​In partnership with the Irish Heart Foundation, children in the school took part in a 4 week activity challenge. Every child was encouraged to complete at least 60 minutes physical activity every day. At the end of the 4 weeks, each child received a certificate. The children really enjoyed this challenge!!!

Some information from 5th & 6th class on
​cyber bullying

You need to be thirteen to have snap chat, if you are under thirteen it is illegal.Put it on ghost mode so nobody can see your whereabouts. Don't start bullying people on social media to be cool because you will regret it when you are going for a job .You have to be thirteen to watch you tube and eighteen to have a channel.You have to be twelve to play Fortnite. Don't talk to strangers on consoles and don't give away details to any strangers.
DON'T BE MEAN BEHIND THE SCREEN!!!

On Monday the 14th of May Paula O'Connor came into the school to talk about cyber bullying.First thing before break we went into Miss Walsh's room.
Paula started talking about if there was a kid being bullied then they would be worried in school and online. We learned that the proper age to be on YouTube,Viber,Snap chat,Instagram,Whats app,and lots of other things is 13. Another important message is that our digital footsteps will follow us everywhere. People can look up your profile and scoop up everything about you.

On the 14th of May, Paula O Connor came into our school to talk to 3rd- 6th class about cyber bullying.She travelled from Dublin.5th and 6th class went into 3rd and 4th classroom.She told us about stranger danger and that you should never talk to someone you do not know on the internet. She said to always keep your account private. You have to be 13 or over to have snap chat, Instagram, viber and more.On Snap chat she said to always keep yourself on ghost mode and turn off your location. Never let your friends keep your streaks if there is no WiFi somewhere. We learned lots on how to be careful online.
