We had a great first month back in Corpus Christi National school with all of our pupils settling in well and doing some great work to have a 'Tús maith, leath na hoibre'!
Our annual Core Values Poster competition was a great success and the girls and boys learnt a lot about our 5 core values of Honesty, Kindness, Courtesy, Responsibility and Respect.
Our school football team is off to a flying start with some great matches under their belts. We also celebrated friendship week and had a mass to officially open the school year.
We held our Student Council elections for the pupils of 5th and 6th class on the 26th of September and look forward to promoting student leadership and voice throughout the year. They will be joined by nominees from other classes in the coming weeks.
A special mention to the boys and girls in Junior Infants, it has been great to welcome boys back to Corpus Christi. All of the Junior Infant boys and girls have done great work in their first month of school. They have settled in well and have even met their book buddies. We look forward to helping them grow and learn!
This month, we look forward to our sponsored walk, Maths Week and our infamous Halloween dress up. We are lucky to have a busy and vibrant school community.
Admission for Junior Infants 25-26 opens on the 30th of September, please follow this link to complete the online application form.
