Goatstown/Stillorgan ETNS

A ‘warm’ Happy New Year to all from us in Goatstown ETNS! As you can see the cold snap is not holding us back one bit!

@CJ_Fallon First Class are working on Master Your Maths Week 9. We are having a debate on how many wheels a car has. We noticed your answer book says 14 but some of our class voted that a car also has a steering wheel. How did you come up with your answer??

@GreenSchoolsIre Thanks for sharing that today is National Tree Day. We’re making the best of the weather here and enjoying a game of Conkers under this magnificent tree! @AirfieldEstate we want to grow some Conker trees. Any advice?

@GoatstownE We’re missing you all! Can’t wait to be down on site. The conkers are a big hit again this year so we might need to make sure these trees come with us!

@GoatstownE First Class would like to know if you planted/propagated these conker trees?? Or did they grow from last year’s windfall?? Any info would be great?

@coilltenews any advice on how to look after these trees during the coming winter??

We need #roalddahlday every day! @roald_dahl @roalddahlmuseum

Fabulous portrait paintings from our new Junior Infants!

First Class are not ready to let go of summer vibes with that glorious sunshine outside! Some delicious artwork here!Enjoy the sun this weekend!

A warm welcome back to all our pupils today. Great to see everyone eager for lots of fun & learning! And a hearty welcome to all new pupils who have joined us. Wishing everyone a wonderful year ahead.

It might only be 1 week left in the term but great things are always happening in here! 3rd class show their steady hands and formidable team work while 1st class show their creativity in their super fun obstacle course! Have a great weekend all!

In November we welcomed a very special baby teacher to 1st Class! We’re very privileged in GETNS to have learned so much from all her milestones! Today we said goodbye but hopefully only goodbye for now! @EducateTogether @RootsofEmpathy @Barnardos_IRL

Best of luck to all students starting Junior Cycle & Leaving Cert. exams this morning! Especially thinking of @GoatstownE

A pleasure to stop and admire the artwork from our infant classes. Junior Infants exploring the Dot and seeing nothing but possibilities. No limitations on the faces of our Senior Infants. So lucky to have such creativity!
