Murhur NS

Well done to our 6th Class who competed in the Cumann na mBunscol competition on Monday 14th March in Ballylongford. Best of luck to Fenit NS in the next round!

Juniors, Seniors and 1st trying out our new ipads. The middle room pupils did some research on Ukraine while 5th and 6th put them to good use working on Report Writing!

Delighted that Cumann na mBunscol is back again! Practice got off to a flying start recently 2022!

A feast of pancakes at school!

Children in the Junior room were very busy last week creating some masterpieces to celebrate the Chinese New Year and St. Valentine’s Day!

French lessons began in the Senior and Middle rooms recently as part of the Primary Languages Sampler Module! Children enjoyed the experience of learning a different language!

Children celebrated St. Brigid throughout the school by making St. Brigid’s crosses and weaving St. Brigid’s cloaks.

The Junior Room made some beautiful bookmarks as a treat for some of the most important people in their lives, their Grandparents! They remembered the Grandparents that are near, living far away and those who have gone to Heaven.

Well done to our two 6th class girls who represented the school on Radio Kerry in the next episode of ‘EU and Me’.  They posed questions to guest speakers MEP Seán Kelly, Tim Hayes – Head of Communications, European Commission representative in Ireland and Ciarán O’Driscoll – Policy and Research Officer, European Movement Ireland.  These guests explained to children how EU institutions work for them, their families and communities and how all the EU bodies work and interact together.

The Planning stage of our school’s ‘Ireland’s Future is Mine’ project using Minecraft Education Edition #sustainability!

4th Class starting a new year by getting to grips with 3D Shapes!

We are all very excited about Christmas this year! The Junior room put on a Christmas performance in their room with poor Rudolph catching a cold and reindeer Ralph saving the day!  2nd, 3rd and 4th created some beautiful festive snow globes using chalk pastels.  5th and 6th told the story of Christmas through song as Gaeilge and in English – An Chéad Nollaig and Mary’s Boy Child.  They also did a Christmas Sketch – The Bethlehemian Rhapsody!!  There were Christmas gingerbread men treats and Santa stopped by for a quick visit also!

5th and 6th class took part in a Geodesign Workshop, through zoom, in association with the Moyvane Development Association Community Planning Project.  The children found it very interesting and actively engaged with planning for the Moyvane area into the future.  It was a fantastic way to allow the children to take part and voice their opinions and ideas.

We are so pleased to announce that the children in Murhur N.S. donated €334 to Radio Kerry Christmas Jumper Day in support of SVP. Well done to all!

Children created beautiful Christmas tree ornaments  weaving willow and bull rushes as part of the Heritage in Schools Scheme.

In preparation for the Late Late Toy Show the Junior Room designed a  Christmas Jumper for Ryan Tubridy. He looked so well!  They made delicious fairy cakes and hot chocolate with a little help from teacher.  Happy faces all around.

Congratulations to our 2nd class who had their First Holy Communion Enrolment Ceremony recently.

Children enjoyed exploring our local Woodland area with Geoff the Heritage Specialist. They learned all about our native trees and leaves!
