Congratulations to our two Rang a Ceathair boys who proudly earned the very first pen licenses in the class! Their excellent handwriting, neat work and consistent effort have truly paid off. Well done - keep up the great work!

Rang a ceathair spent the last three weeks bringing history to life by building Motte and Bailey castles using recyclable materials in art. After learning about the Normans, they worked in groups to design and create fantastic mini medieval worlds. It was a huge success!

Rang a ceathair enjoying lots of fun and mesmerising experiments this year for science week!!

Amazing artefacts for our school’s timeline & the annual historical fancy dress.

Amazing builds at our school’s weekly LEGO Club!

The boys made terrifying cakes this year for our annual scary cake competition. The judges had a tough decision choosing the winners!

There was a fantastic turn out, on 15th October, at our weekly WOW ( Walk on Wednesday ) from Cuala for National Walk to School Week. Well done boys!

Well done to everyone who took part in this year’s GOAL Jersey Day on Friday, 10th October. We managed to raise €200 for such a great cause!

We are enjoying rehearsing for our upcoming Christmas Carol Concert.

Rang a 3 really enjoyed history week. Lots of the boys brought in artefacts and joined the whole school history timeline in the yard.

We are so lucky, at Harold Boys’ N.S., to have so many wonderful SNAs. It was nice to show them how much we appreciate their work on 25th September.

The 4th class had a fantastic day visiting the National History Museum, exploring exciting exhibits and discovering fascinating facts about the past. Everyone enjoyed the trip and came home full of stories and new knowledge.

We have started playing hockey this year. Our coach Ben from Avoca hockey club taught us lots of new skills and we really enjoyed playing a new sport.

Well done to all the boys who participated in Walk to School Week 2025! The boys ditched their cars this week and opted to walk, cycle, scoot or park-and-stride to make the most of the dry Autumn weather and help the environment while they were at it. Our Green Schools committee kept a record of the boys who walked each day and compiled our data in a colourful bar chart. Maith sibh a bhuachaillí!

Rang a cúig got Science Week 2025 off to a flying start by creating eardrum replicas to explore how sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate. We have had lots of fun learning about the human ear and sound. Stay tuned to see what exciting experiments we explore next!

Rang a cúig had a blast planning and creating some fabulous bridges using only dry spaghetti and glue. The boys put on their STEM thinking caps and came up with some exciting designs before bringing their bridges to life and testing their durability using a bucket filled with sand! We definitely have some future engineers in our midst!

The active committee ran a whole school competition for our new Active Flag slogan for 2025/2026. Each class had 3 winners. The committee then voted on the slogan 'We were made in 1901 to be active, sporty and have lots of fun' as the overall winner. We are very happy with our new Active Flag slogan for the year. Go raibh maith agaibh gach duine.

Rang a 6 had a great time playing in their GAA league. Well done representing your school! We are all very proud of you.

The boys were all encouraged to walk to school every day. A survey was carried out and 2nd class had the most students walking to school. Maith sibh rang a 2!
