We are all very excited to reopen our doors at 9am on Wednesday 25th August. We are looking forward to welcoming our new Junior Infant pupils and their families.

Our thoughts are also with our 6th Class of 2020 as they prepare for the transition to secondary school over the coming days. We wish them every success and happiness for the future. We extend our gratitude to their families for their support and generosity throughout their time in All Saints’ National School.

We are looking forward to a fun and exciting year of learning ahead. Many thanks to our entire school community for your continued support and cooperation as we continue to implement the DES Covid-19 reponse plan to ensure our school remains a safe learning environment for all.

The children throughly enjoyed learning all about the Earth and the importance of caring for it. They also planted lots of fruit and vegetables, made beautiful flower crowns, and had lots of lovely outside time reading and having picnics 🌼

The children have been learning lots of ways to manage the many different feelings that children feel and finding ways to make their heads happy.

1st and 2nd class practice Gratitude in their copies every morning. Junior infants write in their Happy Head copies every morning 🌈⭐️

Yoga is a firm favourite and the class is full of budding yogis 🧘‍♀️

The children listen to Mindfulness music and use breathing practices to help when they are feeling lots of hard feelings ⭐️

In March, the children became experts in Animal Care, they performed surgeries, administered vaccines and took care of lots of poorly animals in Role Play and Small World. They built roads, bridges and buildings for easy access to the surgery in emergencies in Construction. In play dough, they created bandages, made medicines and worked on their Literacy and their Numeracy skills. The future animals are in great hands 👩🏼‍⚕️👨🏼‍⚕️⭐️

The children are having a great time in Aistear this month, they are protecting our classroom as Gardaí in Small World, Role Play, Construction and Art. They have been working on their Literacy and Numeracy skills, ensuring people are keeping to their 5km and writing reports and wanted posters. We certainly feel safe with these future Gardaí 👮🏻‍♀️👮🏻‍♂️⭐️

There was great excitement this morning when we received a very special message all the way from the North Pole. Santa Claus surprised us with a magical video capturing his visit to school. The children were delighted to receive their very thoughtful gifts. Santa even signed our visitor log! A huge thank you to Santa Claus, the elves and reindeer for making Christmas very special.
