Growing Seeds

Ms. Jones’ class have had some great fun recently growing seeds. We planted our seeds and cared for them while they grew. When our Grass Heads had grown, we tried giving them ‘haircuts’


 

6th Class Chess Club Has Begun!… Click on these links to enjoy the game…

Today began the first ever chess club in Scoil Talbot, run and organised by students. Everyone really enjoyed playing their friends or making new friends. Well done to Danny Connell and Samuel Despet! They had the idea for this club, they went around and promoted it, and they organised all the players.  

If YOU would like to play chess, here are three links to help you:

  1. A set of lessons for beginners, including how chess pieces move, how to set up a chess board, and chess tactics. 
  2. Rebecca recommends three ways to begin a game of chess 
  3. A young expert teaches tactics

The 6th Class Chess Club will run for three weeks, Wednesday lunchtimes, in Ms Skelly’s classroom. 6th class children all welcome. How much? Free.

Talbot Girls Qualify for Dublin Finals

The Talbot football team have qualified for the Dublin Finals in May in Irishtown Stadium after winning the South Dublin Qualifiers in the SDFL Stadium. In total 15 teams took part. We were in a tough 5 team group with Adamstown Educate Together, Divine Mercy Balgaddy, Clonburris and St Louise’s Ballyfermot. The girls started with a close fought 1-0 win with Carla getting the winning goal. Kenzie in goal made a number of important saves and Lily and Kathleen made countless defensive tackles. In the next two group games the girls played brilliantly and won 3-1 and 2-0 with four of our goals coming from our three youngest players – 4th class pupils Ava, Leah and Kate with 2 goals. Carla got another goal in the 3-1 win. After 3 wins from 3, we played Clonburris who also had 3 wins and the victor would qualify for the final. In a very tough game and after some brilliant saves from Kenzie, Carla scored her third goal of the tournament in the last minute to ensure a 1-0 win and a place in the final.  In the final we faced Gaelscoil Eiscir Riada of Lucan in a tremendous game of football. Kate scored 2 wonderful goals in a close-fought 2-1 win.  Well done to the 7 girls who participated and a big thank you to all 16 girls who trained last week at school.

Team: Kenzie Moloney, Katelyn Mc Kiernan, Lily Kiszlerova, Ava Gardner, Leah O’Rourke, Carla Johnston, Kate Gayson.
