Summer Holidays are here!

We are getting our Summer holidays at 12.00 today. We are having a fun day at school today, with our Nintendos, PSPs and laptops. We are looking forward to the Summer and moving to fifth class in September. We hope everybody has a great Summer, hope we have lots of sunshine!

Our School Tour

We went on our School Tour last Friday. We decided to stay
in Tralee, and had a fun-filled day around the town. Our first
stop in the morning was the Aquadome, where we played 18
holes of Crazy Golf. After that, we went to Tralee Omniplex
to see Prince of Persia.


We were very lucky to have such a fine day, and we walked
to McDonalds after the film for our lunch. Everybody had
loads to eat, and we even ordered desserts! To finish off the
day, we went to Bowling Buddies for some bowling fun. It
was brilliant, as we had our own private jukebox over there,
thanks to Gavin! We had a super day, and everybody really
enjoyed themselves.

We are on Twitter

We started a Twitter Experiment last week with 21 other Primary schools from around the country. It was our first time tweeting and we really enjoyed it. We had lots of fun learning about other counties and towns, and asking other schools questions. We hope to continue tweeting with other schools, and would like to thank Simon Lewis of Carlow Educate Together National School for starting the experiment and allowing us to be part of it.

It's Arts Week at CBS!

This week is Arts Week in our school, where we get a chance to focus on Music, Drama and Art through a variety of activities. We will have plenty to do all week with the school radio, Arts trail, workshops and Wednesday's Variety Show. Our class is very busy preparing to show off our talents, which are plentiful! We are performing two songs from Glee - Dont Stop Believing and Lean on Me at the Variety Show on Wednesday. we are all really looking forward to this. Denis is busy preparing his comedy sketch for the school radio, and Ian will be playing his guitar and singing.

Fit Factor Success!

We went to Dublin yesterday for the Fit Factor awards ceremony. We were looking forward to receiving our prize for winning the Munster title, but were not expecting to also be named in third place in the National Competition. We collected a cheque for €3,000 to spend on Sports Equipment. Ms O Keeffe is seen here receiving the cheque from Aoife Clerkin of Lidl Ireland.

Fit Factor Excitement!

We got the news yesterday that the Awards ceremony for the Fit Factor competition will take place on Tuesday 18th next. We will be travelling up to Dublin by train at 5.20 am. We were all so excited when the venue was announced - The Aviva stadium (seen on left)! It only opened its doors today, so it will be a first for everyone travelling up. There are ten children attending from each class which participated - our class, Ms O Keeffe's, and Ms Flanagan's. The winners will be announced on the day, and we are looking forward to receiving our prize for being crowned Munster winners.
We are hoping that the Fit Factor judges will be in attendance as we are all looking forward to meeting them. We hope to get plenty of photos, which we will post on the blog shortly after the event. Good luck to everyone travelling up, and well done to everyone involved.

Jack is our new Class President! After an extensive election campaign, Jack was elected on Monday. He will be the President for the week, after which we will have another election. His duties as president include;
1. To sit on the Presidential Throne
2. To elect a Vice President and Bodyguard
3. To assist teacher with any duties/messages

Jack has nominated Evan O C as his Vice-President and Evan M as his "bodyguard". He is doing a great job so far. They are pictured here with the "presidential puffles". Well done to all of the other candidates.
