Éabha’s persuasive writing piece has been selected as the one to be read to Ms. Steedman’s class. She will need some support going over there today.
Is Selling Sweets in School a Good Idea?
By Éabha
Miss Steadman’s class are selling sweets for the Junior Entrepreneur Programme, but is it a good idea?
The idea is good because students are learning business skills like marketing, budgeting, and teamwork. Coming up to Valentines Day and calling their product ‘True Love Treats’ is a genius move. Their product is also well presented—the sweets come in a clear plastic cone, showing the effort they put into this business. I am sure many students who bought them think they were really good too.
However, some families only allow their children to have sweets except on weekends, so they might feel left out. Additionally, our school policy only allows sweets on Fridays. What if students want to support the business but can’t? A possible solution could be offering a healthier option.
And don’t get me started on the pricing. The price is three euros for one cone and two for five euros. This deal encourages students to buy more, which could lead to health concerns. Should that incentive be there?
Overall, I think a good solution would be to offer a healthier option and reconsider the special offer.
Some dates for the diary. Ms. Lojek is running a Chess tournament at lunchtime beginning after the midterm break so next Monday we will have a class competition to select the top 2. We will be doing kite building in the library on the 11th of March. Hurling and football skills competition will be run off at lunchtime when the soccer tournament completes. The school needs 1 girl and boy for hurling and football (4 total to represent the school in the West Wicklow competition).

We read about Strongbow a few days ago. Richard de Clare, known as Strongbow, was an Anglo-Norman knight who played a key role in the Norman invasion of Ireland (1169–1171). He married Aoife MacMurrough, securing his claim in Leinster. He died in 1176 and was buried in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin, where his effigy remains today. There was a question after the story the last day – This story is set in the 12th century, what test of maturity might a father expect his 15 year old son to pass in modern times. It began an interesting discussion in class and I came across tis story last night.
Ralph had always loved football. From the moment he could kick a ball, his uncle was there, watching, supporting, and coaching. As Ralph grew older, his talent became clear. He worked hard, played with passion, and eventually earned a place at QPR, playing Championship football.
His uncle loved telling stories about him. People thought his proudest moment might have been when Ralph was called up to the first team, scored a hat-trick, or dribbled past top players to smash the ball into the top corner. But no—it was none of those.
His proudest moment came when Ralph was just 14. That day, he faced a midfielder who was bigger, faster, and stronger. Ralph struggled. He lost challenges, got beaten in the air, and couldn’t keep up. His uncle watched, feeling for him. Football can be lonely when things aren’t going your way.
But Ralph didn’t complain. He didn’t blame the ref. He didn’t give up. He started thinking—how could he adjust? Where should he be? How could he work harder? He didn’t dominate that game, but he kept fighting.
That was the moment his uncle knew—Ralph would be a great teammate, no matter how far he went in football.

Frienship week continues, have you thought about your gift on Friday. There is badminton in PE today but we will also play a Friendship game. Let’s take a read of this Friendship story.
The Boy Who Wanted a Friend
Liam was 11 years old, a hard worker, and always tried his best at everything—whether in school or on the football pitch. But there was one thing he found difficult: making friends. He didn’t know how to start a conversation or join in when others were laughing and joking. He wanted friends, but he just didn’t know how to go about it.
Situation 1: The Football Match
One day at school, Liam saw a group of boys playing football at lunch. He was a great player, so he thought if he joined in, maybe they’d like him. But when he got near, he hesitated. What if they didn’t want him to play? What if they thought he was trying too hard? Instead of asking, he stood at the side, waiting for someone to invite him in. No one did. When the game finished, he walked back to class alone.
Situation 2: The Group Project
Another time, in class, the teacher assigned a group project. Liam wanted to work with a group of boys he admired, but he was afraid to ask. He sat quietly, waiting for someone to include him. Eventually, the teacher had to assign him a group, but by then, the other boys had already bonded. Liam did his part well, but he still felt like an outsider.
The Outcomes
Negative Outcome (Situation 1): Because Liam didn’t ask to play, the boys never knew he wanted to join. They weren’t trying to ignore him—they just didn’t realize he was interested. Over time, Liam felt more and more like an outsider, making it even harder to join in.
Positive Outcome (Situation 2): This time, Liam decided to take a chance. He turned to one of the boys and said, “Hey, can I work with you guys?” To his surprise, the boy smiled and said, “Yeah, sure!” The group included him, and while he was still nervous at first, by the end, they were laughing and talking. It wasn’t instant friendship, but it was a start.
Discussion Questions:
1. What was different about the two situations?
2. Why do you think Liam struggled to ask to join in?
3. How do small actions—like inviting someone to play—make a big difference?
4. What advice would you give Liam?
Liam’s story shows that making friends isn’t always easy, but sometimes, taking a small risk—just asking—can change everything.

