Monday 22nd June

Hi boys,

I hope that you all had a lovely weekend.

As you will be missing your school tour this year, we have decided that we can do the next best thing. All of this week on Seesaw, we will be going on virtual school tours. I know you’re going to love them.

As for the other schoolwork, I will still be posting the regular work. I will be leaving it up to individual families to decide what portion of this work they do. If you want to continue on with the workpack, gaeilge, phonics and grow in love, they will all be available as usual. For those wishing to wind down this week, I would suggest that you take part in the Seesaw activities each day anyway.

We’re on the home stretch!

Have a great day,

Ms K
