5th and 6th class had a great day visiting Collins Barracks in the morning and the a trip to Microsoft 's Dreamspace. Here we got an opportunity to code and Create animations. We also learnt about technology of the future. We got a tour of their offices...we were very impressed with their yoga room, gym, salon and seven restaurants on site! What a great way to start the week...with a visit to Togher Woods for National Tree Day..the staff from Coillte met us a gave us a tour and informative talk about trees and the work that Coillte do. Everybody had a great time visiting this local wood and amenity. Thank you to Ger Buckley, Richard Jack, Sean Quealy and finally Sharon Fitzpatrick for organising the walk for our school.
Well Done to pupils past and present who took part in the Streets of Portlaoise Race today. Great to see our school so well represented.
