6th class Art

Today 6th class was busy doing art. We were doing German pop art.

First we printed our portraits and then we had to trace over them.

We used the windows to help us trace.

We are then going to make dots with markers to make them look like pop art.

Check our website later to see the finished product!

6th Class trip to Glasnevin Cemetery

6th Class had a fantastic morning in Glasnevin Cemetery today. Pat was our tour guide and he told us all about Micheal Collins and how he helped make the Catholic Emancipation. He also showed us the graves of Eamon De Valera and Countess Markievicz.

Today we celebrated all of the amazing artists in Rutland NS.

Our annual art exhibition took place in the hall.  Parents, staff and members of the local community were commenting on the fantastic artwork on display.

A huge thanks to Sean and the Parents Group for helping display the art and preparing the hall for the exhibition.

What a talented group of students we have!

Katriona O’Sullivan

Katriona O’Sullivan came to Rutland NS last week to share her experiences with the staff.  We were joined by staff from other local schools for a wonderful afternoon listening to Katriona share her story and remind us all of the impact education can have on children.  Thanks for sharing your story with us Katriona!IMG_8455

Christmas Wish

We had a very special evening on Thursday when we held our first ever night time Christmas performance!

The church was filled with family and friends to support our amazing pupils.

They put on some amazing performances to fill our hearts with Christmas cheer.

The evening raised over €4,000 for the school.

A huge thank you to everyone who came to support. It was a very special evening in the history of Rutland National School.
