We were delighted to welcome Kevin Crowley from inland Fisheries Ireland to our school today. Kevin spoke to the children about the different types of fish, plant and animal life that inhabit our waterways. The children learned about the various threats to our rivers and lakes and also about what can be done to protect our native wildlife. The children really enjoyed the presentation and we hope to meet Kevin again and go on a field trip to a local river later in the school year.

The children engaged in the West Mayo cross country in Murrisk in the beautiful sunshine in September. This term also featured a thrilling Maths Week and the Balla Blitz with 5th and 6th class. We have had fun-filled Halloween activities that sparked creativity and learning. Overall we had had a very successful, fun and enjoyable term.
We hope everyone has a well deserved break over the Halloween midterm and we look forward to welcoming all our students back on November 4th for another exciting and educational second term.
