Mindfulness in the Classroom

Here is an example of a brain break in practice in the Junior Room. Movement breaks are very important in helping children to learn. We use them regularly in our whole school. This video is part of the Flow category on GoNoodle.com and there are lots of other excellent videos which focus on mindfulness.

FeelGood Week-LIDL Teddy Bears' Picnic

Many thanks to our local Lidl who sponsored treats for the boys and girls today to celebrate our FeelGood Week. We enjoyed them during our Teddy Bears' Picnic! :)

FeelGood Week-Book Club

Here are some pictures from our book club today! The children enjoyed reading together in groups. The Senior Room presented their FeelGood tree and we spoke about ways to help others feel good and recognising what makes us feel good too!

FeelGood Week

Next week our school will be hosting a FeelGood Week for Pieta House. This week will focus on ways that we can FeelGood and how we can help others to FeelGood too. There are lots of fun activities planned for the week, please see notes in bags today. 

We are asking everyone to bring in €2 for the week. All money collected will be going to Pieta House. You can also donate online by following this link https://fundraise.pieta.ie/fundraisers/aislingkeane/feelgood-week

On Tuesday there will be a book club. Children may bring in books for a book swap and books to read in the halla. 

Wednesday we will be having a Teddy Bears' Picnic, sponsored by Lidl. Please bring in your teddies!

Thursday is Board Games Day! Bring one in to play with your friends!
