Visit from firefighters John & Seán On Monday, Junior and Senior Infants classes had two very special visitors - Station Officer John and Firefighter Seán from Dublin Fire Brigade. They came to talk about fire safety, the role of firefighters in our community and schools and how they do their work. Seán dressed up in his full breathing attire which really impressed the children. They also spoke about the school fire drill and the importance of smoke alarms in the home. They used a real smoke alarm and let the children hear the noise when it is activated, in the event of a fire. A huge thank you to Dublin Fire Brigade and John and Seán!  11/11/2022

Coding class At HansfieldOrganised by Vinaya from the PTA, there was a once-off family coding workshop called "Our Kids Code", conducted by the National Parents Council (NPC) in association with Trinity College and Science Foundation Ireland. The workshop was aimed at families with children aged between 7 and 10, to have a positive basic computer learning experience as a family. The families learnt how to code a game of "Rock Paper Scissors" on the MakeCode platform, which they could download onto a "microbit" and play amongst each other.
