Rang a 6 paid a visit to Coláiste Bhríde for a taster day recently to give them an idea of what awaits them in secondary school next September.
Rang a 6 Visit Coláiste Bhríde
On the last day of September, rang a 6 headed off to Coláiste Bhríde in Carnew. This was part of a new initiative run by Coláiste Bhríde to invite 6th class students from their hinterland to get a feel for the school.
We were delighted to be greeted by former Ballyconnell NS students Emma Cullen and Fiach Byrne at the main entrance. Fiach and Emma would be leading us around for the day.
The children had great fun trying their hand at engineering with Mr Holly, art with Ms Elliot, science with Ms Rickerby, music with Ms Glynn and PE with Ms Murphy. There was also a tasty lunch provided!
Many thanks to Coláiste Bhríde and chief organiser, Mr Darren Tobin, for extending an invite our way. Bhí lá iontach ag páistí Bhaile Uí Chonaill.
