STEM Workshops in Action! 🤖🔧
Our STEM workshops this week were full of excitement, creativity, and hands-on learning! Pupils from Senior Infants to 3rd Class explored, experimented, and solved problems in a fun, interactive environment led by the Clever Cogs team. They had a fantastic time programming cars, building marble-powered machines, and exploring STEM toys, all while developing hands-on skills and verbal reasoning. It was an amazing engineering experience, and everyone had a blast discovering the world of robots, machines, and creative problem-solving!
A School Full of Stories 📚✨
From witches and wizards to superheroes, animals and beloved characters, today St. Patrick’s was bursting with imagination for World Book Day! Children across the school celebrated their love of reading through costumes, quizzes, buddy reading, art activities and sharing their favourite stories together. A wonderful reminder that books can take us anywhere!

Learning Through Art
‘Schools that integrate arts into their curriculum show improved student performance in maths, English, critical thinking and verbal skills’. Over the past fortnight, students have been displaying their learning through art, to visually communicate their understanding and depth of Key Learning Areas. Ivy class created an art display to show their understanding of how our we use our hands to help others. The circular movement around our hand shows how our kindness and generosity spreads wider and wider.
