Masks

Here are some masks that we made from papier mache.

Market Day in Miss McGowan's


Miss McGowan's class were having a Market Day for their mini-economy and we were invited to come in and do some shopping.
Because our two classes have different "currencies", we had to devise an exchange rate that was fair to both sides. So two of our "Killys" was worth one of theirs. Everyone was happy with the exchange.

New Student Blog!

Check out the new student-managed blog killygarryindependent. It's listed with our class blogs . Every student will get a chance to post something of interest to him or her. We'd love some comments from parents and friends there too please!

Arts and Crafts

For the next 3 or 4 weeks we are  knitting in our class. Most are knitting teddies and some are knitting scarves.





Killygarry Mural




We're very lucky in Killygarry NS to have been chosen to participate in the painting of a mural. The mural was designed by the pupils and Heather Brett, the resident artist in Cavan County Council. Heather and the children have been working on it for weeks and now it's almost finished. It'll be displayed for all to see soon, we hope.

Confirmation meetings

Reminder that there is a Confirmation meeting this evening  and for the next four Wednesdays in the Pastoral Centre at St Pat's from 7-8pm.
