Hello boys and girls!
I am so sad not to be able to see you in the classroom, especially as I missed you all so much when I was off sick in December. I hope Santa was good to you and you all got what you asked for. I also hope you’ve been keeping safe and enjoying lots of fun in the snow!
I have planned some work for you to be completed over the next two weeks. Remember to only do what you can manage and what is suitable to your home situation as I am aware that lots of mammies and daddies are trying to look after you at home while working hard at the same time.
Please don’t be afraid to contact me directly via email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you have any questions or concerns. You can also use this email address to send me pictures of your work if you so wish.
If anyone was absent when textbooks were being sent home the school will be open on Tuesday 12th from 11am to 2pm to facilitate collection. Please let Mrs. Mills know in advance if you are collecting books so she can have them organised for you. The school mobile number is 0860577885.
I have decided to lay the work out on a day to day basis but this is only a guideline, you can do more or less depending on what you have going on at home.
Best wishes to you all and stay safe!
