Our P1 children had some very special visitors today to celebrate International Nurses Day! We traded our pencils for stethoscopes as we learned all about the amazing work nurses do to keep us healthy and happy.
We welcomed Saorlaith’s mum Clara and Cara, who led us through a morning of hands on activities including
🧸 The Teddy Bear Clinic: Class bear Spencer and his brother weren't feeling their best, but our P1 nurses were on the case! From checking "fluffy hearts" to applying colorful bandages, the bears are now on the road to recovery.
👂 Nurse Says: We practiced our listening skills with a high-energy game. We learned that nurses have to be great listeners to help their patients feel better!
🩹 The Mystery Nurse Bag: Using only their sense of touch, the children guessed what tools a nurse carries.
We definitely have some future healthcare heroes in our midst! 👩⚕️👨⚕️
A huge thank you to our visiting nurses Cara and Clara for inspiring our little ones and making International Nurses Day so memorable.

This week, our P7 pupils were treated to a Confirmation Retreat, delivered by Sarah and Jay from YI Initiatives. The children enjoyed reflecting on the meaning of the seven sacraments, playing games and focussing on the sacrament of Confirmation to help the children understand the sacrament they are about to receive.
We learned all about Pentecost, symbols of the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We ended the day with a special prayer service in St. Brigid’s Church. Jay and Sarah were particularly impressed with the knowledge of the children and the reverence they showed throughout the day.
