Dear Parents/Guardians and Children,

To our Children, 

Welcome back páistí, we hope you are all well and that you had a lovely, enjoyable Easter break with plenty of fun and some chocolate eggs too! Thankfully the weather was fantastic so there was plenty of opportunities to get out in the fresh air close to your home of course! Now it's time to get back to some school work and set up a little daily routine for yourselves again with the help of the grown ups at home. Your teachers have a guide on your class blog as usual so remember try your best and that's all we ask of you. 

Take care children and we hope we get to see your smiling faces again soon,

Mrs. Clarke and all the staff

To the Parents/Guardians, 

We hope that you and your loved ones have all remained safe and well over the Easter break and that you all managed to enjoy some downtime without the need to do school work with the children.

We appreciate that the children may find it quite difficult to get back into a routine after the holidays therefore feel free to ease them back into work in whatever way suits you and your family. As per usual the teachers have work uploaded on their class blogs but please remember that this work is a guide only and is there to help you but in no way to put you or the children under pressure. 

We would also like to hear from you and to hear how your child is getting on therefore in the next couple of days you will find an option on the class blog to contact the teacher privately via email with any questions you may have regarding your child's work. The teacher will do her best to respond to you within 24 hours. We hope that you all avail of this as we the teachers would love to hear how the children are doing. It will also help to inform the teacher's future planning for your child so please engage and communicate with us via the class email. We would really appreciate it. We look forward to hearing from you.

Thanking you all for your continued support and co-operation,

Take care, 

Mrs. Clarke and all the staff.

Easter Wishes

Dear Parents/Guardians and Children, 

To our Children,

We would like to say Well Done to all the boys and girls who have been trying so hard to do their school work from home over the last three weeks. We know that you have all tried your best and that is all we can ever expect from you. The good news is that it is now the Easter Holidays and that means you all get a break from your school work for the next two weeks. Although this will be a very different Easter break for you all, remember that you can still create plenty of fun things to do in your own home with your families. Why not make Easter decorations for the house or better still bake some Easter goodies with the help of a grown up! Remember to try to stay fit and healthy too over the break and get plenty of fresh air when you can.

Easter also means Easter Eggs!!! Try not to eat too many but enjoy them all the same and remember to share! 

Take care children and we hope to see you very soon.

To the Parents/Guardians,

Now is the time to let the children switch off from school work and to give yourselves a well earned break from the huge effort that you have been making to keep things as normal as possible for your children where their school work is concerned. We appreciate how difficult this has been on everyone especially parents who are trying to balance so much in their daily lives at home. We know that whatever you have achieved at home with the children over the past three weeks has been driven by love and commitment for them and with their best interests at heart always, so Thank you. 

We hope that the Easter break will give you all a chance to catch your breath and ease the pressure that surrounds trying to maintain a school schedule of some sort at home everyday. Remember, be kind to yourselves and acknowledge the great job you are doing. We won't always get it right every day but we try every day and what more can we ask of ourselves.

We hope you all have a lovely Easter in whatever form that takes, take care, stay safe and we hope to see you all soon. 

Mrs. Clarke and staff
