Hi Everyone!We hope everyone is well, enjoying the good weather and having lots of fun with their families. We know everyone has been doing great work because we got lots of emails last week with pictures and videos of your wonderful work. We are sending lots more activities to keep you busy!Dear parents,We hope you and all your families are well and managing to adapt during these difficult times. Thank you for all the feedback, questions and work which you have communicated with us. We had a number of queries regarding access to Bua na Cainte.Login: trialPassword: trialWe realise how difficult it can be to do work at home without a lot of resources and when you are busy. Lots of people have no printers and may have limited access to the internet so most of the activities we include may be done in a copy or through chat. The timetable and worksheets provided are an additional guide and support and are optional. Please feel free to contact us with any queries and we look forward to seeing more of the great work again this week! Kind regards, Rosemarie Lawlor, Emma Carroll
