IT was an exciting week for children in Flemby NS, Caherleaheen NS and St John’s Parochial School in Ashe Street when we visited on Tuesday morning.

The junior infants had all been settling in well since starting this week and were getting to know each other and their teachers.

In Flemby NS, teacher Fiona Cooke said the six pupils were all very excited on the first day, but some had siblings in the same classroom so they settled down well.

Over in Caherleaheen NS, teacher Eveleen McCarthy said the 21 pupils there were very good on Monday and settled in in no time.

Meanwhile, in St John’s in Ashe Street, the five junior infants only started on Tuesday morning in Ms Fitzell’s class. Another new arrival was the Principal, Aoife Benton, who started her new job on Tuesday.
