WELL DONE TO ALL

It was a happy Tuesday in Ballagh NS as everybody tucked into Crépes hand-decorated with delicious treats, by 5th and 6th class pupils.

The subjects of Science, Music and Art were all incorporated in a recent project undertaken by the pupils of Ballagh NS when they designed and made musical instruments using recycled materials. Some wonderful instruments were created as can be seen from the photos below. For more photos, go to Gallery.

Christmas came early to Ballagh NS. On the day of the holidays, Pupils all came to school dressed in their festive gear. The Parent’s Association held a Christmas Raffle and there were a huge selection of prizes to be won. There was also a sellers prize of a beautiful fun filled hamper. Many thanks to our Parent’s Association for organising this raffle, to all our pupils who worked so hard selling tickets and to everybody who supported it. Congratulations to all the prize winners.
