You are all doing incredible work uploading beautiful art work, recording fantastic reading, writing descriptive sentences, challenging yourself at maths, putting a lot of effort into history and geography projects, trying different science experiments, reading and writing as Gaeilge, coming up with imaginative ideas for drama, practicing your singing and staying active doing different indoor and outdoor fun activities for PE. Every day Ms O’Leary, Mrs Condron, Ms Hanlon, Ms Dunne, Ms Fitzpatrick and I look forward to seeing the wonderful work you upload. Please continue to upload your fantastic work for us all to see. If you have not uploaded something yet, challenge yourself, let this be the week you do!

Happy Friday Senior Infants

Hello boys and girls in Senior Infants,

How are you all this week? I hope you are all doing well and enjoying this time with your family. This week, I took a photo of the lovely sunset on my farm. It is beautiful isn’t it?!

I am so delighted with all the effort and work you are doing on all your activities. Every day, I look forward to seeing your photos and videos and hearing your voice messages of all the wonderful work you are doing along with all the fabulous activities you are doing at home.

If you still have not posted on Seesaw, I would be delighted if you could so I can see your wonderful work along with Ms. Whyte, Ms. Fahey, Ms. Hanlon and Mrs. Condron. We enjoy leaving lovely messages on your wonderful work!  Remember, there is no pressure or obligation to upload anything onto Seesaw. Remember to keep all the lovely work you are doing so you can show it to me when we return to school. If you are having any issues with Seesaw, please contact our HSCL teacher Mr. Donnelly who is always happy to help out when he can!

This week, I have been putting together a variety of activities that your child may have-a-go at if it suits. Here is a link to Suggestions for Senior Infants.

Assembly Monday 18th May

Dear children,

I am such a proud principal seeing all the wonderful work you are submitting and I look forward to seeing the assignments of those of you who are working directly from packs and from the website when we get back.

SeeSaw is really fun to use and if you or your parents need any help using it be sure to give Mr Donnelly a call!!

 

I was a happy principal and Mammy this week when I saw that myself and Hollie could read some books and answer questions! Poppy the dog even got recorded barking and growling!! We try to do 2 or 3 tasks every day but if some days it doesn’t work out that is fine as I am trying to do all my principal work and Hollie’s Daddy is also gone back to work.

Every family, student and staff member from St Gabriel’s N.S. is doing their very best in an ever changing situation so well done to you all.

Vivienne, Andrew, Pauline, Emma, Sharon D, Sharon H, Ashley and Maighréad miss you all so much and say a big HELLO!!!!!

I am sad to say that this is Ms Dunne’s last week with us. She has been a wonderful addition to our school and we will miss her.

If you want to send her a picture or goodbye message your teacher will pass it on through SeeSaw.

 

 

Try and get as much fresh air as you can and practice throwing and catching a ball this week if you can. See can you catch and throw without dropping 20 times!

 

I hope our Communion children had a nice day on Saturday. Maybe you dressed up or still had a party!

Happy Birthday to Phillip and Carlos!

Work hard this week, get fresh air and be nice to your family as we look forward to better times.

Missing you all,

Suzanne Comerford

Happy Friday

Hello Senior Infants,

I hope you all have a wonderful week, and are continuing to enjoy the magnificent weather we are having. Are you enjoying the beautiful weather? I hope you are all getting outside to play and enjoy the sunshine.

This week has been a busy week for Miss Reynolds. I have been in my vegetable garden most days, checking on my onions and potatoes. Here are some photos of how well my vegetables are growing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do you know what vegetables need to grow? Vegetables have the same basic needs as we do; light, food, water and warmth. It is important that these basic needs are met so vegetables grow. I know some boys and girls in Senior Infants are busy looking after their vegetables!

Here is a link to the Food Dubes website. They have activities you can download to help you learn about eating lots of fruit and vegetables.

Ms Dunne’s Work May 15th

Hello everyone,

I hope you have all had a lovely week and that you are all well. Some of you may have even enjoyed an extra stretch and gone up to 5km away from your home for exercise. I have had a lovely week enjoying the sunny weather just like the animals on the farm and can’t believe how much the baby lambs have grown!

 

I am so proud of the work and effort you have been putting into your schoolwork and all the fabulous activities you have been filling your day with! Thank you for your Seesaw posts, it really makes my day to see all of you looking so happy and busy.

 

Keep reaching for the stars!

 

Please find attached some suggested activities for next week that you may like to complete.
