Hi everyone,

The tests are now completed and the children seem to have relaxed!! Preparations are coming along nicely for the graduation and they have nearly mastered the dance. No harm in doing a bit more practise at home. I've sent their test copies home, could you please sign them and bring them back in on Monday.

Enjoy the weekend,

Colum

Hi everyone,

Today a parental Involvement day. We have parents coming into the classes, from 1st to 6th, throughout the day. This will involve talks, demos or experiments. .

Wednesday is Coding Day. Junior and Senior Infants will be working in a bee bot room, with parent helpers. 1st to 4th will be using the laptops/iPads for coding with parent volunteers or Paula. 5th and 6th class will be having a 'bring your own device day'(phones, lap tops, ipads, etc.) Sumit and Praveen will be helping out in these classes.

The projects will be inspected by the judges on Thursday so if the children have any work to be printed, please have them emailed to me by tomorrow.

Thanks,
