Dia dhaoibh ar maidin
‘Anois teacht an Earraigh, beidh an lá dúl chun shíneadh’ Hope you are all feeling a ‘spring’ in your step now that the days are a little brighter!
Here is some news from the last two weeks:
- Tionól Lá ‘le Bríde’ / Special Assembly for St Brigid’s Day: The entire school community enjoyed a special assembly for Lá ‘le Bríde/ St Brigid’s Day. Rang 3 re-enacted the story of Brigid’s cloak (with very creative use of the play parachute!), Rang 2 sang a song to Naomh Bríd and Rang 4 recited a poem. A number of classes showed us the Crosóga Bríde/St Brigid’s crosses they made, played Gabhaim Molta Bríde, and we all joined in with ‘Brigid’s Kiss’ to finish. Beautiful art works decorated the walls of the hall for the event. Bhaineamar an-sult as!
2. DKIT Sport: Rang 3 are currently enjoying P.E classes in DKIT Sport. This is part of the training for students in DKIT and we are happy to assist them with this as our children are getting a chance to receive high-quality activities from the college students. All of the college students are, of course, Garda vetted.
3. The Tuairisc Aontaithe/Agreed Report form the most recent Board of Management meeting can be read here.
4. Today is Lá na Sábháilteachta Idirlín/ International Safer Internet Day. Every class from Rang 1 – Rang 6 will have a lesson about Internet Safety today. Use this opportunity to speak to your child about Internet Safety. There are useful resources for parents at this link: https://www.webwise.ie/parents/
5. Ádh mór/ Best of luck to the teams from the school who will be taking part in the Credit Union Quiz tomorrow night in the Fairways. Beidh siad go hiontach!
Míle buíochas, Áine
