S.T.E.M. Award for 5th & 6th classes

posted 7 Dec 2020, 03:36 by Margaret Mullane

A huge congratulations to 5th & 6th class and to their teachers Mrs Walsh & Mrs Mullane on receiving a Discovery Primary Science & Maths Award for their work in S.T.E.M over the past year.

There were many science experiments, maths trails & activities, engineering projects and much use of technology to compliment these activities. The pupils worked in groups of four and rotated to a different station each week so that over the course of the month, they experienced all aspects of STEM on a given theme. The pupils looked forward to Friday mornings when they could engage in these hands-on activities. The pupils were actively learning throughout these lessons.

While there was often much noise, there was also much investigating, predicting, observing, creativity, problem solving, discussion and team work on display. These lessons were a bit hit with both pupils and staff.

The school has received an European Citizenship award for their participation in this project. Well done to all involved.

We raised our 1st Amber Flag

posted 7 Dec 2020, 03:02 by Margaret Mullane

We are very excited to announce here in Liscarroll N.S. that we have been awarded our first Amber Flag. This aims at promoting positive mental health and well-being in the school for staff and pupils alike.

We were honoured to have local Commnuity Nurse and great friend to the school, Pat O’Brien present to raise our Amber flag. Pat was a member of the Board of Management of the school for over 20 years. We also were delighted to have Pat’s nephew, past pupil and Cork hurler Colin O’ Brien back to join us at these celebrations.

Matthew Crowley, 6th class pupil from the Student Council helped raise the Amber flag. Students wore amber coloured clothes to mark the occasion. There was a chocolate mindfulness session in each class which was most enjoyable. Pupils also engaged in mindful art activities.

Liscarroll NS Raises their 5th Green Flag

posted 13 Nov 2020, 12:47 by Margaret Mullane [ updated 14 Nov 2020, 08:14 ]

Liscarroll N.S. raised their 5th Green Flag today.

This flag was the biodiversity flag. This was a very interesting & child-friendly topic to study.

The committee created fun, hands- on projects for the classes such as making bird houses, setting up gardens, planting flowers and a wildflower patch, planting trees and vegetables gardens. We also got a bug hotel which allowed the children to investigate insects. The committee also invited guest speakers to school and we were lucky enough to host a beekeeper in our school and learn about the importance of bees and how they impact our environment. We also learned the importance of pollination for our plants and animals.
