I will be meeting with parents in the hall for about 30 minutes on Thursday at 9.30. We will look back briefly over what we have been doing in school and I will introduce the homework plan. We will be starting that after Halloween.
The following week, the photographer will be coming in to take the Junior Infant photographs. We will be sending out permission slips once they arrive at the school. Please let me know if you want older siblings to have their photo taken together.
We had a great Goal Jersey Day on Friday. At last collection on Friday, you had raised nearly E700!
In school, we had great fun playing Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We read the story and then also listened to the fantastic Debbie and Friends on You Tube.

We had lots of fun pretending to be Goldilocks during a drama lesson. We also did some "hot seating" where "Goldilocks" visited the class and the children got to ask her questions. We had some great questions like "Why were you out in the woods on your own?" "Were your Mammy and Daddy worried?" "Did you feel bad for breaking Baby Bear's chair?" The children played with finger puppets and worked on retelling the story this way.
Still working away with our fine motor skills. We are taking in a few skills here, finding matching pairs and also the motor skills. This one is always a parent's favourite! A great reason to help with the laundry, get those socks rolled! :)
We had a visit from Aisling Walsh from the ESB on Thursday. She talked to us about electricity safety and keeping ourselves safe on the road, especially in these shorter, darker days. The children received a high visibility vest and colouring pencils. We had a very bright yard that day, a see of florescent children! :)

We have been learning all about autumn over the last few weeks. Look at our lovely art!
And here we are at work and at play over the last few weeks.
