Tom Cuffe, a member of Bird Watch Ireland, recently visited the school for over a week taking each class for a very enjoyable lesson on bird watching. He taught the children all about the different types of birds in Ireland as well as showing some origami of birds. Here is a sample of pictures from 1st class.

Cake Sale 2012
On the 16th of March, 2012, our school had a charity cake sale in aid of Tuam Cancer Care and Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Crumlin.
The cakes sold were; plain cupcakes, chocolate chip cupcakes, lemon cupcakes, strawberry cupcakes, raisin cupcakes, chocolate cupcakes, scones, raisin scones, plain muffins, blueberry muffins, lemon muffins, chocolate muffins, vanilla muffins, chocolate brownies, double chocolate brownies, mini brownies, rocky road, sponge cake, lemon cake, cheesecake, berry cake, chocolate cake, carrot cake, biscuit cake, gingerbread men, cookies, chocolate chip cookies, raisin cookies, Rice Krispie buns, chocolate Rice Krispie buns, etc. etc.!!!!
Obviously, the art of baking is alive and well in Tuam!
In addition to the cake sale, we also had a coffee morning for parents, grandparents, relatives and friends. We also had a raffle, with numerous prizes, including many yummy Easter Eggs.
Every single cake and bun was sold (only crumbs remained). Hundreds of raffle tickets were bought and many cups of tea were drunk. A grand total of €1, 278 was raised for the two charities.
We here at sixth class had a great time selling the cakes, and we hope all the children, from Junior Infants up had fun at the cake sale too.
We would like to thank all students, parents, relatives and friends for supporting our cake sale and coffee morning.

Fourth class projects.
Our first projects were on “Animals” and we enjoyed doing these projects and learning about the different animals very much.
Our second projects are based on countries that we find very interesting. We enjoyed learning about the people, weather, capital cities, food , past-times and many more interesting facts and customs of these countries . We all enjoyed reporting to our class on our hard work.
Here are pictures of the girls with their wonderful projects, well done!

On the 12th of March, our school football team went to Belclare football pitch and took part in a blitz called mini 7s because there was seven aside. 14 people were chosen to come to the blitz. Some parents also came to support.
There were six teams including us, Cummer, Lavally and Brownsgrove, Belclare, Sáilín, and Cahergal. We lost against Cummer, we won against Sáilín and drew Cahergal. Cummer and Belclare made it to the final and Cummer won by 3 points.
After the blitz we went back to the park in Belclare and ate our lunch. While we were eating our lunch, we played in the park there.We had a great day and the weather was really good. We are going on another blitz on the 10th of May and we can’t wait

Thank you so much to all the children, parents and staff who contributed to the ’1 Book 4 Africa’ campaign. We collected almost 400 books. These books will be distributed to schools in Uganda which have little or no reading material. Soon thousands of children will be enjoying books donated by their friends in Tuam. Thank you again for your generosity.
