On Thursday 22nd February Scoil Niocláis received a visit from Deirdre Clune for the constituency of Ireland South. It was a lovely ceremony and a memorable day for the school!

Thank you to Ms.Downing our Green Schools Coordinator in Scoil Nioclais for all the work and preparation that went into the visit and to all staff members and pupils who were involved on the day.

Junior & Senior Infants did a terrific job in forming a guard of honour with flags.

Well done also to Ms. Beechinor and Ms. Kelliher & Ms. Hennessy's class who performed 'The Ode To Joy', the European anthem.

Ms. O' Brien/Mr Foley's class and Ms. Downing's Senior Infants class said hello in the 28 languages of the member states!

5th & 6th class greeted her in the halla where children from 5th class interviewed Deirdre Clune about her role and why we should stay in Europe.

Well done also to all classes that displayed artwork and projects in the halla.
