The Great Debate!

28/9/2017

 
The teachers and pupils in 5th and 6th Class have decided to organise a debating competition. Ms. Cusack and Ms. McCabe choose a motion for the children to debate. Three children from 5th and 6th Class are chosen to represent their class in 'The Great Debate!'. The other members of the class are also given an opportunity to contribute to the debate and argue their points against the other team.

We held our first debate today, arguing whether or not school uniforms should be worn. 6th Class proposed the motion that school uniforms should be worn and 5th Class opposed the motion that school uniform should not be worn. The debate was a huge success! Both teachers are extremely proud of the students for their behaviour, preparation and efforts leading up to the debate and during the debate itself.

The competition was extremely close, with only one point between the two teams. However, 6th Class won the debate this week. A big well done to both classes!

We look forward to our next debate!

Outstanding Achievement!

A triathlon event was held recently in Enable Ireland, Naas. We are proud to say that one of our pupils from Allen N.S. took part in this challenging event. Ned, a Second Class pupil, trained hard in preparation, which empowered him to complete the swimming, running and cycling course with ease.

Ned was supported on the day by his family, friends and classmates. He was cheered on and met at the finish line by one of his teachers, Mrs. McCabe!

Well done, Ned!
We are all extremely proud of you.
