The Bug Hotel

Elaine Garde from the Heritage Council engaged our first years in a lively energetic workshop about biodiversity and pollinators. The girls discovered the link between the letters of the Ogham Alphabet and nature, the relevance of the seasons and the continuity of life. They learnt the language of ecologists and the importance of bees and other pollinators to humans. They made mini bug hotels which they hung in the school yard. This complements the work of the TY girls who built a large bug hotel in September. Elaine kindly launched their bug hotel and commended their planting of pollinator friendly plants. St. Vincents are well on the road to aiding the National Pollinators Plan.
Many thanks to all students and staff for their aid in this project, especially Vivien for sharing her construction wisdom and skills. many thanks to Bernadette Connolly from Cork Environmental Forum for kindly funding this workshop.

Out extremely talented 2nd Year Art students recently hosted a 'Flash Art Exhibition' in the Social area of our school. The exhibition displayed how our students used simple objects to ignite their creativity to develop their own original artworks. This helped the students recognise that art can be generated from the world around us and inspiration can come from anywhere.

Art Exhibition

Today Tuesday September 25th St Vincent’s 4th Years were treated to day out in beautiful West Cork as part of a cross curricular learning experience between the Science, Art and History departments.  Starting with a guided tour of the art exhibition Coming Home: The Great Hunger currently running at the West Cork Arts Centre in Skibbereen, the pupils saw works by Jack B. Yeats, Paul Henry, Rowan Gillespie and Dorethy Cross to name but a few.  Next, they explored the picturesque shores of Lough Hyne and the Knockomagh Wood Nature Reserve just outside Skibbereen, where they were kept busy collecting scientific data on various flora and fauna along with creating on-the-spot artworks in pencil and watercolour.  The trip was finished off with a viewing of a unique art installation on the grounds of Skibbereen Community Hospital titled 110 Skibbereen Girls which commemorates a group of teenage girls who emigrated during the time of the Famine to Melbourne Australia. 
Prome Hossain: “Going to Skibbereen was an unforgettable experience…Waking up early was definitely worth it!”
