Skype is up and running in Scoil Eoin Pól.

There was great excitement in our school today as we 'skyped' our Polish and Armagh Comenius Partners.

It was a great success.

Road Safety Roadshow.

We had a big day in school recently. We had a road safety road show. The highlight was a visit from the Ambulance Service, fully equipped ambulance driven by our past pupil James Walsh, uncle of Conor and Caolan. All the classes got an insight into the working of a paramedic.
The Lord Mayor of Donegal was there too along with a number of counsillors. Thanks to Mary Clinton who brought the roadshow to Loch an Iúir.
Just at the end we had a great suprise...who trotted in but Eamon Magee and Sam Maguire! A great day for all in the school. We will post pictures soon.

A few photos from end of year fun in May/June.

Blogging Problems

Apologies to our partner schools but we are having technical difficulties with our blog... the filtering company was changed over the summer and we cannot read our friends' blogs in school. We hope to be able to fix this soon.
