Our school will be celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 3rd of March. The main aim of the day is to encourage children to explore the pleasure of books and reading.
As part of our celebrations, children and staff from all classes
are invited to dress up as their favourite book character. If a child has a favourite book they would like to share with their class, they are also invited to bring it to school with them on the day.
World Book Day tokens will be given out to each student. The €1.50 book tokens can be swapped for one of the exclusive, new and completely FREE World Book Day books available from participating booksellers or used to get €1.50 off any full price book or audiobook instead:
Lots of information, resources and book recommendations can be found online at:

This week we had an exciting delivery of some very special trees as part of the DCs for Bees Orchards in the Community project.
We received ten different trees including apple, pear and plum trees. Orchards In The Community is part of the DCs for Bees initiative. Orchards play a key role in providing an early food source for our struggling bees as they emerge from winter. To help protect the bees and increase pollination, they are planting in excess of 1,000 mixed fruit orchards all over Ireland. For more information about this initiative, click on the link below:
Well done to Ms. Bennett's 5th class for taking part in the Microsoft Hour of Code! The children really enjoyed taking part and have learned a lot about coding!
A big thank you to the Hartnett Family for donating this wonderful Lego map to our school recently! We love it and think we almost have it all completed!
There was great excitement in the school this morning when the Senior Ladies Dublin and Leinster Trophies made a visit to the school!
Our Senior GAA team carried the trophies around the school with great pride in celebration of St. Sylvester's Ladies Team who will be playing in the All Ireland Intermediate Club Championship Final this week-end against Castlebar.
Wishing the entire team(with a special shout out to our past pupils!) the very best of luck from the entire PJP community.
