The Year of the Rabbit

23 January 2023

Chinese New Year 2023 is the year of the Rabbit. We embraced the cultures of one of our students. We learned all about Chinese home customs for their New Year. Thank you to Leon and his mother for making the whole class Chinese dumplings. They were devoured. It is lovely to have first hand knowledge of different customs in the class. We also made Chinese lanterns.

Making our Pizzas in Supermacs

23 January 2023

Eoin in 4th class won a competition with Supermacs where his class won a pizzas making class. We went this morning and had a great time. Supermacs were wonderful and so organised. We were busy kneading and stretching dough and putting on our favourite toppings. Best of all we was eating it! It was delicious 🤤

Scoil Iósaif Naofa is a vibrant and multicultural community which embraces all creeds, religions and backgrounds while promoting our Catholic ethos.

We promote an appreciation and love of Irish culture and language while also forging a knowledge of and respect for other cultures within our school. Our school motto is “Amor Vincit Omnia” which translates to ‘Love conquers all’. We aspire to holding this motto as part of our daily interactions and teachings.

Our pupils thrive because they are supported, encouraged, cared for and given a real sense of belonging.
