Hi @Postvox I’m due a delivery today and received this text this morning. I figured it was fake as it’s from a mobile no & links on the cloned website page don’t work. I’ve deleted & blocked the number but it’s definitely one where I did wonder if it was legit. #anpost #scam

First years enjoying their first (of many!) home ec practical classes. Homemade shortbread is a great starting point for skill development. The “rub in” method has a multitude of future uses! Great to see everyone so proud of their baking. #stmarysmallow #lifeskills #teamwork

1st Years certainly deserve a *Distinction* for enthusiasm! Berry crumbles were a huge hit last Friday and helped work on the “rub in” method. A fantastic baking skill to learn with so many other uses… so next up we’re making tea scones!

Nice piece on “change in shopping habits” in @IrishTimesBiz for #homeec students. Some great discussion points and links to money management, healthy eating & changes the pandemic/cost of living have had on our shopping habits. Plenty to analyse for senior students!

Thrilled to see past student of @stmarysmallow Valerie O’Leary on last weeks Irish Times advocating the value of vintage & 2nd hand clothing.👏🏼 The same week fast fashion brand Shein were exposed over shocking pay & conditions. Looking forward to discussing both articles in class

Excellent clip from @rtenews on saving energy in the home. Great discussion point for junior cycle students looking at LO 2.7 #sustainability #responsibleliving https://t.co/M2Riq8bS0L

First years delighted as they experienced their first ever practical home ec class. Key skills included weighing/setting up/rub-in-method/baking/timing/washing-up! Lots of delish shortbread going home & the sense of excitement at how successful they were was so lovely to see!

Made the most of the last of the wild blackberries by making blackberry posset for Sunday dessert💜 A side of shortbread biscuits for good dipping and it was the perfect end to the weekend! Full recipe on Instagram https://t.co/d1f0S231ov

Looking forward to meeting these first year girls over the coming days! Lots planned for our new first year creative textiles module focusing on embroidery, upcycling & embellishing! 🧵 🪡 😌 ♻️ #wellbeing #mindfulness #stmarysmallow

Great tribute to Tim a wonderful character and ambassador for Irish food & farming. May he rest in peace. 🐃🐄🌾

Colourful eats! 🧡💛❤️💚 Photos of what my 3rd year class prepared, cooked and served for this years Junior Cycle Cookery Exam. As this is worth 50% of their final Home Ec grade it was well worth the weeks of practice, preparation & refining of skills! #HomeEconomics

💙🤍Well done #stmarysmallow!💙🤍 An amazing achievement for all involved, what a fantastic sports memory first years, coaches, family and friends will have for years to come!💙🤍🏆🏀👏🏼

A great resource for #homeec healthy eating, nutritious balanced meals and more can be found below. Great visuals available to use with students & reinforce idea of balancing all meals not just main meal of day, which many forget! https://t.co/nyENFrGcxE

Spotted this “healthy lunchbox”🤔 advertised by a local supermarket & I think it would make a great discussion point for my 1st yr Wellbeing class. Healthy food swaps & sugar in foods are areas we’ve focused on so I reckon they might have some interesting views on this! #homeec
