Over the past 6 weeks almost 40 boys and girls have been participating in Peil 4 All every Thursday morning from 8:00 – 9:00am. This is a fantastic initiative to get children moving and motivated. Thank you to the volunteers from Duffry Rovers GAA club for organising it.

Congratulations to the twelve boys and girls who received the sacrament of First Holy Communion on Saturday, May 6th in Caim church. We were delighted to have Fr Fegan back to officiate the ceremony. Thanks to Mr Fitzpatrick for preparing the children for the sacrament and thank you to Ms Murphy and the pupils from our senior classes who provided the beautiful singing and music.

Well done and a big thank you to all the children of Caim NS who took to the roads and grounds surrounding the school last Tuesday to complete a big “Spring Clean.” It was so disappointing to see the amount of rubbish that had been thrown on the side of the road however the children did Trojan work to pick up all the litter, which was collected by Wexford County Council later in the week. Well done especially to the children who took it upon themselves to collect around their own homes later that evening and collected another 16 bags of rubbish! Well done everyone!

Nicole, one of our 6th class pupils took part in the Eason Spelling Bee in Wexford on Wednesday 19th April. She reached the third round of the final. Well done Nicole! Thanks to Robbie and Conor for going along to support her.

Congratulations to 5th Class who recently completed the Junior Achievement Programme. Over a series of 5 weeks the children learned about the Circular Economy, created a plan to design a mobile app, used mathematical skills to survive a “crash landing”, used their engineering skills to design and create bridges and created an advertisement campaign. Well done everyone and a big thank you to Alan Buckley, a former past pupil, from Waters Technology Wexford, who led the programme with the children.

A big “Thank You” to Garda Madeline and Garda Aine who visited the senior rooms today to speak to us about Cyber Bullying. 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Class all benefited greatly from a revision of the rules and guidance on how to stay safe online and how to prevent and help stop bullying on social media and gaming platforms. Pictured below are the children of 5th and 6th Class with our visitors.

The boys and girls of 2nd class will receive the sacrament of reconciliation on Wednesday night, 29th March at 7pm in Caim church. They have been working hard and preparing well for this special occasion. We wish them all the best.

Thursday 16th March saw a sea of green in our school. We celebrated the end of Seachtain na Gaeilge and our patron saint, Saint Patrick. We held an assembly in the hall where each class had prepared a song, dance or poem ‘as Gaeilge’ and we had our ‘Seo Faisean’ Check out some of the pictures from our assembly.

Míle Buíochas to Ms Brady and 6th class who organised it all.
