2nd Class Christmas Shows

Well done to all the children in 2nd class who took part in their Christmas show today. Thank you to their teachers for all the hard work in preparing the children.






Sports Conditioning Programme

Over the past few months the children in 1st and 2nd classes have completed the Fingal County Council Sports Conditioning Programme. They have learnt lots of new exercises and activities but most of all they had a lot of fun. We would like to thank Owen McGrath for all his time.

Santa Came to Visit!!!

The excitement for Christmas is building in St Patrick's. We were very lucky when Santa took time out of his busy preparations to pay the school a visit. He chatted to all the children and even got to see some classes practicing for their show. Thank-you for coming to visit us Santa.



Christmas Village

The children from 2nd class in Ms O'Donnell's class have been very busy creating a 'Santa's Village'. It is very festive, plays music and has wonderful Christmas lights.

Christmas Prayer Service

The entire school assembled yesterday for our Christmas Prayer Service. We were very lucky that the parent's choir came to join us. We prayed and sang together and recalled the special meaning of Christmas. We learnt a special prayer for Christmas. It would be nice to say it at home too.

Thank-you God for Jesus,
Is the prayer we say.
Thank-you God for Jesus,
Born on Christmas Day.

Thank-you to Mrs Kane for organising the prayer service.
