A Note from Ms Smith
Hello girls, how are you doing? ☀️
Good luck with the work today, what’s on your plan? 
It was so nice to see you on our Zoom call yesterday, you've all gotten so grown up in the last few weeks! Starting to look like 5th class girls now, not 4th anymore! So cool! It was really nice to hear your news and have a chat. I know that that was the first time a lot of you had seen your pals since March! With all going well, we should be having another Zoom call next week so there's still time to get your consent forms in to Ms Durnin for that one!
You’ve made it to Friday too! Are you getting up to anything nice at the weekend?
As always if you need any help leave a comment below, even if it’s just to say hi. If you want to message me privately from a parent's email during school hours, my email is [email protected] 
Have a good day,
Ms Smith 😊

A Note from Ms Behan
Good morning ladies!
It was so lovely to get to see so many of you yesterday! I know there were a few little problems with getting some videos and sound to work, but practice makes perfect and it''l get easier each time we do it!
I couldn't believe how fast the time went! Next time we'll have a bit more time to chat and catch up.
​I really enjoyed talking to you on the phone as well! If you/your parents still haven't had a phone call from me it's because I rang your parent's phone and didn't get an answer. Please remind them to answer a call from a private number!
Try your best with today's work, and if you have any question, leave me  a comment or send me an email! You can email me from a parent's email address at [email protected].
Have a wonderful Friday and a lovely weekend!
Ms Behan ​😊​

Good morning ladies! 

We had a lovely day yesterday chatting to you and your parents on the phone. We are so proud of the way you are engaging with the work we are setting you. It's not easy to stay motivated when working at home all these months. But all of you are working away in whatever way that suits you. Keep up the good work!

Good morning girls! 
It was so nice to get to talk to so many of you yesterday! If you haven't gotten a call from me yet, you should hear from me today or tomorrow.
I'm really excited to see you on the Zoom call! A few girls didn't get permission sent back in time, but if that happened, don't worry, we'll hopefully do another one soon!
Bring some of your artwork to the call so that you can show us what you've done! 
Try your best with the work today and let me know if you need a hand with anything. You can email me from a parent's email address at [email protected].
See you later!

Good morning girls!
Here's a reminder again of everything happening this month, just in case you missed it yesterday!

June Work Packs
  • A new work pack is ready on the School Closure 2020 page on the website, click here to find the work. For June, we have eased the workload for you to be doing at home.
  • We would like you to do a smaller bit of English, Irish, Maths every day. We would like you to continue your Daily Well-Being Task and P.E. every day.
  • If you go to Ms Hanly/Ms Ferriter for English and Maths groups, their work is included in our work pack.
  • Something new starting in June is a daily Whole-School Activity.
 
What is the Whole School Activity?
  • In a drop-down menu on the the School Closure 2020 section, select June Activities Block 1 (or click here) to find a daily Whole-School Activity. These are daily tasks in subjects like history, geography, science, music, drama, art and PE.
  • For today, Ms Farrell has a really cool science activity for you to try today!
 
Daily Well-Being Task
  • Keep up your well-being task every day. The Daily Well-being task was set by Ms Brennan today, make sure you give it a shot!

Corrections
  • Part of your work for English and Maths for June will be to correct work you have done in E.I.P. and Mental Maths.
  • Keep doing your new days each day as normal.
  • Starting today, we will post the answers to previous days for you to go back and correct. We would love to correct these with you but unfortunately, at the moment, this isn’t an option for us. You can find these on our blog posts.
 
Zoom Assembly
  • On Thursday Room 3 and Room 8 will be having Zoom assemblies.
  • Make sure your parents return the consent/permission forms to Ms Greene ASAP or you will not be allowed to access these assemblies. If your parent(s) has not given an email address to Ms Greene they can fill in this form ASAP.
  • Check if your friends have sent back these forms too and remind them if they haven't yet, while they still have time! We are so excited to see you! 😁

A Note from Ms Smith
Hello girls, how are you doing? 
I’m looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow on zoom! I’ll have a hard time recognising you, you’ve all probably grown up so much!
I’ll hopefully be chatting with you all today too on the phone! Remember, if a private number calls today, it’s probably me!
Good luck with the work today, how are you finding the new June work? 
As always if you need any help leave a comment below, even if it’s just to say hi. If you want to message me privately from a parent's email during school hours, my email is [email protected] 
Have a good day,
Ms Smith 😊

A Note from Ms Behan
Hello ladies! How are you today? Where did the sunshine go? At least the rain will make everything look lovely and green again!
I am very excited to see all of you lovely faces on Zoom tomorrow! Make sure you send your form back to Ms Greene so you can take part!
Today the teachers will be making lots and lots of phonecalls so make sure you parents know to answer a call from a private number! If I don't get around to calling you today, then you'll hear from me on Thursday or Friday.
Try your best with the work today! I hope you're finding it easier than the work we set in March, April and May. Let me know if you have any questions! You can also email me from a parent's email address at [email protected].
Have a great day!
Ms Behan 😊

Good morning girls!
I hope you had a lovely weekend! How did you spend your 3 days? I went for lots of walks, finished my book and made a lemon cheesecake. It was delicious!
Starting tomorrow, the teachers will be making phonecalls to all of your parents again! I'm really looking forward to talking to you all again! 
Let me know if you need a hand with any of the work today, or if you have a bit of news you'd like to share, post it below! You can also email me from a parent's email address at [email protected].
Have a great day!

Hello girls, how are you doing?
I hope you enjoyed the long weekend, the weather was so nice! Tell me about your weekend below! 
I had a lovely few days, my dad did a barbeque, I met friends in the park to hang out (with physical distance!) and I also did nothing! Just lay in the sun, with a thick layer of sun-cream on and got some much needed Vitamin D! ☀️
Starting tomorrow, the teachers will be making phonecalls to all of your parents again! I'm really looking forward to talking to you all again! 
As always if you need any help leave a comment below, even if it’s just to say hi. I’m loving your emails with photos of your work, art and projects. They make me feel so proud and happy.  If you would like to message me from a parent's email during school hours, my email is [email protected] 
Have a lovely day!
