"Well done to all in Scoil Bhríde, Rathcormac for submitting great STEM work. It is clear to see that everyone participated in a range of imaginative activities producing amazing work. How wonderful to use a playground to learn about energy and forces. The outfits made by investigating the properties of materials were fantastic and the engineered inventions presented during the schools ‘Dragon’s Den’ amazing. Keep up all the amazing work and congratulations on a well-deserved Research Ireland Curious Minds Gold Award."

sciath na scol finals
Well done to both of our amazing Sciath na Scol teams who competed in the 2025 DC3 and DH3 finals in Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Wednesday 28th May.
Congratulations to our girls who battled hard and came out on the right side with a stunning victory against Gaelscoil Mhichíl Uí Choileáin on a score line of 5-05 to 1-04.
Commiserations to our boys who were defeated after a titanic battle by Ballinspittle NS on a scoreline of 1-14 to 2-07. We played exceptionally well but the rub of the green didn't go our way. The boys can be exceptionally proud of what they have achieved.
Check out the photos, match reports and match videos below.

A visit to the Men's Shed GARDEN...
Thanks so much to Colin for inviting the 1st and 6th classes to the Men's Shed Garden recently. We got to see all the different vegetables and flowers growing there and experienced to searing heat in the poly tunnel! Colin shared his knowledge with us about growing plants from seeds and transplanting them in our school garden which we did with Colin recently. The peas were not happy to be moved but it was a fascinating experiment! Colin very kindly provided us with some plants to take home and in return he gained a few new members for the Men's Shed!!!
