Tuistí Rang 2-6 / Parents of 2nd to 6th Class



We started knitting last Friday (24.04.2015) with the children from 2nd to 6th class.   2nd class are busy making their tin whistle holders, they are welcome to start on the squares for the “blankets of hope” once they have the holders finished
We have asked the children to cast on 20 stitches and to knit 20 rows. They should end up with a square that’s between 10cm and 11 cm. We will then join them all together to make the blankets which we will give to the charities for children undergoing chemo. The more squares the better so if you would like to dig out the knitting needles and get knitting please do and send the square in with your child to school.

We will be back again on Friday (24.04.2015) to make further progress we hope.. please do encourage your children to bring the knitting home and do a line or 2 in the evening and also bring into school so that they can do if they have any free time.

The wool shop in Kinsale has 6 sets of needles left if you haven’t got needles. Please remind you child to bring the knitting in on Friday.

Glantachán Earraigh / Spring Clean 2015



D'éirigh go hiontach le ranganna 3+4 ag glanadh trá Bhaile an Ghearóid ar an 16/04/15. Bhailigh siad thart ar sé mála lán de bhruscar (agus crann Nollag amháin!) Ár mbuíochas leo. Tá ár gcósta ag féachaint i bhfad níos glaine anois. 

3rd and 4th class were very successful with their Spring Clean on Garretstown Beach and managed to collect 6 full bags of rubbish (and one Christmas tree!) Well done to them. Thanks to them our beautiful coastline is now a lot cleaner.

Rang 2 - Céad Chomaoineach / 2nd Class - First Holy Communion

Ón tAthair de Siún / From Father Young:

Do this in Memory Mass

The Third Week of Easter

Mass dates and times:

Saturday 18/03/2015 - Gaelscoil and Dunderrow, 6.30 p.m.
Sunday 19/03/2015 - Scoil Naomh Eltin and Summercove, 10a.m.

The children and parents are asked to read pages 62 & 63 of the Thumb Book.

Gospel: (Luke 24; 35-43)
An account of Jesus appearing to the disciples after his resurrection

This week also (18/03/2015)  Fr. Robert mentioned that he will say the prayers before and after Communion; the children have started to learn these, so maybe let them know that they can join in on Saturday if they wish.

On Communion Day

1. It is requested that no photographs or recordings be taken in the church before or during the ceremony; it can sometimes be too much of a distraction for the children.
2. A photographer has been booked to take a group photograph at the end of the Mass so please stay on for this if possible.
