Fáilte go rang a cúig!
a very busy start to 5th class!
We are enjoying our gymnastic lessons and getting outdoors for the last of the summer sunshine.
globe air quality campaign 2023
In October of last year, we completed the GLOBE Clean Air Survey at our school. The experiment measured Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) levels at three different locations (Sheltered, Car Park and Near Main Road) on our school grounds. Nitrogen Dioxide is an air pollutant mainly associated with traffic.
This year we are again participating in the campaign to measure pollution levels in the air around our school. We had to place the test tubes in two different locations on our school grounds and provide samples for analysis. The tubes will be in place for four weeks and we will take them down on October 24th. We are looking forward to receiving feedback on our experiment and comparing the results to 2022 to see if the air quality is improving on our school grounds. 🤞 In addition this year, we are also required to conduct two traffic counts and weather observations each week! So if you see us out and about in the mornings with our clipboards, it is to collect data to help analyse and improve air quality at our school! 😁

school garden
We had a lot of work to do tending to the school garden after summer. We had to harvest carrots, purple corn, onions, herbs and even a few stray potatoes that escaped us in June. 😁 Our pumpkins are still doing great! We look forward to working on the garden in the year ahead!
