Be sure to tune into The Poetry Programme with Olivia O'Leary on RTÉ Radio 1 at 1.30pm on Monday to hear Robin Denehan from second class read a short poem.
Junior infants partake in team teaching every morning. They cover sounds, blending, rhyming, letter formation and lots of other fun things in small groups.
Thank you to Barbara, the editor of the Kildare Nationalist, who was kind enough to include a piece about our First Holy Communion class in today’s edition.
