Pictured: lucky 1st and 2nd class had a trip to the library today. Their speaker had to cancel at short notice but we arranged for them to go on a library detective hunt instead. They enjoyed stories there and received a free book to mark World Book Day tomorrow. I am delighted with how well they behaved.

We are delighted to have been asked by journalist Jen Hogan to contribute to an Irish Times article on how the war in Ukraine is affecting children. At an age appropriate level (3rd-6th class), I will talk a little about it on Friday at assembly as children may well be thinking about it. There is some good advice for parents in this article. Thank you to our wonderful contributors who showed great empathy in their feedback. https://www.irishtimes.com/life-and-style/health-family/parenting/how-to-talk-to-your-children-about-the-invasion-of-ukraine-1.4816178
