Windy morning greetings and the BEST challenge EVER!

22/5/2020

 
Well hello there ladies,

I nearly got blown away this morning on my walk in the Phoenix Park! But we can't complain, we have had such wonderful weather since the school has been closed, and by all accounts Sunday is going to be a beautiful day so we have that to look forward to!

I also have something else to look forward to this morning- my first Zoom assembly with the 6th Class girls! I can't wait to see them all and have a great chat. It will only be for about 15 or 20 minutes, but it should be great fun. All the teachers who are involved with 6th Class will be there too. If it goes well this morning, I will be in touch with the rest of the classes over the next couple of weeks to get assemblies organised. So keep your fingers crossed that we don't have any blips today!

GUESS THE STAFF MEMBER CHALLENGE
Ok girls I have the BEST challenge EVER! I asked the staff to tell me an interesting fact about themselves and you have to try and guess which staff members matches with each fact. Some of them are so funny (now!), I was laughing all day yesterday when I was getting this prepared- in fact I even cried laughing at one point last night.

If some of the girls from 2nd class might not be too sure who all the teachers are, they could look at the video we made to remind themselves. I have a funny feeling the 6th Class girls might know a lot of the answers.

The prize for the family that gets the most correct is......... a €20 Just Eat voucher, so get your thinking caps on! Send me your guesses by What's App to 0861805158 by 8pm on Sunday night. Make sure you number the guesses and you sign off with your name, in case you are using a phone number I don't have saved.
​
Good luck!!! I will be posting a video with the answers, and maybe some funny stories to explain them next week!
Slán,
Ms Greene
