Other School Activities
School Choir
Our school choir sings at special school masses and celebrations such as First Confession, First Communion, Confirmation, Service of Light and masses for the opening and closing of the school year.
Junior Achievement
Classes from Senior Infants up to Sixth are involved in Junior Achievement. This programme teaches our pupils about enterprise, the importance of education and the skills they need to succeed in a changing world. It allows our pupils to gain a deeper understanding of teamwork, decision making, creativity and communication skills. A business volunteer visits a class once a week for six weeks. Each lesson is very hands-on and activity based.
Junior Entrepreneur Programme
Fifth and Sixth classes take part in The Junior Entrepreneur Programme (JEP). This is a 10 - 16 week entrepreneurial education programme for primary school pupils. The programme helps participating pupils to develop a number of skills including literacy, writing, presentation, drawing, technology, research skills, numeracy, financial, consumer awareness, storytelling, listening skills, creative thinking, problem solving, team building and collaboration skills. The programme has a significant personal development impact on participating pupils, building confidence, self-awareness and self-esteem, and an appreciation of individual skills and talents.
Saving Scheme
Children in classes from Second to Sixth can participate in the Dundrum Credit Union Schools' Saving Scheme by saving on a weekly basis.
