Projects
Posted on6th class each completed a project on an individual of their choice who has overcome a significant challenge in their life or who faces a significant challenge daily in their life. They created their projects using Google Slides and then presented them to the class.
The individuals chosen by 6th class such as Ellen Keane, Messi, Walt Disney (to name a few) are all examples of role models we can look up to. We felt very inspired when listening to everyone’s project.
Take a look at the projects below.

Poetry Competition
Posted on6th Class entered St. Francis Hospice’s poetry competition ‘Our Value’s in Verse’ recently. They were asked to compose a poem which reflected on one or more of the following core values: dignity, respect, compassion, collaboration, excellence and kindness. Ms. Kidd was delighted to receive an email that Grace, Conor B.G and Conor C’s poems had been longlisted, along with Hannah and Frank’s poems in Ms. Jones’ class. Their poems will be displayed in St. Francis Hospice.
We look forward to hearing who makes the shortlist next week!

Investigating Santry River
Posted on6th class were learning all about rivers in geography and science recently.
