Over the last few months Ms. Bourke’s 5th class pupils have been working very hard on their JEP project. After much discussion and pitching their ideas to the Dragon’s Den it was decided to produce a cookbook. The pupils busied themselves collecting recipes from teachers,family members and celebrities.We have recipes from Neven Maguire and Paul O Connell to name but a few.
The pupils will launch their cookbook this coming Friday, 24th March.The Junior Entrepreneur Programme has had a huge impact on the pupils personal development, confidence, self-awareness and self-esteem. The pupils had a hands-on look at the world of business, the various challenges and pitfalls and how to overcome these problems by working together as a team. The many strands of the primary school curriculum found expression through the various skills needed to bring a fledgling idea to final fruition.
We will also launch our revised Healthy Eating policy on Friday and our Health Promoting School Committee have lots of activities planned.We would be delighted for you to join us in the school halla for our launch at 1:30.

Cookbooks are on sale from the school at a cost of €10.

The 5th class pupils have put an enormous amount of work into producing their product and have done a wonderful job. They thoroughly deserve our support.
