Crumlin National School

On the 3rd March we celebrated World Book Day.  The children dressed as their favourite book characters and we held a fashion show to allow the children to exhibit their wonderful costumes.  Here are a few photos from the day.

Tuam Chamber have asked us to announce that Santa will be in town from 12 – 4.30 pm on 5 December at Cellar Lane, The Square, Tuam.

He’s looking forward to seeing everyone:-)!!!

Crumlin N.S. was a scary place the day before our Halloween break. All children arrived in brilliant costumes and we had brilliant fun all day playing traditional Halloween games. Take a look……:-).

Well done to all our students who came up with inventive and novel costumes for our Maths Week Fashion Show! The photos show the effort and time that went into the maths fancy dress!

Once again, the huge amount of talent in our school was on display during our very entertaining end of year show and play ‘The Jungle Book’. Thanks to Nikki our new addition who took over from Katharine Mannion for the beautiful music, to Susan Shaughnessy for the wonderful Irish dancing routine and finally to Sarah Griffin, our drama teacher, for all her hard work and excellent drama classes throughout the year. Well done to our all our students who were excellent on stage and did us all proud:-). Hope everyone enjoyed the show as much as we did!!      

Huge thanks to Ms. Murphy who organised for Mike Murray from Basketball Ireland to visit our school on Monday the 22nd. It was a superb day of skills, drills, tips and fun. The children from 3rd to 6th thoroughly enjoyed the day especially the intensely competitive games we played at the end:-).

A huge congratulations to our girls and boys’ football teams who along with children from Annaghill National School won the Patricia Kelly and Nicholson Cup. Their excellent skills and determination saw them through 3 tough finals and the wins were greatly deserved.

The winning of the Cups concludes a great sporting year for Crumlin N.S. with our girl’s camogie team and boy’s football team reaching the Cumann na mBunscol Finals. Congrats to all involved.

This year 3rd & 4th class went to Shannon- River Adventure Centre in Roosky, Roscommon on their school tour and had an absolutely thrilling time! The muddier they got the more fun they had! It was a great day for a great bunch :). The smiling photos tell the story…

Thanks to Jay Ryan, who visited our school last Tuesday, April 28th for a puppet making workshop. The children had great fun making their own puppets and were treated to a puppet show.

Today, some members of our Green-Schools Committee were invited to attend a Green-Schools Water Forum in the Galway Bay Hotel, Salthill organised by An Taisce. Children had the opportunity to showcase how their school has conserved water and shared ideas with other schools. Our Committee members got  to take part in various activities such as a treasure hunt, designing their perfect water school and presenting their own school’s action plan for achieving the Water Flag. The children thoroughly enjoyed the day, thanks to An Taisce.
