Credit Union Quiz

Success for Herbertstown NS at the Credit Union Quiz.

Herbertstown NS entered 4 teams in the Credit Union Quiz last night, two in the U13 category and two in the U11 category.

Each performed very well with our U13 teams placing second and sixth. Our U11 teams occupied the first and third positions at the end of the evening so the winning U11 team now go forward to the next stage which takes place later this month.

Congratulations to all our boys and girls on their great performances.

Star Awards – November 2019

Congratulations to our Star Award winners for November! One pupil from each classroom was selected by their class teacher and the award winners were presented with certificates at today’s assembly. They were also given a night off homework for their efforts!

An extra award, decided on by Ms O’Dwyer and Mrs. Brosnan, is presented to pupils for a particular act of kindness or to pupils who have completed an exemplary piece of work in school. Well done to the latest recipient of this award.

Cribs

Mrs Heelan’s 5th & 6th class create fantastic cribs in time for Christmas.

The pupils in Mrs Heelan’s classroom have created some excellent cribs at home and this week the other pupils in the school got an opportunity to have a look at them. It was clear that a huge effort went into each crib at home!

The members of local Men’s Shed also called in to view the work.
