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.
Cumann na mBunscoil Final
Well done to our boys’ football team who represented our school community so well in Breffni Park last Friday evening. Unfortuntely we were not the winners on the day and were defeated by Currin NS. Winning is lovely but there is also learning in losing too and it’s an important part of life. Far more important than winning is the memories and camaraderie this group of boys have created for themselves. Congratulations to Conor O’Reilly who had a player of the match performance in our goals, pulling off some inspirational saves never seen before in Breffni Park! We are immensely proud of all our boys’ achievements, but we are even more proud of how they have represented our school community and that goes for all our children who supported the boys in Breffni park last Friday too. That’s a real, lasting winning feeling.
Sports Day Fun
What a brilliant day we had for Sports Day! The sun shone brightly and we all had great fun. Congratualtions to all our pupils for their Outstanding Efforts on our Sports Day. We are looking forward to next year already!
Making Hay when the Sun Shines!
Congratulations to the Mountnugent u13 Boys Football team who won their league final last Tuesday 30th May on the 3G pitch in Breffni Park. This fantastic group of players have also qualified for the Cumann na mBunscoil Final! What better way to round off the week and make the most of the sunshine than a trip to Smyths for an ice-cream cone and a walk to our river. How lucky we are to have such a clean and bright village to visit!

Peace Proms 2023
On Sunday 5th February our 5th and 6th Class travelled to the RDS in Dublin to take part in the Peace Proms.
The children performed with the Cross Border Orchestra of Ireland and a host of top soloists in a concert on the day. The children sang with a choir of up to 3,000 children and worked with one of the UK’s leading professional conductors – Greg Beardsell. It was noisy but brilliant! Thank you to our Board of Management and Parents Association for subsidising the cost of the bus and thank you to our parents that travelled to see us, we hope you all enjoyed the show!
