A special school assembly

2/10/2020

 
We had a special assembly this morning with two big events:
  1. Junior Infants joined us at assembly for the first time ever
  2. Our newly-elected Student Council was announced
It was really lovely to have (almost!) the whole school at assembly at last and it went so smoothly. No technical issues hampered us today and we are all getting better at knowing what to do.

We are just missing Orla's class, our early intervention class, from assembly now. Even though they are not ready for assembly yet, they still got nominated for the Golden Book! Here is their nomination: "Orla's class are doing a super job at walking safely into the school and to their classroom each morning, and walking safely back out at home time!" Well done to you all!

We are very much looking forward to working with our new Student Council as they represent our student body in the running of the school. Elected members are:
  • 1st class - Oisin and Teddy
  • 2nd class - Alex and Alexa
  • 3rd class - Grace and Holly
  • 4th class - Alison and Maja
  • 5th class - Achyut and Aiden
Congratulations to all on your election.

We had some nominations for the Golden Book for children in Junior Infants - can you believe it?! Their first assembly and already in the Golden Book. Wow!

  • Rosie for leading the whole class really safely when we travel around the school and remembering where to stand. Because she stands in the right place, other pod leaders know where to stand.
  • Jake for helping Linda clean the tables in the classroom when everyone had left
  • Clara showed kindness this week in Junior Infants by leading our class out in line so well and keeping us all safe as she guided us to where we needed to go. She listened to the teacher and made sure all of her pod were following her as pod leader.
  • Jack was so helpful. He helped organise the wellies. Jack stood all the wellies that had fallen over up. Making our class safe for everyone. 
  • Ruth Mc's whole class for being so kind and quiet walking past 5th Class classrooms this week!

  • Shane for showing kindness and respect in class and for doing fabulous Home Learning this week!
  • Cillian for fixing the chains on the yard before school when they had been knocked over
  • William gave his classmate a very kind compliment on her work.
  • The Marvellous Matildas table group for being so kind, welcoming and helpful to a new child in their class.

  • Millie and Holly helped 2 people in their class to resolve an issue they were having in their friendship.

  • Timur shows kindness to his teacher and classmates by greeting them with a big hello each morning.
  • Lake shows kindness to his teacher by moving his chair so that his teacher can get by safely. 
  • Manu stepped aside and let Sarah OT through the gate on yard without her having to ask! Manu was so kind to Sarah who was going on her break.
  • Karlene, Ana-Irina, Conor and Rebecca saw that the yard barriers were moved so they moved them back into place without being asked, so that the yard would be ready for the next year group.
  • Piotr and Mekhael for being always kind to everyone at their pod
  • Milena for helping a friend carry the pod's books to the press
  • Racibor: When someone's water bottle spilled on the floor, Racibor kindly offered to help clean it up.
