On Thursday 2nd February, sixteen of our Primary 6 children took part in the annual Clash of the Classrooms. This is a literacy quiz run by the local community library based at Little Hands Surestart, Ringfort Road. It aims to promote reading and literacy among young people.
Schools that took part selected a number of pupils from P6 classes. The community library provided a number of copies of books for pupils to read and they got 1 -2 weeks to read these.
St. Eithne's had two teams taking part this year, in competition with two teams from St. Anne's P.S. After a very enjoyable, tight scoring quiz, we were pipped to the post by one point by St. Anne's; who took home the trophy!
Well done to all the children who took part and a huge thanks to Michelle, the Library Administrator, for organising this event.