We had our list of reasons for taking sweets away from tills ready to go yesterday until Ms. Steedman’s class arrived in with their Junior Entrepreneur Programme business idea. Can I first say, Ms Steedman’s class have come up with this idea and are working very hard to make this business work but for fun we are going to write a letter to persuade them to stop the business.
Here are our reasons for and against.
In Favor of the Junior Entrepreneur Programme & Selling Sweets:
1. Encourages Business Skills – Teaches students valuable skills like marketing, budgeting, and teamwork.
2. Great Presentation & Branding – The sweet cones are well-designed and visually appealing, making them an attractive product.
3. Fun Treat for Students – A sweet cone is a nice reward, especially with Valentine’s Day coming up.
4. Incentivizes Creativity & Effort – Students put effort into designing, pricing, and selling their product, making the project more engaging.
5. Encourages Sales Strategies – Offering a deal (two for €5) helps students understand pricing strategies and customer behavior.
6. Raises Money & Teaches Profit-Making – A real-world experience of making a profit from their own business idea.
Against Selling Sweets in the Junior Entrepreneur Programme:
1. Health Concerns – Too much sugar can lead to health problems, and students may eat more than they should.
2. Encourages Overconsumption – The “two for €5” deal could lead to students buying more than they actually need.
3. Environmental Impact – Plastic wrappers and leftover sweets could lead to littering around the school.
4. Lack of Healthy Alternatives – No option for students who may want a healthier treat.
5. Educational Responsibility – Shouldn’t students also learn about the effects of excessive sugar consumption? Maybe labels should include ingredients and warnings.
6. Potential for Distraction & Pester Power – Some students may pressure their parents or friends to buy sweets, and it could create distractions in class.

Title – is a question
Paragraph 1 – states the issue, the reader should still not be aware what side of the argument you are on.
Paragraph 2 – gives the opposing point of View (giving the opposing point of view makes your argument stronger and more convincing)
– it shows you understand the topic and have thought carefully about it
– by mentioning the opposing Point of view you can now argue why it is weaker
– it builds trust with the reader by acknowledging important facts
Paragraph 3 – gives our Point of View
Paragraph 4 – a possible solution to the issue
Here is a recent newspaper article (not a real article). You are being asked to write a persuasive letter to Taoiseach Michael Martin in favour or against this new policy.
Banning Sweets at Supermarket Checkouts WORKS!
Banning Sweets, Chocolate, and Crisps at Supermarket Checkouts Appears to Stop Unhealthy Impulse Buying by Shoppers, a Large Ireland Study Reveals
A major study in Ireland has found that banning sweets, chocolate, and crisps at supermarket checkouts has led to a significant drop in unhealthy impulse purchases. Researchers analysed data from 30,000 households, comparing their buying habits in the year before and after major supermarkets implemented the ban. The results showed an immediate reduction in purchases of these high-fat, high-sugar snacks, with the decline continuing as long as the policy remained in place.
The study revealed that shoppers at supermarkets that removed unhealthy products from checkout areas bought nearly 20% fewer of these items. Experts believe that many of these snacks are picked up on impulse while waiting in line, particularly by parents shopping with children. By placing these tempting treats at the checkout, supermarkets have been accused of using “pester power” to encourage unhealthy purchases—children see the products and pressure their parents into buying them.
The success of the supermarket bans has now caught the attention of the Irish Government, which is considering making the policy mandatory across all stores. While sweets, chocolate, and crisps would not be banned from supermarkets entirely, retailers would be required to keep them away from checkout areas.
Public health experts argue that such measures are necessary to help tackle the nations health. In addition to checkout restrictions, supermarkets would also be required to limit special promotions on unhealthy snacks to further discourage impulse buying.
As Ireland debates a nationwide ban, the findings from this study highlight the potential for simple policy changes to influence healthier shopping habits.

Following on from your Elevator pitches last week, we will be taking on some persuasive writing this week. We will go through what makes a good piece of persuasive writing later today and tomorrow you will be begin planning your persuasive writing. In our persuasive writing we will have 4 paragraphs, the first paragraph states the issue, the second paragraph gives the opposing opinion on why there should be homework (obviously leaving out vital details to make the 3rd paragraph more convincing). The 3rd paragraph gives our point of view and the final and 4th paragraph is a possible solution to the 2 viewpoints. Let us take a look at this format on a piece called ‘Should there be Homework’.
Should There Be Homework?
Homework has been a part of school for a long time, but is it really necessary? Some people believe homework helps students learn and prepares them for the future. Others argue that it takes away from free time and causes unnecessary stress. So, should students have homework, or would they be better off without it?
Some teachers and parents believe homework is important. They say it helps students practice what they learn in class, making sure they remember important lessons. It also teaches responsibility, time management, and prepares students for high school and college. Without homework, students might forget what they learned and struggle on tests.
However, homework can actually do more harm than good. Studies show that too much homework causes stress, anxiety, and even lack of sleep. Many students spend hours on homework after already working hard in school all day. This leaves little time for hobbies, exercise, or family. Instead of helping, homework can make students dislike learning and feel overwhelmed. If class time is used wisely, students shouldn’t need extra work at home.
A good solution is to reduce homework instead of getting rid of it completely. Teachers could assign only important work that helps students, rather than giving busywork. Schools could also offer study sessions where students can complete assignments during the day. This way, students still get extra practice but also have time to relax, play, and spend time with family. Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds?
We are onto topic 2 of Stay Safe. Today we are going to think about friendships, what makes a good friend, how we keep friends and how we resolve any disagreements which we might have with a friend.

