The pupils in 5th Class were treated to an Up-Close Dance Invasion on Tuesday, 15th of November.
Up-Close by Monica Muñoz was a dance performance, discussion, and workshop all in one. It was specially developed to bring dance to schools in an accessible way and to stimulate an appetite for dance too. The pupils really enjoyed the solo dance performance by Cris in particular! Thank you to Ms Diffley for organising the workshop for the pupils.
We hope everyone had a fun-filled Halloween and a relaxing midterm break!
Scoil Thomáis re-opened at 9am on Monday 7th of November and we look forward to a busy term ahead!
Thank you SO much to absolutely everyone who baked, brought and bought at our fundraising Bake Sale today, Friday 28th of October!
A very special thank you to Scoil Thomáis Parents Association and their volunteers for all of their help with organising and running the Bake Sale.
Mr.O'Doherty's Senior Infants thoroughly enjoyed dressing up for Halloween! Look at their wonderful costumes in the video below!
Well done to all of our Maths Week winners pictured in the video below receiving their prizes from Ms.Diffley! The standard of entries were fantastic - well done, everyone! Many thanks to Ms.Travers for all of her work in organising Maths Week 2022!
The school hall was abuzz with excitement on Wednesday the 26th of October as the pupils of 5th Class set up their Mini Scientist exhibition in anticipation of the judges visit to the school on Thursday the 27th of October. The children have been working on their Intel Mini Scientist Project entries for the last few weeks both at home and in school and it was special for the pupils to be able to show off their hard work to the pupils of 3rd, 4th and 6th Classes on Wednesday. You can see a photo of each pupil and their project in the slideshow above. Hopefully you can get a flavour of the hard work in the lead up to the project and some of the excitement in the hall from the video below.
The pupils really enjoyed showing off their projects to the judges when they visited! They took a long time to make their decision, speaking to each project group and asking lots of questions.
Ms Galligan, Ms Golden, Ms O'Keeffe and Ms O'Mahony are very proud of the hard work, time and effort that their pupils have put into their projects so even though Intel judges had to choose one winning project, all of the pupils are winners in their teachers' eyes! Maith sibhse a pháistí!
A special thank you to Ms Galligan for organising everything for the pupils in 5th Class!
Well done to the winning project group!
Ms.Boyce's Junior Infants had a fantastic time orienteering in the Halloween Courtyard - well done, everyone!
After a fun-filled Halloween treasure hunt in the Spooky Courtyard, the pupils in Ms.Lenihan's class enjoyed some delicious hot chocolate and biscuits!
Room 21 have been working on narrative writing through the composition of picture books which got a huge thumbs up from the Junior Infants from Room 5!
Senior Infants have really enjoyed their learning through playing and working at the Pizzeria through Aistear over the month of October. As one of their learning activities, they made pizza on Friday 21st of October! It was a lot of fun being chefs for the day - here are some lovely pictures of Room 3 making and enjoying their yummy pizzas!

The boys and girls in Ms O'Donnell's Junior Infants did a Maths Trail on Thursday 20th of October to celebrate Maths Week 2022. They had a little help from pupils in 5th Class. The smaller children learned all about shapes, colours and counting in their envrionment and the older pupils learned all about kindness and empathy!
