First Class Class Charter

Last week was Good Friends Week and the girls and boys in Mr Smyth’s Class had a fun and busy week.

The class had a visit from Cillian from RTE’s News2Day, which will feature on the television today, Tuesday, 10th September at 4.20pm.

The children were reading the book “Have you filled a bucket today?” and learning about how we can be kind to each other and “fill each others buckets” with kindness.

Check out some of the photos above, which include RTE’s visit to our school and our Class Charter which the children created themselves.

Good Friends Week 2019

2nd – 6th September 2019

Welcome to the new school year. Our focus this year is ‘Be Kind’.

Children will look at what they can do to be kind in the classroom and on the playground. They will learn to understand the impact that one kind word or one small act of kindness can have on another person. Children will also explore with their teachers and classmates all the qualities that make a good friend.

As part of Good Friends Week each class will draw up a class charter with guidelines that they feel are important to help each classroom to be happy, safe, and productive places to be this year.

Ms. Sweetman’s 5th and 6th class will show wonderful kindness this week by becoming Buddies to our new Junior Infant Class.

It feels good to be kind to others and it’s a fantastic way to start the new school year.
