Oíche Shamhna!

Bhí páistí an Naíonra ag obair go crua ar maisiúcáin don seomra, le haghaidh feile oíche shamhna. Seo samplaí don obair a bhí á dheanamh acu.  Le na páistí go leir gléasta suas, chuamar amach ar siúilóid timpeall na háite agus bhí am iontach againn, a siúil is a cannadh amhrán 'Oiche Shamhna'. Chonaic muintir na háite muid is bhí siad ag gáire linn!!!

The children were working, making decorations in the Naíonra for Halloween . Here are samples of the work they were doing! With the children dressed in Halloween costumes, we went out for a walk in the surrounding area of the Naíonra and we sang songs ( Oiche Shamhna) as we walked. The people in the locality saw us and enjoyed the spectical, (teachers were also dressed up)!!!!

Tascanna Grúpa

Seo cuid do sna tascanna a rinne na páistí mar grúpa is iad a foghlaim faoi na séisiúir ( an crann), an aimsir (an grian) agus peil gaelach- go háirithe buaiteoirí na bliana seo.......'Baile Atha Cliath'! Fáilte abaile curann 'Sam Maguire'!

"I mBaile Athá Cliath,
Ní fhaca mé riamh,
Aon chailín níos áille ná Moll Ní Mhaoileoin,
Ag stiúradh a bara,
Trí lánaí na cathrach,
Le "ruacain is sliogáin,
"Is iad go leir beo".
"Is iad go leir beo, Is iad go leir beo",
Le "ruacain is sliogáin, is iad go leir beo".

Here are group projects the children have been doing in the Naíonra, learning about the seasons (the tree), the weather ( the sun), and Irish football especially this year's winners.......Dublin! Welcome home to the 'Sam Maguire Cup'! Up the Dubs! ( The song above is sung to the air of Molly Malone)!

Slán le Brenda! Stiúiritheoir sa Naíonra

Is ábhar bróin dúinn slán a fhágail le duine dár bhfoireann a bhí an-tábhacht dúinn go léir, is í sin Brenda.

Bhí Brenda ag obair linn sa naíonra anseo le dhá bhliain déag anuas, agus is mór an cailliúint dúinn í. Tá súil againn go mbeidh sí an-sásta leis an jab nua atá faighte aici agus go mbainfidh sí leas agus sásamh mór as. Coinneoimidne anseo sa naíonra caoin chuimhne uirthi agus tá súil againn go dtiocfaidh sí ar ais ar cuairt chugainn am eigin anach anseo. Go raibh míle maith agat a Bhrenda, agus go n-éirí an saol nua leat i gcónaí!

We are sorry to say goodbye to a much loved member of our team here in the Naíonra. Brenda has been working here with us for the past twelve years and she will be sorely missed. We pray that she  enjoys many good times in her new job and that she will be much blessed by the new friends that she will make. We will always remember her and invite her to come visit us as often as she can ( and not forgeting our team's christmas meal!) Thank you Brenda always and may all your days be good ones and may your future be bright!
