Congratulations to the boys and girls of Senior Infants. You have completed all of your work for Senior Infants this year! Well done on the super work that you have done. You should be so proud of yourselves!!

A massive thank you to the parents of Senior Infants for all of your work and support, you have been amazing throughout all of this!!

I really enjoyed interacting with you all on the Seesaw and I have been very impressed with all the videos, pictures, voice-messages and activities you have done since the school closed in March.

Wishing you all the very best going into first class in September. I know you will all do fabulous!!

I hope everyone has a lovely summer and continue to enjoy our lovely weather!!

Hello everyone!

I have really enjoyed our past three weeks of themed activities. All of your efforts for Sports Week, Art Week and Poetry Week have really been fantastic! Well done to all of you on your amazing creativity!

To our sixth class pupils, congratulations on completing your primary school education. I will miss you all, but as Ms Comerford said in her assembly piece last week, we hope to see you at a graduation ceremony in the autumn. Good luck in secondary school and enjoy!

I am still taking lots of photos of wildflowers when I’m out walking the dog so I have obviously included them in this post! As with my website post at the start of May I already knew the names of some of these flowers but I did have to look some others up to find out what they are called. I used the websites http://www.irishwildflowers.ie/ and http://www.wildflowersofireland.net/ again to help me, as well as a flower identification book. I hope I got them right!

The first two photos are of caterpillars gathered on plants. They are eating lots and lots of leaves as they get ready for the next stage of becoming a butterfly or moth. Find out more information here about the Peacock Butterfly and about the Cinnabar Moth.

Finally, click here and volume up to hear the Dawn Chorus. I took this video around 4am one morning when many, many birds were getting out of bed and having a lovely singsong to start off the day!

I hope you all have a lovely summer!

Stay safe,

Ms Whyte
