day on Friday 31st May. It was a terrific day full of spills and thrills! Ms Browne presented each child with a certificate and an ice-lolly for their outstanding contribution and participation. Well done to all!

Cumann na mBunscol 2024
Well done to our boys’ and girls’ football teams who competed in the Cumann na mBunscol blitz competitions recently. Although, results did not go our way, both teams gave a great account of themselves and enjoyed their football!
Curious Minds 2024
We are delighted to receive a SFI Gold Curious minds award for our engagement with Science and STEM for this school year. Here is the message we received from the curious minds team;
“Well done to all at Scoil Bhride for a great range of activities across the school. It is great to see how you are involved in community activities such as the Eco-Fare. It is also particularly good to see how you have used measurement and technology as part of activities such as baking and learning about other countries, showing that STEM skills are relevant to so many different things that we do in our lives.”
Well done to all the teachers and the children for engaging so well with all the activities. Congratulations!
Trip to Dáil Éireann
5th and 6th Class pupils enjoyed a trip to Dáil Éireann on Tuesday 7th May. They were greeted at the gates of the Dáil by local TD Johnny Guirke and were shown around the grounds before our official tour.
Pupils completed The 1916 Easter Rising and The Irish Free State units in History which aided them in understanding their tour. They also did projects on each of the sixteen Taoisigh.
It was a very enjoyable day and one which they will always remember.
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.
World Champions!
During the Easter Holidays Cody, Aaron and Ryan competed in the World Irish Dancing Championships in Glasgow. We were delighted to welcome them back after the Easter holidays as WORLD CHAMPIONS!! This was achieved by hours of practice and hard work and all in our school community are extremely proud of the boys.
New Books!
As we had a successful book fair back in October, all the classes were able to add to their book collection. We were delighted with the new additions to our class library.
