Hello Boys and girls, I hope you had a lovely week. Thank you for sending me pictures of your wonderful work. I was very excited to see some of the work that you have been doing. It is great to see so many creative drawings, words and sentences, maths work and play happening in your homes. Keep up the brilliant work!!!!

This week we are going to look at the zoo and some of the amazing animals that live there. Remember you don’t have to complete everything on the list, just try your best.

I am looking forward to seeing more of your fantastic work and pictures this week. Don’t forget to get plenty of fresh air and play outdoors in the beautiful sunshine. Be kind, help Mammy and Daddy and keep washing your hands often!


Take care,

Mrs O’Neill
