Our Peer Tutoring initiative in 5th/6th class is going well. The students are benefiting from the collaborative approach and peer assisted learning. They are enjoying the new selection of reading material. We were delighted to welcome visitors from "Vantage" (our Peer Tutoring sponsors) to visit and view one of the sessions.
The children in 4th class are receiving cycling lessons from Noel from Dublin County Council.. The children are learning to rise their bikes and all about road safety.
A "Careers in Construction" event was held for 5th and 6th classes during the month of June with SISK. During this time they listened to speakers talking about their career paths and explaining their roles. They heard from engineers, members of HR and management teams, 4d planners, a supply chain analyst, a sustainability manager, a site foreman, a business coach and from Sensori. This was a wonderful opportunity. The students asked some great questions and thoroughly enjoyed the event.
Third and fourth class students finished up their Time to Count programme with a site visit. The SISK team organised two buses to take the students to their plant site and a new construction site nearby. The children saw lots of construction activity and were treated to some machinery demonstrations. Later, back at school SISK organised an ice cream van for all staff and students. A wonderful day was had by all.