We will complete reading the Industrial Revolution today, we will identify te key information before ‘Saing More With Less’ and making a SketchNote tomorrow.
For our project day this month we will make Electric Cars, we will put the books away for a day either this week or next.

There was some great elevator pitches yesterday. I took Senan’s pitch and typed it up. It is called – Why Kids should get paid to go to School.
Why Kids Should Get Paid to Go to School
Adults get paid to go to work—so why don’t kids get paid to go to school? When you really think about it, school can actually be tougher than work. Adults get to choose their jobs, but we don’t have a choice—we’re required to be here.
We spend six hours a day in school with only two short breaks, while many adults get an hour or more between meetings. Even teachers complain about school sometimes, but at least they get paid for being here.
And what about families struggling with money? If kids earned something for their time in school, that extra income could help support their families.
It’s time to start seeing school for what it really is—hard work—and work deserves to be paid.
Apologies to Rían, I completely forgot about your artefact, hopefully you have it back it today.

Art from earlier this week.

There has been a huge effort put into the first 11 days of our juggling. I know some of you might feel there has been very little progress but believe me I can see huge improvements.
Juggling can be tricky at first, so teaching resilience is key! Here are some resilience tips.:
Embrace Mistakes
✅ “Dropping the ball is part of learning!” – Every mistake is a step toward improvement. Even expert jugglers dropped the ball thousands of times before mastering it.
Focus on Progress, Not Perfection
✅ Improvement happens in small steps. If they can keep the balls in the air for a second longer than yesterday, that’s a win!
Reset and Breathe
✅ If frustration builds up, pause, take a deep breath, and try again. Learning new skills takes patience.
Skills grow with effort – your brain is learning every time you try! “I can’t juggle… YET!” is a great way to reframe struggles.

Last week for Artefact Thursday, Mason brought in a huge amount of football memorabilia. Football memorabilia collecting is the hobby of acquiring and preserving items related to football history. Collectors seek jerseys, autographs, match programs, tickets, boots, and other artefacts from clubs, players, and historic games. It’s a passion-driven activity, with rare items holding significant sentimental and monetary value, connecting fans to their favourite teams and moments in football history. 1 notable piece of memorabilia was a souvenir match programme from the 1999 Champion League final between Man United and Bayern.


International LEGO Day is celebrated annually on January 28th, marking the anniversary of the patent for the original LEGO brick in 1958.

From simple childhood play to complex architectural models, LEGO encourages imagination and problem-solving. esterday you were asked to build golf putters, here are our results. Well done.

PE today, we will have a number of warm up games before playing badminton again. I will be selecting 2 players for the upcoming Ms. Morris’s badminton tournament. In the lunchtime league, the Future Legends will be playing. Here’s a short story for all our footbal teams playing in the lunchtime league over the next few weeks.
The Unbreakable Spirit of Jake Turner
Jake Turner wasn’t the fastest player on the pitch. He wasn’t the strongest, nor did he have the dazzling footwork of a superstar. But what he had was heart—more heart than anyone who had ever laced up a pair of boots.
Playing for the struggling Midlands FC, Jake rarely tasted victory. His team was always the underdog, outmatched by wealthier clubs with star-studded lineups. Losses piled up, but Jake never let the scoreboard define him. Every game, he chased down every ball, fought for every tackle, and ran until his legs burned. Even when they were five goals down, he sprinted like they were seconds from glory.
Opponents noticed. “Why do you keep going?” one star striker from a top team asked after scoring a hat-trick against them.
Jake just smiled. “Because the game isn’t about winning—it’s about giving your best.”
As the years passed, players who had won trophies came and went, but Jake’s name was never forgotten. Coaches knew that no matter the situation, no matter the challenge, Jake would always show up.
By the time he hit his 30s, he wasn’t just a player—he was a leader. Clubs wanted him, not for his stats, but for his unwavering spirit. He became the player every young star wanted by their side, the teammate who would lift you up when you were down, and the man who proved that true success isn’t measured by victories, but by effort, heart, and resilience.
And so, while Jake Turner never became the top scorer or the most decorated player, he became something far greater—a legend of dedication, the one who never quit, and the teammate every player dreamed of having.

