We wish three of our staff members farewell and good luck.

Bríd Butler has been an SNA in the school for the past five years and she has been a very important and valued staff member. Bríd is currently studying to become a science teacher at secondary level. We sincerely wish her the very best of luck in the rest of her studies and future teaching career. We will miss you Bríd. We also wish Louise O'Regan the very best of luck. Louise has been an important part of our staff for many years as an SNA. Louise was also responsible for many of the beautiful costumes you might have seen in the school musicals. She is also a brilliant artist and shared her talents with the pupils. Best wishes for the future Louise.

Ashleigh O'Sullivan has taught with us for the past year covering a job share. She was a wonderful, dedicated teacher and a great addition to our staff and we wish her the best of luck in the future.

Racing Pigeon Found in our Sensory Garden

Monday proved to be a very exciting day for the students in Lios Cúram when they found a racing pigeon in the Sensory Garden.

With the help of Eamon, Fintan and Shane were able to find the pigeon’s ring number, which was attached to the pigeon’s ankle.

We then contacted the ‘Royal Pigeon Racing Association’ who gave us the contact details of the pigeon’s owner.

The pigeon had come all the way from Newry, Co. Down! The owner told us the pigeon was in a race on Saturday and must have strayed off course.

The students in the Elderberry room fed the pigeon and gave him plenty of water. He was collected that evening from the school.

Well done to everyone in Lios Cúram who showed great kindness to the pigeon

Local History - 6th Class Trip to Liscarroll Castle

posted 1 Jun 2021, 13:16 by Margaret Mullane

Local historian Pat O'Brien spoke to us about the history of Liscarroll castle. Pat brought the pupils from 6th class inside the castle walls and imparted all the knowledge he had on the castle.

Pat has a wealth of knowledge on the subject as the castle is situated on his land. The children loved this trip and were busy filling out worksheets and sketching the castle, as they listened to Pat.

We sincerely thank Pat for leading us through the magical journey from the building of the castle in the 13th century to the re-enactment of

The Battle of Liscarroll in 1996.

We had great fun last Friday at our Amber Flag Day in school.

The theme of the day was 'Express Yourself'. Pupils dressed in outfits that expressed themselves.

We had princesses, hurling & football stars, farmers, pussy cats, teddy bears, rock stars etc,

Belinda Murphy, past pupil and author of 'Bella the Butterfly' did a reading of her book for the younger classes. The children thoroughly enjoyed Belinda and her positive, enthusiastic personality. Thank you Belinda.

Shaun Hennessey did some well-being PE with the older classes in the local G.A.A. field. This was great fun and the children also loved the activities and space that the field offered. Thank you Shaun.

There was a danceathon on the front yard.

Each pupil completed an art piece and there were prize winners in each class.
