Thursday Note 27th April 2017
April 27th, 2017Dear Parents/Guardians,
We hope you are well this week as we start into our final term of the current school year. I hope that you had a relaxing and enjoyable break over the past two weeks. Our news is as follows
- Thank you to all our parents who supported the recent Easter raffle organised by the Parents’ Association. A total of €446.80 was raised for school funds.
Unfrogettable!!!
April 26th, 2017We received a “conseignment” of frogspawn a few weeks ago. Within a couple of days the frogspawn had turned into Tadpoles. We are watching the tadpoles every day and looking at their progress. We have a few already developing their back legs! We read that tadpoles like to eat anything green, in particular green grapes – however we quickly realised the importance of the saying “Don’t believe everything you read on the internet!!!!!”
