Bonjour to our French Visitor!

As International Week is next week, we met our French friend Louis who is going to help us learn all about France! 


We learned about the three colours of the French flag, which are blue, white and red and got to listen to the story of a French girl called Madeline.

He left a postcard on the Panda's table, introducing himself and giving some very interesting facts about France. Louis even taught them how to say 'Au revoir', which means 'goodbye' in French!

Some important information!

Hello everyone, Just a few reminders and notices for you all. On Monday morning the Junior Infants will start lining up at the numbers '1' or '2' in the basketball court.

We would ask the parents not to come in with the children from Monday onwards as there are a lot of children and teachers making their way to their own classrooms. This will also help to establish a classroom routine and get the children used to coming in without their parents.  The children will also be starting a longer day from Monday, so they will finish at 1.20 each afternoon.  Some parents received Glanmore food menus to avail of the school lunches for the children.

If you didn't get a form today, let us know and we will give one to you on Monday.  Lastly, could you please give your child a baby photo of themselves to bri
