Planting

This month all the classes will be doing some winter planting of garlic and onions.

Slogan Competition

We ran a slogan competition about biodiversity with the senior classes before lockdown and got lots of fantastic entries! Here is a video with Anna (Maeve’s Green Schools rep) to show the 4 runners up and the overall winner:  https://we.tl/t-atNgLOoA90

Here is our fantastic winning biodiversity slogan from Amy and Elizabeth in Naomi’s class:

‘From the biggest elephants to the smallest ants, from the tallest trees to the smallest plants’

Keeping in Touch

As you know the school is using the Aladdin App Noticeboard to communicate general messages to you. Please download the app to your phone to receive notifications of these messages. Teachers also are now using their individual @get.ie email address to communicate with you. Please use this email address to contact the teacher rather than the [email protected] address. Also please keep any contact between the hours of 8am-4pm Monday-Friday.

Frása na Seachtaine:

“Tá sé fuar, cá bhfuil mo chóta and mo hata?” – “It’s cold, where’s my hat and coat”
