In October the 4th years were practicing their debating skills in Irish class. Here are the class engaging in a debate. The class had a controversial topic to debate 'School Uniforms: Are they necessary?'.

I mí Deireadh Fómhair bhí an 4ú bliain ag déanamh cleachtadh ar a scileanna díospóireachta sa rang Gaeilge. Seo iad an rang i mbun díospóireacht. Bhí  rún conspóideach ag an rang 'Éide scoile: an bhfuil siad riachtanach?'. 
Ar deireadh bhí an bua ag foireann Oonagh, Jakob, Sophie, Emma, Greg and Melanija lena n-argóintí suntasacha. Maith sibh!
