Well done to Oisin Coyle, Cadhla Moore, Annie Smith, Ciaran Woods, Hannah English, Patrick Fegan, Aoibhríona Grimley, Kealan Hughes, Jack O’Reilly, Dara Breen, Finn Morrisey, Mya McGurgan, Colm Farrell, Ethan Breen, Ben O’Hara, Donncha Breen, DJ Boylan, Danny McArdle, Ryan Cox, Lorcan Smith and Ella Tighe.
We also congratulated a few super determined pupils last week who doubled and tripled their personal targets! Well done to Eabhí Woods and Tara Gray who both doubled their targets and to Dara McElvanna who tripled his target. Incredibly, P6 pupil Ellen McKenna has now quintupled her personal target. WOW what an amazing achievement Ellen!
The effort made with Accelerated Reading last week was exceptional. Keep up the fantastic reading boys and girls so that we can all look forward to attending the whole school movie day in December.
