Even Mr. Gallagher got some Mad Hair for the day!
Today was Mad Hair Day in Scoil Ursula. We all tried our very maddest of hairstyles in school and had so much fun showing off our creations with all of our friends!

Thanks so much to all of the mums and dads who helped in making this a really crazy Mad Hair Day!

All of the generous donations raised today are going to our charity partner, Children Helping Children. You can read all about their work with poor children throughout the world here: http://www.wmi.ie/children-helping-children

We hope you all have a really really Happy Easter and enjoy the relaxing break!

As always our heartfelt thanks to the pupils, parents, staff and Board of Scoil Ursula for all of your hard work and support in making the school as fantastic we all know it is!

Oliver Spellman RIP

20/3/2015

Yesterday morning we lost a dear friend and former colleague from Scoil Ursula. Oliver Spellman was the caretaker of the school for many long years. A lot of the parents who went to Scoil Ursula and indeed some of the teachers too will remember Oliver as the big strong man that he was as he went about his work when they were pupils here themselves. Many of the staff and former staff have such wonderful memories of Oliver, his good humour, his passion for football and the countless times he went above and beyond the call of duty for the school. 

He is dearly missed by all of his Scoil Ursula family but even more so by his loving wife Maeve and two daughters, Ursula and Fiona and all of his extended family and friends from Sligo, Buninadden and beyond. 
Tomorrow the choir of Scoil Ursula, including past pupils who have gone on to both Summerhill College and the Ursuline College  will sing at the Mass of the Resurrection for Oliver in the Cathedral. This is a fitting tribute to a man who loved  a great song. 

Rest in Peace Oliver, we'll miss you.

Seachtain na Gaeilge 2015

20/3/2015

 
Ar an Aoine seo caite bhí Lá Ghlas sa scoil. Bhí gach duine gléasta in éadaí glasa. Chuir muid ceolchoirm den chéad scoth ar siúl ar maidin. Bhí amhráin, dánta, rince, ceol agus dramaíocht againn. Bhí gach dalta ar fheabhas agus bhain muid uilig sult as an tsiamsa. San iarnóin bhí tráth na gceist ag Ranganna 3-6. bhí ceathrar i ngach foireann. Bhuaigh foireann Orán, ciara, olan agus Niamh.

Bhí an Lá Glas ar fheabhas!

Congratulations to our Girls 5-a-Side Soccer Team who finished runners-up in this year’s competition in the Regional Sports Complex. Led by inspirational captain, Deborah Farrell, they topped their group with a draw against Mercy Primary and a big win over Grange NS. This put them into the final against St. John’s NS, Ballisodare. Despite the girls' best efforts, they went down 3-1  in a very tight decider and the winners will now go on to represent Sligo in the Connacht Finals. Our girls were presented with their medals by members of the Sligo Rovers Football Team led by midfielder and FAIS Co-ordinator, John Russell.
