​ART and POETRY WINNERS 2022/23

We had an Art and Poetry competition at the start of the school-year to show off that St Lachteen;s NS is Active, Healthy, Green, Friendly and Creative. Well Done to all the pupils that took part and here are some of the winning entries....

5th & 6th Class - Touch Typing

'This year, 5th & 6th class pupils are learning touch typing. Each morning, the students spend 10-15 minutes practicing their typing skills, even using tea towels to cover their fingers to make sure they cannot look! They are also doing 10 minutes of typing for homework each evening. The programme we are using shows each student's individual progression, with certificates for each section completed. It will be great to see the students' improvement over the coming terms. 

Senior Infants 2022/2023

Senior Infants have got the new school year off to a great start. They have been busy working on ipads, taking their learning outdoors and doing lots of creative art work. Here are some photos.

Junior Infants 2022-2023

This morning we were absolutely delighted to welcome our new Junior Infants to St. Lachteen's. Have a look below at some photos to get a snapshot of some of the activities they did today.

Lots of fun in Mrs McCarthys Room! 

We are having lots of fun exploring and trying out new things . We particularly love our classroom tent, we can relax in it, read stories or play with the cuddly toys. Some of our favourite activities are pulling the suckers off the radiator and playing with the smooshy sand in the tuff tray.
