Anti Bullying Week 11-15 Nov. Choose Respect

We will be celebrating Anti-Bullying Week from 11th to 15th November. The theme this year is ‘Choose Respect’.

From playgrounds to parliament, our homes to our phones, this Anti-Bullying Week let's 'Choose Respect' and bring an end to bullying which negatively impacts millions of young lives.

This year, we’ll empower children and young people to not resort to bullying, even when we disagree and remind adults to lead by example, online and offline.

Imagine a world where respect and kindness thrives — it’s not just a dream, it's in the choices we make. Join us this Anti-Bullying Week and commit to 'Choose Respect'. What will you choose?

Tuesday12th November is Odd Socks Day and we join others around the world in wearing Odd Socks.

This is designed to be fun! It is an opportunity to encourage people to express themselves and celebrate their individuality and the features that make us all unique.  

So all pupils and adults can come to school on Tuesday wearing their odd socks. 

 

The odder the better!!

Carnacaville Primary 7/6 Girls Clinch County Championship Title

In a thrilling display of skill and determination, the Primary 7/6 girls from Carnacaville emerged victorious in the All County School Final held at Burren GAA on Saturday morning. The eagerly anticipated match saw Carnacaville face off against St. Colman's Primary School  Annaclone in a game that kept spectators on the edge of their seats.

Carnacaville got off to a blazing start, scoring two goals and a point in quick succession, setting the pace for the match. Despite the early setback, the Annaclone girls mounted a spirited comeback, applying relentless pressure on Carnacaville's defense as the game progressed.

As the final minutes ticked away, Annaclone intensified their efforts, striving to close the gap. However, Carnacaville's girls demonstrated remarkable resilience, maintaining their narrow lead under intense pressure. When the final whistle blew, it was Carnacaville who stood tall as the new County Champions.

The match was a testament to the tremendous talent and sportsmanship of both teams, offering great entertainment to all in attendance. The victory was not just a win on the field but a celebration of teamwork and dedication.

Heartfelt congratulations to the Carnacaville girls for their outstanding achievement. Special thanks to Mr. McGahon and Mr. Mussen for their  coaching and guidance, and to all the families and supporters who came out to cheer on the team. This triumph marks a fantastic conclusion to the school year and a moment of pride for the entire Carnacaville community.
