Christmas is coming

30/11/2014

Yes it is definitely beginning to feel a lot like Christmas here in St Joseph's ever since we started rehearsing for the school concert which will be staged here on Dec 16th at 11.00am. The pupils and staff are hard at work and we hope to give a great performance on the day.

Before that however there is another important event which we hope will be well attended. This is the fundraising concert which will be held in the St Nicholas' Collegiate Church on Friday December 12th. The Kiltullagh Community Choir will entertain the audience with songs to suit all tastes. The tickets are €10 and the concert starts at 8pm. Come on time as a few pupils from the school will be singing before the choir.

On Tuesday Susanna visited the school with felt making equipment. She had everything from raw wool to a spinning wheel. The school was divided into groups with each one having an opportunity to make some felt. The process was long, simple but very engaging. Both the children and staff enjoyed it very much.
Check out  pages from Junior 4 page Senior 2 for some more photographs of Susanna working with the pupils.
Thanks to Pauline Dolly for organising this project.

As a follow up to the new healthy eating policy all classes will be learning this week about foods that are good for you and some that are not so good. At the recent parents' association meeting healthy eating for children was discussed briefly. Information leaflets and booklets supplied by the health promotion unit of the HSE and by CROÍ were available on the night. We will send some of these home to those of you who were unable to attend. Please take the time to look at the suggestions on healthy eating options for children.
click on  http://www.safefood.eu/ for more information on a healthy diet.

St Joseph's Healthy Eating Policy can be downloaded from the policies page on this website.
