The Champions Cup Visits Kildalkey

Kildalkey N.S. recently  a visitor to the school - the European Rugby Champions Cup!

On the back of Leinster's triumph last year whey won the Champions Cup and the Pro 14 Cup, both trophies were brought into the school, courtesy of Athboy rugby club.

All classes had photos taken with the cups, which Leinster hope to see back again in the coming year!

Many thanks to Shane for bringing the trophies in.

Mini Scientist Success

To get to an All Ireland final is superb. To get to two is simply outstanding. Yet that's what Anna, Ellen, Meadhbh and Shannon have done.

They qualified again for the All Ireland final to be held in January and February. Their project 'Does THE Spatter Matter?' was one of only 16 to make it through to the All Ireland. Considering there was nearly 100 on display, that is some achievement!

The girls now look forward to the All Ireland finals, where we are sure they will represent the school brilliantly - again!

Well done to their girls and their parents on seeing all their hard work pay off! Roll on the All Ireland!

Even Bishop Smith was impressed to hear about their exploits!

Selection Box Winner!

Well done to Abbie who won the Parents' Association raffle on the day of the Cake Sale!

The Parents' Association generously gave a gorgeous selection box to all classes to raffle off.

Abbie's number was the first one out - congratulations!

Not to be opened until Christmas now......

Mini Scientist Fair 2018

Well done to all who took part in the Mini Scientist competition this year.

The standard was simply extraordinary, with some outstanding projects on display.

When it all boiled down to it, there were three runners up with Blessing, Ava and Amy, and Lucy and Ava-Marie all being rewarded for their supreme efforts with runners up prizes.

Overall the top spot went to Shannon, Anna, Meadhbh and Ellen for their work on blood spatter - Does Spatter Matter? This in itself is a phenomenal achievement for this is the second year in a row for these girls to win it and the third for Ellen and Shannon.

Well done to all who participated and thanks to all those who came along.

Here is a video of Ava and Amy's tornado!
