Well done to our girls and boys Mini 7s Teams who competed recently in Gaelic Football. The girls unfortunately lost to Courtnacuddy but were successful in their game against Donard. The boys team also won and lost one of their group games but progressed to the next round on points difference. Well done boys and girls and best of luck to the boys in the next round!


6th Class had a busy month this September. They are settled into the routine of the extra jobs and responsibilities of the most senior class! Bhí siad ag déanamh Mé Féin as Gaeilge. In their maths work they have looked at time and place value. They are studying the novel “Holes” in their English while enjoying Games such as football and rounders as part of their PE. In geography they looked at the counties and rivers while also participating with Dabbledoo in their music and drama. They have also started the Stay Safe programme while many of the boys and girls have been representing the school in Rackard League and Mini 7s! Maith sibh Rang a Sé!

This year in Room 2 we have 1st and 2nd Class.
We had a very busy month in September. Our theme was Myself and My Family.
In Aistear we made rice krispie buns, played role play at the Birthday Party, participated in party games, made party hats and created birthday cakes. We used our Blue Bots also! We made birthday creations using our Lego and played in the sandpit too.
In PE we played basketball – learning the chest pass, bounce pass and rainbow shoot! In music we worked on making sounds and listened to the music of Stevie Wonder. We started our Stay Safe Programme and second class worked hard on learning their emergency contact number.
In Art we drew self portraits, worked on drawing facial features with Mr Potato Head, used 1/2 our faces to finish the picture and made crazy hair day posters.
As Gaeilge bhíomar ag déanamh “Mé Féin agus Mo Chlann.”
We have also started our readers and our joined writing! Well done 1st and 2nd Class!

Well done to all the boys and girls of Caim NS who took part in National Fitness Day 2024 at the end of September. We started our day with some circuits at 10@10 followed by some dance moves after break. The day continued with Walk a Mile with a Smile before Mr Kavanagh’s class treated us to some outdoor games. Well done everyone!



First and Second Class have been loving playing with lego on any of our wet breaks and also in Aistear where they made Birthday Party Creations! Check out some more of our fabulous Lego masterpieces on our class page here!

We have learned lots about Autumn over the last week. Looking forward to our “Autumn Trail”, Sand Station and “fork” painting this week!


The infants saved their cartaí glasa and put them in the Pota Ranga so they bought a Pas Súgradh and went to the playground on Friday! We had a lovely day Friday for World Fitness Day. The infants won best class for their exercises! Thanks to Ms. Murphy, Mr. Kavanagh and his class for organising the activities/stations.


Learning through play is always fun! We learned about playdough this week, made a mess making our own playdough and we made some funny minions!
We played with the blue bots and made fabulous birthday cakes!

We made the most of the last of the sun. Picnic outside and we might have visited the playground a couple of times too😃
