29th March - I hope you’re not too tired after losing an hour with the clocks going forward! 😑 Today your Lent calendar asks you to pray for children who don’t have any homes. As well as that, try to say a wee prayer of thanks for your home, your family and your friends. Have a lovely relaxing Sunday boys and girls. Stay safe. ❤️

28th March - It’s Saturday- no school work today boys and girls! 😀

Your calendar tells you to help sweep the leaves in the garden! I hope you don’t have too many! 🍁 🍂 🍃 

Enjoy the rest of your day. Have lots of fun! Stay safe. ♥️

27th March - It’s Friday already boys and girls! 

Well done on all your hard work! 🌟👏🏻
Thinking of Miss Byrne’s class today who should have been performing at assembly. 

 

Today’s act of kindness is to donate toys you don’t play with anymore to charity!

I remember doing this as a child. I was very reluctant to give anything away-(that was the teacher in me!)😂but I eventually saw the positive side of it. Try to take some time today to look through your toy collection. Hopefully you will find something to donate to charity. Maybe you could write a little message to go with your toy, to tell the next owner what you liked about it. Keep it safe until the day you can deliver it to the charity shop! 

Take care. 😊

26th March - Hello boys and girls! I hope you are all well. Remember to tidy away the dishes after dinner today. As you tidy I'm sure you will help to sort them too, e.g. small plates, big plates, bowls, cups, glasses, cutlery. Look for patterns too. Why don't you count them as well. In our mental maths we have been learning to 'add 1 more'. If you had to add one more plate, one more bowl, one more knife, one more fork etc, how many would you have? How many would you have if you added two more? Enjoy. 👍🏻🍽🥄🍴🍲🍝🍛🥗🍨🍵🥛☕️😊

25th March - Time to turn the TV off and have a chat with your family.  

I miss all our wee chats about your hobbies, pets, siblings, food, style and I especially miss your stories about your weekends. Barnaby had super adventures! Im glad he got to spend time with you all and I know he is safe and well at the minute in one of your homes. Please say hi to him from me. I hope he is being a sensible little bear and not getting up to too much mischief! 🐻

 

Today is also the Feast of the Annunciation. Join Pope Francis at 11am this morning in praying the ‘Our Father’ at the same time with every Christian around the world. 

At 12 noon say the ‘Hail Mary’. 
 

24th March - Today is a sad day for me boys and girls. 😭 Our Lent calendar of Kindness says 'Pay attention to teacher'. 

You always gave your full attention when I was teaching. Remember my question, How do we learn? You always answered, by looking, by listening and by doing. Today you will have to pay attention a different way. Please look and listen to the person who is helping you to complete your activities. Then you can 'do' your best to complete them!

I know you can do it! 👍🏻😊 

 

A special hello to all our P7 pupils who should have made their Sacrament of Confirmation this evening. Thinking about you all. God bless. ❤️

 

23rd March - It says on your Lent calendar to tidy your room! You were great at tidying our classroom! Ask an adult to put on our tidy up song-George Ezra-Shotgun! Can you tidy your room before the song ends?? That’s your challenge for today! 😊

 

22nd March - Today is Mother’s Day!
