A Thuisti,

Our assembly last Friday on 2D and 3D shapes was very enjoyable. The children enjoyed learning about the various shapes during the week and their knowledge of the shapes at the assembly was extensive.

Our Boys’ Gaelic Football team are playing in Castlejordan tomorrow (Wednesday October 1st) at 2.00p.m. It is a very long trip so we will be leaving the school at 1.00p.m. We will need help with lifts.

Our Girls’ Gaelic Football team are playing Coole in Skryne this Thursday (October 2nd). They will be leaving the school at 2.15p.m. We will need help with lifts.

During the month of October all classes will be visiting various libraries in Meath. These events are free but the children will have to pay €5.00 each for the bus.

First class pupils will shortly start learning the tin whistle in school. The cost of the tin whistle and book is €15.00. Please send in the money in an envelope.

Credit Union continues in the school on Fridays. It was great to see children joining last week. It’s a very important for children to get into the habit of saving from a young age. The website valuesmoneyandme.ie is a website worth viewing as it helps children to take responsibility for managing money. It brings to life for children the world of money and how it affects them and others.

Our final gaelic football coaching session takes place this Wednesday. We would like to thank Eddie Mc Cormac for training all classes over the last few weeks. The children really enjoyed his sessions.

We would like to remind parents that invitations to parties can’t be given out inside the school grounds.

Reminder: Art & Craft (€20.00) and Insurance (€8.00) Irish Independent (€8.00). Please return Parental Permission Form and Contact Numbers Form to the office.

Is mise,
Seamus Tansley.
