Scoil San Nioclás recorded a great victory over St Canice's B team in Nowlan Park on Thursday evening. This was a great achievement as it was our first year in Roinn D, having won out Roinn E last year. Tremendous credit is due to our coaches Simon Brophy, Jimmy Purcell and Tony Doyle for their dedication. As always the people of Windgap turned out in great numbers to support our team. We are very proud of our players and supporters. Go raibh míle maith agaibh go léir.

Swimming Gala 2016 was a big success for Scoil San Nioclás.

Buddy system between 6th class and 1st &2nd class a great success!

 
Schools Badminton 27/04/2016.
 
On Friday 22 April, we went to Kilkenny Watershed to play schools badminton for the day.  There were two teams, a boys team and a girls team.  On the boys team was Karl, Killian,Killian, Jack and Evan and on the girls team was Sontae, Nathania, Emer, Sarah and Abby D.  In the first round we played Mullinavat, and in the second round we played the Model School and the third round we played Johnswell.  We played very well in those rounds.  We got into the semi-final, we played Johnstown and we won, so we got through to the final.  In the final we played Johnswell.  In the end the score was 49 – 61 and Windgap NS won it out.  We are now Primary Schools Badminton Champions!!!!  We won a plaque but we have to return it next year.  We all got individual trophies.  Overall it was a good day.

Scoil San Nioclás Census Day 2016.
As Sunday was Census Day in Ireland third and fourth class decided to hold  our very own School Census Day on Monday, April 25th.
Our School Census Enumerators distributed school census forms on School Census Day.  The enumerators answered any questions and helped the children fill the forms if they needed help.
The next stage was counting.  Our School Census Scanners went through the filled forms and called out the answers to our School Census Tally people who kept count.
When the counting was completed our School Census Data people plotted on graphs all the information gathered in our School Census.
We were able to view all the data easily and quickly on the graphs at a glance!!
From the data we have the information we need to make our school a better place!!!!
