Catholic Schools Week 2021

As we continue to celebrate Catholic Schools Week let us ponder how members of the Christian faith have been challenged and how they met those challenges.
"Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which He looks compassion on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good. Yours are the hands through which He blesses the world. Yours are the hands, yours are the feet, yours are the eyes, you are His body. Christ has no body on earth but yours."
Teresa of Avila

I have been asked to share the following:
Children’s Competition launched by Into Kildare. The ‘Make a St Brigid’s Day Cross’ is inviting children to create their very own St Brigid’s Day cross from any material they may have! This could include paper straws; lollipop sticks or they can even bake a cake in the shape of a St Brigid’s Day Cross!! We just want them to show their creativity!
The competition has two categories – under 10yr and over 10yr and prizes include vouchers for Whitewater Shopping Centre and Family Passes to Lullymore Discovery Park. Entry details are available on our website: www.intokildare.ie and winning entries will feature on our website and in the Kildare Nationalist. The deadline is next Saturday 30th January.

Thanks to Ms Kelly for sharing this short video with tips of how to photograph work if submitting pictures to your teachers. It specifically talks about submitting photos of art but in fact is relevant for all work that you might be submitting photos of.

Leaving Certificate Geography

As you will have seen from recent messages on the app with updates from the DES/SEC, students can continue to work on some aspects of the Leaving Certificate exam components while learning remotely under the guidance of their teacher.
With regard to the Geography coursework Field Trip, which unfortunately had to be postponed firstly from October and now from January due to Covid restrictions, the following is important to note:
The field trip is currently booked to take place on Tuesday 23rd March. The current deadline for the Geography coursework element is April 16th which would leave 4 weeks to complete this element which should be sufficient.
In the meantime it is important that students continue to work in line with the schedule your teachers are providing.
Why not try this today!

My thanks to Ms Carty for sharing this recording of muscle relaxation and breath-work technique to de-stress. This could be used by the whole school community and the video is only about 8 minutes long - but the benefit will last much longer than that. Try it out!
