Mrs. Bell
This weekend, our school flag flies at half mast as we mark the passing of former Scoil Chomain Naofa teacher, Mrs. Mary Bell.
Mrs Bell taught in Roundfort for 32 years, from 1968 to 2000 .
As the comments on social media this week have testified, she was a very special teacher indeed. The serenity of her classroom reflected the serenity of her nature. So many people have shared fond memories. There was fundraising silences, a full day of silence in the classroom, only Mrs Bell could have managed this feat! There was gold stars a plenty, each one cherished by the receiver. T.C. or religion, from 12:00 to 12:30 everyday without fail. The tables being piled up at the side of the room for drama on Fridays. Everyone hiding their wooden rulers when it was time for band practice!!!!!(Mrs Bell was a very enthusiastic drummer!!!)
Without doubt, Mrs. Bell will be remembered very fondly by all those who passed under her tutelage.
We would like to offer our sincerest condolences to Marcia, Richard, Harry and the extended Bell family.

Raffle and Mayo Day
On Friday last the children wore their colours to show our support for our county football team. Unfortunately it wasn't to be for the team yesterday but we are no less proud of these lads this week than we were last week. Their dedication to the cause should be a source of inspiration to each and every young person to chase their dream. P.S. - Doesn't the green and red really suit Ms. Glynn!!!!!
We also held our Christmas raffle on Friday. A huge thank you goes out to all of the businesses in the locality who sponsored prizes and to the parents for getting so many sponsors on board and for selling tickets. The majority of prizes went home on Friday with the children but there are still some to be delivered. Thanks again to all involved.
