Good Wednesday Girls!

I am here listening to birdsong on another sunny morning!

I hear a robin, wren ,bluetit ,blackbird..and sometimes a pigeon cooing. Seagulls fly over too but I really don't count them as 'singers"! There is a family of magpies in the tall trees behind my house..and while they are VERY CHATTY it isn't the beautiful singing of the smaller garden birds

 Sometimes a flock of geese fly overhead ..heading up to The Bull Wall, their wings making a WHOOSH kind of sound

As some of you know I have an app on my phone called Garden Birds. I can learn a little about each bird. But the best is I can hear the song each one sings!I 

I am more of a MORNING PERSON!! I am lucky to have a little back garden. So on these lovely mornings I have my breakfast out there..maybe sevenish..and just listen to the birds before my workday begins!

I hope all you other EARLY BIRDS are enjoying the MORNING CHOIR!!

​Ms. Bourke

Message from Ms O'Dea

Good morning girls

How are you all this morning? I'm getting excited for our Zoom chat tomorrow. It will be great to see all of you tomorrow and hear your news. Make sure that you have read the contract and that you have responded to Ms Greene's email, before the call tomorrow. 

Also have a look at Ms Greene's blog post from yesterday. It outlines details of the Walk for Niall. This is a walk that is taking place on Sunday, where families are encouraged to go for a walk, it could be in your local park or around your house and to  wear blue. This walk is in honor of Niall who is Ms Durnin's husband. He fell ill last December and he has been in hospital since then but he is coming home in June. It would be great if we could virtually all support Ms Durnin and her family. There is no pressure to do this but it is just an idea.

Take care
Ms O'Dea

Hi Ruby,
My cats are relaxing here beside me!
We are having a Zoom assembly. Are you familiar with Zoom? If not Google Zoom, nice it’s on your screen click Join a Meeting. When asked put in the ID and password Ms Green sent. Then wait and you will automatically appear as Ms Greene “ invites “ you. It is our first time so it’s new to us all. Looking forward to seeing you later!

Hi Amelia,

It was great to see you on the call. That's great that you are going to go for a walk with your family on Sunday. I know Ms Durnin will be delighted to see all the support.

Most importantly did you see the great news that you won the competition on Friday. Well done you!!
