Monday, 11th March 2013 Weekly Note
HALF-TIME EXHIBITION
Congratulations to Luke Northern and Ciaran McCrory who were selected to play in the half-time exhibition match at yesterday’s Tyrone vCorkmatch. Despite the cold weather both boys acquitted themselves well and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
WORLD BOOK DAY
Many thanks for the fantastic response to the ‘World Book Day’ fancy dress on Thursday last. There were some very novel ideas floating around and the sight of so many strange and colourful characters around only added to the other reading activities ongoing that day.
PARENTS’ ASSOCIATION QUIZ
Many thanks to those who supported Friday’s quiz in the Club (or sent in donations). As mentioned previously, the funds raised will be used to offset the costs of hiring the
Strule Arts Centre for our school production later in the year. Last years ‘Mama Mia’ production cost in the region of £2000 to put on so fundraising nights like this are a necessity.
ST. PATRICK’S DAY HOLIDAY
The school will be closed next Monday (18th March) for the St. Patrick’s Day holiday. School re-opens on Tuesday morning.
DRAMA CANCELLED TOMORROW
Please note that there will be no drama tomorrow.
GREENCASTLE CROSS-COUNTRY RACE
There was to have been a cross-country race in Greencastle tomorrow but owing to the inclement weather it has been cancelled until after the Easter break.
ST. PATRICK’S DAY CEILIDH
Pupils from P.4-P.7 will visit the Strule Arts Centre on Wednesday morning to participate in theOmaghDistrictCouncilsSchool’s Ceilidh. If last year’s experience is anything to go on, this should prove a very novel and enjoyable affair.
ULTIMATE CHALLENGE
Four pupils in P.6 will visitDrumraghCollege tomorrow to participate in their ‘Ultimate Challenge’ event. The four pupils selected are Odhrain Starrs, Sorcha Mullan, Corey Armstrong and Sophie-Leigh Armstrong. The day involves a number of problem solving and team challenge situations and should prove an enjoyable day for the 4 pupils involved.
FIRST CONFESSSION
This week is a big week in the sacramental lives of our P.4 pupils as they make their First Confession. Our pupils will join those from All Saints P.S. on Thursday night at 7.00pm in Drumragh Chapel. All pupils have been preparing diligently for this and we trust that Thursday evening will prove a pleasant experience for all.
