Art Exhibition - Feb 20th 2023
Thanks to everyone for showing up to our Art Exhibition in the Halla. We’re sure you'll agree it was a lovely social event for the school community to get together and meet pupils, families and staff. All the art pieces were truly fabulous and the frames showed them in their best light. We’re sure they will be pieces which you will treasure for the future. Most of all the exhibition will boost the children’s self-esteem by displaying their pieces in a real art exhibition. The money made will be used to fund bus trips for the children. Very much appreciated! Finally, a big thanks to everyone who donated cakes, buns and biscuits. Check out lots of photos from the night here. |

15 November 2022 - ART WIN
Saluting James age 10 (4th Class) who came first with his art entry in the Credit Union Art Competition covering Croom, Rathkeale and Adare districts! We’re so proud. A bright, detailed picture that has a lot of graphic style and, of course, pucks of imagination - the way he has visually linked up related concepts. We wish him the best of luck as he goes on to the Regional heats. Pictured above is the winning work.
