CASTLEDOCKRELL NS
Last week we have been celebrating Seachtain na Gaeilge in school with a table quiz, céilí, traditional Irish music session and a ‘La Glas’ when we all came to school dressed in green. It was a great week and great to hear all of the children using their Irish language in school.
Well done to the children in second class who made their First Confession on March 12 in preparation for their First Holy Communion on April 29.
We are now taking enrolments for September, 2018. For further information and enrolment forms please contact the school at 053 9388892 or visit our website: Castledockrell.weebly.com.
