What a better way to celebrate Lá Glas ar scoil than with a céilí sa halla!! This was a céilí with a twist and the children danced and enjoyed the music in their own unique way. We had two céilí, one for Junior Infants to 2nd Class and another for 3rd to 6th Class. Do check out our videos. Lá fhéile Pádraig sona dhuit!

PTA Hot Chocolate & Cookie DayOnce gain, our PTA put on a wonderful event for everyone at Hansfield while at the same time raising funds for the school.

A message from King CharlesWhen Queen Elizabeth II passed away last September, Gillian P's 4th Class took it upon themselves to send a letter of condolence to the new King Charles.
They were delighted this morning to receive a card from King Charles thanking them for reaching out to him and his family at a very sad time for them. It seems the King was thankful for this kind gesture from the pupils at Hansfield ETNS. 15/12/2022
