A group of girls from Brownstown I.F.D.C participated in a feis in Athy on Sunday 12th March. The talented young Irish dancers brought home an amazing array of medals, trophies and a plaque. We are very proud of them!

World Book Day
We had a wonderful day here celebrating World Book Day with lots of colourful and imaginative outfits. The children all got a chance to walk the red carpet in style in their fabulous costumes.
6th Class Dream Space Maker Challenge
We completed our first Dreamspace maker challenge. We worked in teams to plan, design and problem solve as we designed working windmills. These skills will help us to code our Microbits in the near future.
Thank you to Louise Lawlor from Newbridge Library for helping us out!
Clean up day for Spring.
We are very busy with our spring clean today. The children and staff made a fabulous job of sweeping away leaves and using their litter pickers to fill the bins. Well done everyone!
Our Green Fingered Junior Infants.
Our fantastic Junior Infants were able to bring home their beautiful narcissus plants which were in full bloom. The children had planted the bulbs themselves under the guidance of Ms Gomez and Ms Bailey. Well done everyone!

A visit to Sandycove.
Our 6th Class went on a very exciting field trip to Sandycove with a marine zoologist and environmental scientist to observe the flora and fauna and explore the sea shore. The weather was fabulous and the children had a fantastic time with some fascinating discoveries along the way! We would sincerely like to thank Kildare County Council, Louise Lawlor and all involved in making this a very fun and educational trip for the children.
