Congratulations to Ms Slater's 5th Class who were pioneers for the first ever Forest School in St. Cronan's! They completed 6 sessions on a weekly basis, enjoying time in nature and learning while having fun.

There was nature-based games, storytelling, crafts, low ropes, rope swings, use of tools, campfires, making and tasting wild tea and enjoying quiet time in nature to name just a few of their favourites.

Ms Slater and Ms Moraghan are now fully qualified Forest School Leaders and hope to roll out Forest School to more classes from September 2026.

Alan is remembered fondly by his friends and former teachers in St. Cronan’s. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.

Well done to Ms Heneghan’s 4th Class who performed some lovely tunes for their parents on the tin whistle today. They also had a surprise dance for them!

🐝🌼 Happy World Bee Day! 🌼🐝

Today, we celebrated the incredible role that bees play in our world and the importance of protecting these tiny but mighty pollinators.

Our fifth class pupils explored how they could model bee waggle dances to indicate direction and distance as part of their Science Blast project at the RDS last March. They learned about the vital role bees play in pollinating plants, supporting biodiversity, and helping to produce much of the food we eat.

As part of our World Bee Day celebrations, the pupils visited classes throughout the school to share some fascinating facts about bees and to help raise awareness of just how important they are to our environment.

We are incredibly proud of the hard work, enthusiasm, and scientific curiosity shown by our fifth class pupils. 🐝💛🌍
