Music Generation were filming in our school on Thursday the 31st of January for their website. They observed violin and orchestra practices and interviewed staff and students about their experience with music.

The children in Room 15 have been learning about weather and climate. They are currently constructing cumulus clouds using papier mache.

St. Ronan's school orchestra performed a medley of Christmas tunes as well as some pieces they have been working on.

Children from sixth class wrote and produced their own Christmas play. There were many interesting celebrity characters, great sound effects and fantastic set design. Children from other classes attended performances of this very successful production.

Staff at Xilinx in Citywest were treated to a carol service from members of the school choir.

From Star Readers to Star Writers
 
The sixth class students had a very busy term working on a short story to publish into a book. Kathryn Crowley from Emu courses online came in and told us about our journey towards writing a book. We first planned what we were going to write about in our copies, then we showed our teachers. The teachers played a big part in this, helping us edit and make sure our ideas flowed together. They also gave us good ideas if we were unable to think of something. We were all able to work at home as well as at school with google classroom, which was great. It took us four weeks from writing to editing to the final story. In the end it was an amazing experience, being able to write a book with all my friends in Sixth Class has made this something I will treasure forever.

Third Class will be performing their Christmas Play “The Nativity” on Tuesday the 18th of December in the church at 11:00 a.m. Ms Collins’ and Mr O’Reilly’s classes have been practising hard the last number of weeks to get their show ready. The classes have been learning their lines, singing the songs and rehearsing for the play. The play will tell the story of Christmas as Mary and Joseph travel to Nazareth where Jesus was born. Parents and family are invited to come along to see our show.
