Hedgehog Art
We have been busy learning about Autumn in our classroom. Autumn is a time when the leaves are tumbling and swirling down from the trees! We painted some leaves in autumn colours, take a look below! Autumn is also a time when animals are getting ready for winter, our hedgehogs are very happy in their nests of leaves!

6th Class Graduation
Congratulations to all 14 pupils in 6th class who celebrated their graduation ceremony today with their schoolmates, teachers and family. The ceremony took place in the school hall, which was beautifully decorated by the 6th class. Here, with their friends and family present, the children spoke of their time in St. Brigid's National School. Each pupil was presented with their certificate and a St. Brigid's cross by principal Ms. Duffy, marking their achievement of completing their primary education. A poem 'Graduation Day' was read out by Ushna, and Victoria marked the end of the ceremony by playing 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow'. Well done girls!
Each pupil wrote a message and attached it to a balloon, which were released on the steps of the school - where their journey began 8 years previously.
Then, it was time for their party, V.I.P's only - 6th class!
Thank you to all who helped organise the ceremony, and to Ms. Duffy and all the teachers for working so hard over the past 8 years!
Best of luck to Adam, Victoria, Matthew, Ellen, Daragh, Mark, Niamh, Lilian, Kelan, Ushna, Eddie, Caoimhe, Grace and Daniel!
