Happy Friday Senior Infants

Posted on by

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.

Continue practising your counting here with Ms. Whyte and continue to have a look at the school website for more activities School website.

Have a lovely week Senior Infants. Continue to play and have fun using your imaginations!

Missing you All!

Hello again to all the brilliant pupils of St. Gabriel’s NS!  I hope that you are all feeling confident, healthy and strong.  This week I did a little bit of cycling and running and a lot of walking to keep myself healthy and strong like you.  I also did some baking and made some delicious, healthy granola and some even more delicious chocolate chip cookies!!

There were more cookies than this but they seem to have disappeared somewhere!

Yoga                                                                                                                                         I was so impressed last week to see a video of someone doing their morning yoga on Seesaw.  I am still practising holding the Tree pose and I am definitely getting better.      This week I want you to practise the Warrior 1 pose. Stand tall and don’t forget to breathe.  Think warrior thoughts like “I am brave, I am strong”.

Writing                                                                                                                               Remember you can be any age and still think up an amazing and creative story.  If you don’t feel confident writing your story down then illustrate what you have created or else just tell someone the story as people did in olden times.  This week I want you to think If you could have any fantasy pet, what would it be and why?

Finally to the children and their families in the school who will be celebrating a little differently this weekend than they would normally, wishing you peace and health.

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
