Learning Circle Project 2012

The students in Inver National School have just completed a Learning Circles project.
Our partner schools were in New Brunswick in Canada, New Jersey and Washington in the USA, in Tartarstan in Russia and in Katmandu, Nepal. We did a project about places and perspectives with them.

Our project was called ‘Outside the school gates’ and we wanted to compare what we see outside our school with what our partners see when they go outside their schools.

This is what we found and you may follow the links to compare the areas:

Inver National School, Ireland
University Prep, Seattle, WA, USA
Woodstock Middle School, Woodstock, New Brunswick, Canada

Football Blitz

On Thursday 1st March the Inver National School boys Gaelic team took

part in a gaelic blitz in Tallagh. Our first game was against Ceathrú

Thaidgh. It was a brilliant game with the scores ending up 2-3 to both teams.

Everyone tried their best and did not give up! We were delighted with this result. Our second game was against Glencastle. Again everyone played together as a team and we beat them 6-3 to 1-0. We ended up having to play Ceathrú Thaidgh again and unfortunately they beat us this time.

We were delighted with the way we played on the day and celebrated by having a nice splash around in the pool afterwards!

Our girls gaelic team also did us proud today when they took part in the blitz. Our first game was against Bangor, a very tough team. We tried our best but unfortunately they had the beating of us, 4-2 to 1-2.

We shook their hands after the game.

Our second game was against Belmullet. It was a tight game all the way and it ended up finishing with a draw, 1-2 to both teams. Again we shook hands with the other team and left the pitch feeling very pleased with ourselves. Everyone gave it their best shot and a fun day was had by all. We are so proud of both teams!!!!

 

Both the boys team and the girls team played very well in their games.
