Seachtain na Gaeilge took place in the school from 9th to the 13th of March.
Monday – Musicians came to the school and demonstrated the basics of Irish music and Dublin based ballad singing. Many thanks to them for facilitating that.
We had bingo at lunchtime.
Tuesday – T-Rex from Gaelgory came in and entertained 1st and 2nd years with their songs and dancing. Many thanks to them for their time and energy.
Wednesday – We had a quiz in the hall as Gaeilge; well done to the winners
Thursday – We had a céilí in the gym where we witnessed great enthusiasm and dancing talent!
Friday – We spoke about the Gaeltacht and gave out prizes, and also had a look back on the week.
TYs were given their fáinnes which were well deserved after all their hard work and exam in January. Comhghairdeas libh go léir! They then relaxed with Yoga as Gaeilge, many thanks to Óga Yoga for coming in and helping us relax.
Thanks to all students who participated so well in all activities and really got into the spirit of seachtain na Gaeilge. Maithe sibh!
A huge thanks must be given to the Gael Squad who ran Seachtain na Gaeilge in collaboration with the Roinn na Gaeilge teachers. Maith sibh a chailíní, bhí sibh iontach!
Many thanks to all who facilitated Seachtain na Gaeilge, including all staff and in particular Ms. O’ Donnell and Mrs. Lennon.
Grá don Ghaeilge go deo!
“Caith Amach É”
Tá ceardlann eagraithe do mhuintir an séú bliain don Luan an 19ú Eanáir. Ceardlann drámaíochta atá ann atá bunaithe ar na sraithpictiúir atá á ndéanamh ag daltaí sa scrúdú cainte don ardteistiméireacht. Seo é an cheathrú bliain a bhéas an ghrúpa “Caith Amach É” ag teacht isteach sa scoil agus ag cabhrú le daltaí leis na sraithpictiúir. Baineann daltaí an-taitneamh agus tairbhe as gach bliain agus táimid ag tnúth go mór leis an gceardlann arís i mbliana.
There is a workshop organised for sixth year students for Monday the 19th of January. It’s a drama workshop that is based on the sraithpictiúir that students are working on for their Leaving Cert Irish oral exam. This is the fourth year that the group “Caith Amach É” will be coming in to St Mary’s helping students with the sraithpcitiúir. Students always get great enjoyment and benefit from the workshop and we’re looking forward to hosting it again this year.
