Loving God,
We ask you to wrap our family in a cloak of love and protection as schools re-open this year. Bless Boards of Management and Staff as they continue the good work already begun to ensure a welcoming and safe environment for all. Bless parents and guardians as they again entrust their children to their schools, confident that all can work together to help them become the best that they can be. Above all, God of Love, extend your hand of mercy on all the girls as they joyfully reunite with their friends and all in the school community. May they progress in their studies and always know that they are safe, secure and protected in your loving embrace. We know much will seem very different this year but your love and care for each of us will never change. May we show the same love and care for one another in all we do and say this year. Amen Special blessings and words of welcome from Fr Gerry
We got there together though we had to stay apart.......Who could ever have imagined when we started out the year last September that life could change so dramatically as it did with the outbreak of the Corona Virus and the emergency school closure on March 12th . It certainly has been a difficult and challenging time for us all since then, but we got to this point together even though we've had to remain apart.
Take a look back at all the many examples of the fabulous art work, dedicated school work, creativity and new methods of learning which happened at home in response to the Covid-19 situation and the school closure.
A wonderful reminder to us all of your hard work and determination in keeping up with your school work and meeting the challenges of home schooling with such enthusiasm. Well done to you all. 'Special Times' 2020Google Classroom
Special thanks must go to Ms Doyle for her foresight, wisdom and hard work in introducing Google Classroom a year ago to our school and to Ms Loughnane, Ms Murray, Ms Ni Fhaoláin, Ms Boyd and Ms Cumiskey for their practical knowledge and skill set in bringing it all to such valuable use and providing us all with a much needed platform for our distant learning over the course of the lockdown.
The great gift of Reading
While our much loved and valued school library remains quiet at the moment, we hope you are all continuing to find pleasure and joy in you reading at home. Check out your local library for a huge selection of ebooks and wonderful reading material.
