ELEB9618.MOV Well done to 3rd and 4th Class!
We are so proud of our 3rd and 4th Class who worked so hard to make beautiful Christmas cards for the residents of Kilconnell Nursing Home. They also included a lovely letter in each card as well as a virtual hug . The children wanted the residents to know that we are thinking of them and to wish them all a Happy Christmas. It has been a lonely time for nursing home residents this year and we are all looking forward, with hope, to better times ahead for all. Merry Christmas!

Paired Reading 2020
We started the Paired Reading initiative in 5th/6th class this year. All children were put into pairs within their class and they both take on roles of tutor/tutee within the pair. The children work through a sequence of activities such as partner reading, checking comprehension (predictions, summaries, questions), vocabulary development and word games. As the initiative was cut short this year, we are looking forward to trying it out again next year.
