Senior Infants were busy making clay pinch pots this week.  They had great fun moulding their pots and painting them once they were dry.  They filled them with sweets to give to their families as a Valentine's gift.

Our school is supporting Safer Internet Day 2018. Safer Internet Day (SID) is an EU wide initiative to promote a safer internet for all users, especially young people. It is promoted in Ireland by the PDST Technology in Education and Webwise. The Theme for Safer Internet Day 2018 is “Create, connect and share respect: A better internet starts with you”. Safer Internet Day 2018 will be celebrated on Tuesday, February 6th. We encourage parents to access the website www.saferinternetday.ie to access very useful information and guides on things like cyberbullying, social networking and much more. Here in school the pupils in Ms.O'Donovan's 5th class created some fantastic resources for Safer Internet Use using Adobe Spark. These are a great example of how the internet can be used as a positive means of communicating!

Ms.Concannon's class had a busy week. They designed some lovely posters for Internet Safety Day to display in our computer room and around our school. Pancake Day also came early for the girls! They got to taste pancakes with a selection of toppings including lemon, syrup, marshmallows and lots more!

Junior Infants have settled in well to their second term in St.Brigid's. They are continuing their hard work with their phonics and have started using their shared readers too. Junior Infants have enjoyed the theme of 'the Supermarket' in Aistear, learning about Biodiversity, exploring our new bird houses and feeders, using the computer room and having their grandparents visit their classrooms during Catholic Schools Week. It is great to see the girls continuing with their health lunches too after Food Dudes. The girls are looking forward to learning lots of more new things after midterm break!
