IT’S been a morning of great excitement for children at some schools in the Tralee area as they welcomed new arrivals.
While most schools will open again tomorrow, we called to a few this morning including Clogher, Scoil Nuachabháil and Tralee Educate Together.
There were ten junior infants settling in at Tralee Educate Together at Collis Sandes when we called by. Teacher Katie O’Sullivan said they were all excited to be in school and there were no tears.
A quick stop off at Clogher NS in Ballymac saw us meet four happy young pupils, while it was smiles all around a few miles across the parish in Scoil Nuachabháil.
“They settled in fantastically, they were very good this morning. They’re used to each other from preschools and they would have siblings and cousins here,” said teacher Jacqui O’Carroll. Scroll down for photos…
