 We had a wonderful spectacle of sporting prowess this morning when 6th Class pupils took on their teachers in a basketball game. It was an amazing event for players and spectators alike. A veteran player, in the name of Fergal, joined the teachers after half-time much to the delight and cheers of the crowd. The end score was..... no one was counting, it was such good fun!!! 28/6/2023
Farewell to Fergal Today, the children of Hansfield bid farewell to Fergal in their own special way. They hosted a special assembly with music and song, advice for retirement, messages from past and present pupils, gifts and much love and thanks to a very very special principal. The children will miss Fergal so much but will hold the fondest of memories of him in the years ahead. See the video for a taste of this special occasion... 23/6/2023
The Class of 2023 Graduation There was many a tired person here today following last night's graduation ceremony for the Class of 2023. There were speeches, certificate presentations, music, dance and memory videos, all of which made the night so special. Fergal and teachers spoke of their admiration of and pride in this wonderful group of pupils. They have watched them grow over their years in primary school and rejoice in the wonderful young people they have become. We are sad to lose the Class of 2023 but wish them every success and happiness in what lies ahead. 23/6/2023

'The DIg' at Hansfield
You may remember last year that Draíocht sent us the 'Playground Orchestra'! Well this year they sent us a piece of theatre called 'The Dig'. All our classes attended this entertaining performance.
It told the story of Mac who all his life had wanted to be an Archaeologist, to be an expert in finding things and working out what they mean. If only he could stick to the facts and not get carried away with his highfalutin stories. Mac shares his thougts and ideas with the children and the fun begins....
Thank you to Draíoct for their contribution to our school!
