We are going on mid-term break tomorrow. We hope everyone enjoys the fun and games of Hallowe'en.
​Below is a short video of school activities taken from the much longer one made to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the school. This 5 minute video was shown recently at the AGM of the National Association of Boards Of Management in Special Education. (NABMSE) which was attended by Minister Jan O'Sullivan
Thanks to James Clenaghan for producing this edited version of our video

The great thing about being located in Galway city is that there is so much for the pupils to see on the weekly bus outings. There is a choice of natural habitats- woodland, the riverside, hedgerows and the seashore all within a kilometre of the school. There is a great variety of old and new public buildings that they can visit and of course lovely playgrounds where they can exercise and develop a range of physical skills. 
This week classes have been attending events in the Baboró International Arts Festival for Children. So far pupils have really enjoyed the experiences.

​Next week some pupils are going to the IMC cinema to an event organised by Galway Autism Partnership.
