Recent News at Clara N.S...


​BIG NEWS!!!! 

We were delighted to see our new polytunnel being constructed this week! We are looking forward to using it in the new school year & putting our 'green fingers' to good use! Many thanks to the hands who built it for us! 

The Graduating Class of 2025 received their hoodies. They designed these themselves and did a great job. Hope you enjoy them girls. 

A Visit to D.C.U. 
D.C.U. = Dublin City University 
Caolan qualified for an Assessment from the Centre of Talented Youth Ireland as a result of achieving some really high scores in recent tests. This was a great opportunity for him. He went up on Saturday 11th January and discovered just how big DCU is.!! I wonder will any more of our pupils end up at DCU in the future!!?Sometimes we must leave our comfort zone to discover more!

A Cold Spell
When we returned to school on January 6th 2025, temperatures were very low. For the first week, the temperature barely went above zero degrees. This is, of course, freezing point. The result of this, along with some snow showers, was that our entire environment was covered in white. We left some food out for the little birds and gritted a path into the school. All in all, it was a good week. Even though we weren't allowed to run at break times (imagine children being told not to run!!) we did have some great fun in the snow. Check out our video below. 

Wellbeing in Clara N.S.

In our school we value the importance of looking after our own wellbeing. We take part in wellbeing lessons every week& we enjoy them so much! Check out some of the latest activities below!!

St Brigid's Day Celebrations

Our pupils were very busy making St Brigid's crosses in memory of St Brigid. A big word of thanks to our brilliant senior room pupils who helped to make crosses for our Junior room! It was a lovely act of kindness. We marked St. Brigid's day in a special way by holding a beautiful prayer assembly with the help of Fr. Flanagan. Well done to all our pupils who prepared the service and brought so much to it with their thoughtful prayers.
