Parent-Teacher Meetings
Thank you to every family who signed up for an appointment for the parent-teacher meetings. If you haven’t already chosen an appointment, the sign-up is on the main door. We look forward to meeting parents on Tuesday, 25th November.

Board of Management
Thank you to everyone who submitted ballots for the parent nominees. We hope to announce the members of the Board of Management very soon. The Board will have its first meeting before the end of the month.

Letter Sounds
We are continuing to practice letter sounds, introducing a new one each week. We are also starting to look at how the sounds blend to create words. At the parent-teacher meetings, we will introduce a simple way to review them at home.

Gaeilge
We learned some vocabulary related to houses this past week.

teach (chalk, with the last sound like ch in loch) – house

doras (dur-us) – door

fuinneog (fwin-yoag) – window

Na Trí Mhuicín
Bhíomar ag déanamh an scéal, Na Trí Mhuicín, sna ceachtanna Gaeilge an tseachtain seo. Bhain na páistí a lán taitnimh as na mascanna. 
We have been doing the story of The Three Little Pigs during Irish lessons this week. The children enjoyed playing the characters using the masks.
