Dear Parents,
We hope that you and your families all continue to be safe and well as we near the end of April and continue to come to terms with this unusual and difficult time.
We have decided to send out the assigned work for the week on a Sunday evening as we feel this will be more convenient for working parents. Please find attached schoolwork (home learning) for the week ahead, 27th April-1st May, for each class group. This work is also uploaded to the school website under the tab ‘Home Learning’. Again, we would like to reiterate that this assigned work is just suggested, not mandatory. We encourage all families to engage with it and to do whatever you can.
We the staff very much appreciate your assistance over the past number of weeks; we acknowledge the huge effort being made by everyone to keep education going during this difficult time. We remind you to look after yourselves too; self care and your wellbeing is paramount, so take time to replenish your stock in your own way.
We have also sent you a short 10 question survey on home learning (it will take less than 5 minutes to complete). This survey is completely anonymous so please be honest about your child/children’s engagement with the work. The survey will be useful for giving us a snapshot of how everyone is coping with the work we assign and will allow us to adapt it or to provide further support etc. where needed.
Please continue to stay at home and stay safe.
Yours sincerely,
Deirdre Ryan
On behalf of the staff and Board of Management of Castledockrell National School.
