Dear parents of 6th class 2021,
it is a sad and happy day for us here in UGNS today. We are sad to say goodbye to this wonderful group of children but happy for them to be moving onto the next stage of their lives. They will be sadly missed here in UGNS.
All the best for the future,
6th class teachers.
It has been a different school year for all in Scoil Naomh Micheál. As you’ve not been able to come in and join us, we have shared just a snapshot of what our school term has been like. We hope you enjoy!
On Tuesday we welcomed Brian and Angela from Glanmire Foróige to the school for their mental health workshop with our 6th class students.
As an added bonus, Brian and Angela had arranged for Kinsale OEC to bring their climbing wall, giving our 6th class a view of the locality that they had never experienced before!
A big thank you to Brian and Angela for their continued work with our school and the young people in our locality.
This week was National Biodiversity Week. As we are working on the Biodiversity theme in the Green-Schools Programme, we decided to get involved. Classes took part in Zooms on topics such as Birds, Insects and Biodiversity. The weather interfered with our plans to get out and about but we have started our Biodiversity patch. We hope to encourage a wide variety of creatures to this space by planting insect friendly shrubs and creating a ‘bug hotel’. We will be choosing a name for our patch before the end of May. Make sure to let your teacher know what your suggestions is before then. We will keep you posted in the coming weeks and share pictures of our progress. Below are some before pictures.

Last week our school took part in Active Schools Week, with our children being active every day in the yard and Community Field. The video below is just a snapshot of the activities that took place on Friday. Enjoy!
Our children in Ms. McDonald’s class returned to a nice surprise after Easter following the installation of our new sensory room.
When Covid restrictions are no longer with us, the room will be available to all children in the school, with the equipment to be moved to a purpose built room in our planned extension.
We are extremely grateful to the Parents Association for their fundraising which has covered the cost of this wonderful addition to our school. Thank you to all parents for their support of initiatives over the past few years!