Well done to all our jugglers and well done to our visualisers also. 20 days of juggling left.
Let us listen to how snowboarder Alex Deibold visualizes before the gates open .
Here’s a little help for our visualisers – Three Ball Juggling Visualization Script
Find a quiet place where you can sit or stand comfortably. Take a deep breath and close your eyes.
• Imagine you’re standing in a calm, open space. The ground beneath you feels firm and stable. The air is fresh, and you feel completely relaxed.
• In your hands, you’re holding three juggling balls. They feel light and perfectly balanced, just the right size for your grip.
• Visualize yourself holding two balls in your dominant hand and one ball in your non-dominant hand. Your hands are relaxed, your shoulders loose.
• Take a deep breath. Imagine the rhythm of your heartbeat syncing with your breathing.
• See yourself tossing the first ball (from your dominant hand) into the air in a smooth arc. It rises effortlessly, reaching the perfect height—about eye level.
• As the first ball reaches its peak, imagine your second hand gently tossing the next ball in the opposite direction.
Establishing the Cascade
• Picture the rhythm now: toss, peak, toss, peak. The balls are flowing in a steady cascade, crossing paths at the same height but never colliding.
• Your hands move with precision and ease. Imagine the motion as fluid, almost automatic, like a natural rhythm you’ve mastered.
Staying Calm and Focused
• If a ball falls in your mind’s eye, pause and reset. Picture yourself calmly picking it up and resuming the flow without frustration.
• Focus on the feeling of control, of being in tune with the movement.
Adding Confidence
• Now, imagine yourself juggling with absolute confidence. The balls feel like an extension of your body. They move seamlessly in the cascade, and you feel a sense of accomplishment.
• Picture a smile on your face as you realize how much progress you’ve made.
Ending the Visualization
• When you’re ready, visualize catching each ball gently and holding them in your hands. Feel the satisfaction of completing the routine.
• Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, slowly open your eyes.
You’re ready to bring this visualization into reality. Each time you practice, you’ll get closer to the flow you just imagined.
Tomorrow is the final day to get our RDS photography consent form in. You will receive another permission slip next week which is a school permission slip.
We are on Lesson 3 of Stay Safe, in today’s lesson we will be learning about A Child’s Right to be Safe. You will become familiar with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. You will understand that with every right there is a responsibility.
Think of it like being on a soccer team. You have the right to play in the game, but you also have the responsibility to show up for practice, work hard, and play your position well. If you don’t fulfil your responsibility, the whole team might struggle, and you might lose your chance to play. Rights and responsibilities are like teammates—they have to work together to win the game.
How are your elevator pitches coming along. What topic have you chosen?
Here’s another elevator pitch as to why schools be open 7 days a week instead of 5
“Imagine a world where schools are open 7 days a week—pure magic, right? Picture this: Millie mastering Monday math, Hugo tackling Tuesday history, and by the weekend, Aran, Fatima, and Kayla are giving back by washing teachers’ cars! (Because why should weekends be just for Netflix?)
Think about it—two extra days to learn, grow, and, of course, help out with all those coffee spills in the teachers’ lounge. We’ll raise the next generation of unstoppable, well-educated superheroes… and our cars will never be cleaner. 7-day schools: making dreams—and windshields—shine!”

We have new homepage and if you need to look back on notices since September go to Home 2 in the menu.
You will see on homework this week that there is no Spellbound and instead you will be doing an elevator pitch. An elevator pitch is a super short and clear explanation of an idea, project, or who you are—like a mini commercial about something you want people to know. The idea is that it should be so quick and simple you could say it during a short elevator ride, like 30 seconds to a minute.
Here are some ideas you can choose from this week.


My Elevator Pitch to Michael D Higgins 🙂
“Okay, imagine a world where Mason, Rían, Amelia, and Alma go home after school with no homework. What would happen? Chaos, that’s what! Mason would be up all night playing video games, Rían would be trying to train his dog to do parkour, Amelia would start plotting world domination (she’s totally capable), and Alma would decide she’s moving to the moon because, why not?
Homework keeps all of that under control! It’s the glue holding society together. Without it, brains turn to mush! If anything, we need more homework. Picture this: a world where Mason writes an essay about why pizza is awesome, Rían solves a math mystery about how many cats it takes to rule the world, Amelia invents the next big thing in science, and Alma writes a story so good Netflix wants to buy it.
Getting rid of homework? No way. We need to eliminate that idea instead! More homework for all, and may the pencils always be sharp!”
