This was our last week learning about the farm in Aistear. Next week's Aistear topic is the Vet!

Assemblies may be a little different this year, but every bit as enjoyable to be greeted by Colette, Gemma and Catherine on Friday mornings!

Senior Infants Red took a well-deserved brain break after some hard work during literacy.

The children used playdough to practise number formation. Great work!

Senior Infants worked in their pods as builders, shopkeepers and farmers. They learned about farm life through play and exploration.

​Good morning parents and children of Senior Infants Red and welcome back to a new school year. It was really lovely to see all the happy, smiling faces of children starting their first day of Senior Infants and I look forward to getting to know you all more!

Below are a few pictures of our first week back, we've been very busy already!

Wow, look at the fantastic work children have been doing at home. Thank you so much for all the lovely photos of your work. I love to see the learning you are doing on our theme of Space.

 Hello everyone,

So this is our last plan before we take a two week break for Easter holidays. We want to be sure that we all take some time to relax a bit over the next two weeks without too much work to get done every day. Use these two weeks to get creative, do activities the children enjoy or learn a new skill. Don't forget you can watch School on Tv on RTE2 every day from 11am-12pm.

We want to be sure you have access to some resources that you can use if you'd like so we would recommend the Storyline online app and Starfall app. Storyline Online has a lot of the most popular picture books that are read aloud. Starfall has a huge range of literacy and numeracy activities. You can download the apps onto any device or simply use the websites.

​After Easter we will be up and running on Seesaw our new online learning platform. I'm looking forward to connecting with you all through Seesaw and getting a chance to see the activities the children are doing at home.

Feel free to send on some of the children's activities tomorrow if they would like to see them posted on our blog.

Talk to you all after the Easter holidays. Stay safe.

Best wishes,
​Jane

Hello everyone,

Here's a little snapshot from our virtual assembly that will be available for you all to watch tomorrow, Friday 3rd April from 11am. Be sure to tune in and see all the teachers saying hi. Colette, Gemma, Linda and Catherine have lots of lovely things to tell you too.

Hi everyone,

Below is Thursday's suggested plan.

I would recommend watching RTE's School on TV programme which airs on RTE2 from 11am-12pm everyday. 

I hope you are all keeping well. Feel free to keep sending me your fabulous photos of your work.

All the best,
​Jane
