First Year Irish Quiz

The First Years recently took part in a Tráth na gCeist as part of Seachtain na Gaeilge celebrations. The year group were divided into teams of five and were challenged by various rounds of Sport, Music, Geography, Television and Film and General knowledge. The students enjoyed listening and answering the questions as Gaeilge. Well done to the winning team of: Oliwier Jakubiec, Amy Reid, Rebecca Santos Horan, Sarah Amond, Darragh Brennan and James Cranny. Runners up were Martina Sulkowski, Paulina Sulkowski, Leah White, Amy O'Hara and Jamie Cullen. Míle buíochas to the Meitheal leaders and student council for helping out. 

First Year Céilí

On Lá Glas (Green Day) Ms. Ryan, Ms. Breen and Ms. O'Driscoll's First Year Irish students made their way across to the Gaelcholáiste to take part in a céilí. The students watched some dancers perform some traditional Irish dancing including sean nós. The students learned some moves themselves practiced them by dancing together. A great event to end Seachtain na Gaeilge. 

Treasure Hunt

As part of Seachtain na Gaeilge the Third Years completed a treasure hunt. Ms. Ryan carefully devised a range of clues and hiding places all over the school. The students were divided into teams of three and had to translate the clues and go to various rooms all over the school. Well done to winners Evelina Simkute, Emma Duffy, Rachel Kelly, Jack Geoghegan and Caitlin Wall. Also well done to runners up Jamie Condron and Oisin Shannon.
