Christmas Concert 2013

This year we decided to hold a Christmas Carol Service and Nativity in the Church.  It was a lovely  musical evening during which the children performed a wide variety of Carols, played their tin whistles and other musical instruments and the Junior and Senior Infants performed a Nativity play.  The service was enjoyed by all, well done to everyone who took part.

Science Exhibition

This year in Ballinacarriga NS we have been working hard to achieve the Discover Primary Science and Maths award. As part of this we held a Science Exhibition, which involved the children setting up some of the experiments they carried out over the year and demonstrating and explaining these to all of our visitors. The day was a great success and we hope that  everybody who visited us learned something new.

Best of luck to the Cork Ladies!

Ballinacarriga NS want to wish the Cork Ladies Football team the very best of luck on Sunday 7th of October in the All-Ireland football final.  Everyone had something red on in school today, Fri 5th October, to show our support.
