Centenary Fun Day

The whole school celebrated our Centenary year with a action packed fun day on the 21st of June. Bouncy castles, a magician, old time sports, face painting and even an ice cream van were all present to make it a very special day for the children. Even the good weather turned up!

Eco Council

 

Our Eco Council's campaign to promote Healthy Eating has gotten off to a great start with our fruit and vegetable tasting sessions. The children tasted a wide variety of fruit and vegetables and hopefully this has raised awareness of the need to develop healthy habits. 

Children are also encouraged to drink more water during the school day and we would remind parents that children should only bring water or milk to school.

Centenary Quilt

Teresa Muldoon presented the Centenary Quilt to the children recently. In her own calm and wise way, she advised and guided the teachers at every stage of planning and developing the quilt. She painstakingly arranged and stitched the squares together, transforming it from individual pieces to the complete quilt which we now have. From the bottom of our hearts we thank Teresa for her knowledge and labour which has enabled us to capture Roan so perfectly. When we first discussed the concept of a quilt in September, we did not envisage anything to the scale and quality of what we now have. We are truly grateful to everyone who has helped in any way in assisting with our project and be assured that this quilt will hang in pride of place in Roan for many    future generations to enjoy.
