Parent and Toddler has a roof!

As I’m sure you have all noticed, our little garden has had many worker gnomes visiting it recently. The cob oven and seating area has recently been given a fabulous roof. The foundations have been laid for a little gnome house. The pond has the beginnings of a bridge, and the sand pit is still inching its way to completion. That’s to say nothing of the herb and flower beds which are slowly popping up.
There is probably not a family in the school which hasn’t in some way contributed to creating this magic, so to you all we say thank you. With an extra special thank you to the people who have given up their weekends to assist.
The garden development is ongoing; we meet on a Monday morning. So anyone who would like to enjoy the spring, and allow their creativity to flow, please join us. Or if you would like to meet other parents in the school, please join us. Toddlers not required.
As always, if you know anyone who has preschool children who might enjoy meeting other parents at their stage of life, please let them know about the group. We meet Tuesday mornings 9am to 1pm. They can drop in at any time. For further information call Laura 086 853 9848.

The Changing Scene

We hope you are enjoying the spring bulbs. The classes are working hard to create a beautiful garden in front of the school, using plants donated by a nursery. Soon, creepers will be twining around the pagoda, while little paths will wind around the cherry trees and flower beds.

The poly tunnel has gained a gravel path around it and a beech hedge. It looks ever so attractive. The next step is to get water to the tunnel, so that we can begin gardening. We need to have a mini-digger for a day. If you can help, please contact Gale at 045 406962.

Cherry Trees, Class Play this Friday and the Last Day of School

Dear Parents,

Laura Wynne has made a beautiful design for the parking lot, which includes a lot of flowering cherry trees. She has already collected money toward it, from the business sector. We would like to ask for a contribution of 50 euro each so that we can buy 9 flowering cherry trees. This would be an end-of-year present that would live and grow into the future, creating beauty and something to remember your children by.

If you are willing to do so, please pop the money into an envelope and give to a teacher, or come this Friday, with a cherry tree for us to plant!...because...

On Friday 27th of June at 7pm, after a hard days work, you are invited to come relax and giggle at our play about noses! After the play we will say farewell to the Graduating Class 6, followed by a party. Please bring something yummy for us all to eat.

For those with Class 5 and 6 children, please be sure to arrive at 6:30 so that the actors can dress and prepare.

Grandparents are especially welcome.

Kind regards, Gale
