VIRTUAL SCHOOL TOUR WEEK JUNE 15TH-19TH

Hello boys and girls! Good news-we are not doing our usual school work this week but we are certainly still learning.
 (However make sure to work away in any of your unfinished workbooks at home as much as you can over the summer.)

This is the time of year where we would have been going on our school tour. 
Unfortunately we can't visit too many places these days but I've come up with TWO exciting VIRTUAL tours for you to visit this week.

1. First up is the TITANIC EXPERIENCE COBH:

Here are some worksheets to browse through and learn more about the Titanic.

A LETTER TO THE PRIMARY SCHOOL SUPERHEROES OF IRELAND! (AND THEIR PARENTS!)
                               April 2020
                                                                                                                                                                                                              
Dear boys and girls, you’re playing a blinder,
So this is just a gentle reminder
To keep on putting up the fight
And everything will turn out right.
We know that you’ve been good as gold
At doing everything you’re told
To stop the spread, to play your part,
So keep the faith and don’t lose heart.
You followed the rules, you didn’t roam
Beyond 2K - you stayed at home,
And think of all the lives you saved
By doing your bit and being brave.
It seems the world is upside down,
School at home, no friends around.
Churches, libraries, swimming pools,
Cinemas, sports clubs, playgrounds, schools
All closed for now, it seems so strange,
Everything has utterly changed.
Although, at times, the news is tragic,
What you’re doing is truly magic,
Rising to the challenge, holding your nerve,
Managing to flatten the famous curve!
You’re washing your hands for 4 times 5
And keeping hundreds more alive,
Doing your best never to forget
Coughing and sneezing etiquette.
You’ve kindly pardoned our insistence
To keep 2 metres social distance!
Sometimes it might seem the world’s gone mad
And this could make you feel quite sad,
But don’t lose hope, this too will pass,
Even Covid cannot last.
And while we’re keeping far apart,
We can still talk heart to heart.
Remember that you’re not alone,
Say hello, pick up the phone,
Skype, Facetime, Hangouts, Zoom,
You don’t have to be in the same room
To laugh, to joke, to sing, to chat
About the news, or this and that.
You’ve written postcards, or one better,
Some of you have written letters
To family and friends in other lands,
To cousins, neighbours, Grandads, Grans,
Even though their hugs we miss
We can still wave or blow a kiss!
We understand you miss so much
That lovely gift - our sense of touch.
Fist bumps, spuds, goal celebrations,
Face-to-face communications,
High-fives, backslaps, hugs and cuddles,
Getting into team-sport huddles,
Playdates, sleepovers, birthday parties,
Sharing cupcakes, treats and smarties,
All put on ice, but not forever,
Soon you’ll all be back together. 
Simon says ‘Don’t get complacent’!
Or all our efforts could be wasted,
But that’s not something we will do,
We’ll stay the course and see this through,
We won’t let this challenge tire us,
We’re on a mission to kill that virus!
The sun still shines, the flowers still bloom
And one day soon, school will resume!
Whoever thought we’d think it cool
To be allowed to go to school,
But we’ve had lots of time to ponder
And absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Out of cocoons come butterflies,
It really comes as no surprise
That each of you is a superhero,
LET’S GET COVID DOWN TO ZERO!!

Well done, everyone!
From Lorraine Tallon
