A Message From Ms Bourke

Good morning girls! This is the last day for school work until next Tuesday.
So put those books away ! Have you noticed the birds singing these mornings?
I love birdsong but they drive my cats mad! Now that I am spending lots of time 
indoors with them I realise how little they actually do. Everywhere I look they
are sleeping..usually where its warm and sunny! Are you getting to know your
animals better now you are spending time with them?

Have a lovely weekend!
Ms Bourke


​Message from Ms O'Dea
Good morning girls!

Well done on getting to Friday, you have worked so hard and you should be very proud of yourself! This week has flown by and I really can't believe that it is the 1st May. I am really missing school and would love to be doing art this afternoon with you, listening to music and hearing you girls chat away. 

This weekend is a Bank Holiday, so we haven't set any school work for Monday. Have you anything nice planned for the weekend? We are having a family game of Uno over the internet this weekend, it's great fun and everyone can join in. I'm going to bake some caramel slices also. I'll show you a picture next week!

Well done girls on signing in every day, you have been really good and hopefully Jackie will announce us as winners today!! 

I have been inspired by Ms Haughton and am attaching a picture, how many squares can you see? Make sure to comment with your answers on the blog!!

Take care 

​Ms O'Dea

Good morning Ms. Bourke,

Hi I seen 9 squares. A few days ago I had a great day I managed to persuade my mam to think about getting me a cat. So I'm letting her think. And now it's all about homework so it is getting hard

Ms Bourke
1/5/2020 13:39:18

Hi Paige,
Its great to hear from you. We will have to wait until Ms O Dea tells us the answer! Good luck with the cat..yes give your mam some time to think about it ! It means being a pet parent...forever!! So its smart to think carefully before you make a decision. We hope to get lots of feedback about the work we are setting so that its not causing stress for people. So let me know how you are getting on with it. Anyway its a long weekend so you can put the schoolwork away until TUESDAY!! Enjoy the rest!
