Hi everyone! Welcome back to school! Follow our blog to see how we are working together for a sustainable future.
On Thursday 2nd of March everyone in Le Chéile celebrated the 20th anniversary of World Book Day. The children in Senior Infants were very excited to get involved in many events. Everyone brought in one of their favourite books from home. We used these for “Show and Tell” and then wrote a sentence about them. […]
We were prompted by RTE to get involved in the Operation Transformation 10@10 activity day. Everybody in the school took ten minutes out at 10 a.m. to do ten minutes exercise today, the 10th of February. This is commonly done by various teachers in the school in their own time but it was a first […]

We gratefully accepted and settled in to an afternoon of pure panto entertainment. The staff and children thoroughly enjoyed the show with many becoming […]
