Today, the annual Lé Chéile Pay It Forward day takes place focusing on the theme of 'love your neighbour'. The Le Chéile Council have been encouraging all students to get involved and they've been sending in excellent pictures.
All students have been asked to do something to show love for someone else. Ideas include:
Preparing a gift for a neighbour who is alone or lonely (e.g. home bakes, home movie, book etc.), cooking/making something for a family member/singing/playing music for a neighbour at an appropriate distance of course!
We're also congratulating the 6 girls (see attached pdf), 1 from each year group, for their winning entries to the School Competition 'Inspirational Quotes For Our Times'. We all need reminders to find brightness and positivity when things are tough, so thank you girls, for lifting our spirits with your inspirational quotes! Each student has been send a €15 Just Eat Voucher. Well done girls!

We all hit speed bumps from time to time when things feel thrown off course and the struggle seems greater than usual. It's then, more than ever, that we need to remind ourselves to go searching for the positive.
Start today by writing an entry in the Gratitude section of your journal (p18). If you're grateful for the people around you, don't forget to let them know every so often! We're grateful for all the selfless work the front line staff are doing and we sent any Personal Protective Equipment we had in school to the local hospitals.
Ms Donlon, our chaplain, has put together some ideas to help us remember what's important at a time like this...take a scroll through the attached pdf to give you some ideas of things we might feel grateful for, even though things are tough.
Also remember, the OLS community is going through this together. Reach out to a teacher or a friend or a classmate if you need a little help today. We're grateful for the community connections we can draw on for support.

Update RE Trip to the Gaeltacht/Dingle
The organised trip to the Gaeltacht in September has been cancelled as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. We are disappointed not to be able to offer our students this worthwhile opportunity however our students and teachers safety must come first. The bursar will contact each parent/guardian asking for bank details in due course so we start the process of organising the refunds. Refunds of the deposits will be processed the first week in June.
Congratulations to Emily Aasen whose short play 'Stonewall' was one of two finalists selected by The Civic Theatre from their Tenderfoot writing programme. Her play will be recorded by The Civic in a video presentation in September.

A Lighthouse Lift

Our Lighthouse mentors are 5th Years who volunteer to mentor 2nd Years throughout the year. Their symbol, the lighthouse, represents a beacon of hope, guidance and strength in stormy times. Today they're giving us all a lift with their reminder that 'Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain'. Have a good day's dancing! Thanks 5th Years :)

Reminding everyone this morning to remember we're working towards big things but taking small steps together to get there.
Today's steps:
Get up, get dressed, get started.
Take each subject as it comes.
Start early so you can finish early.
Ask when you need help.
In case the good habits are getting the wobbles, check out these wellbeing reminders to keep on track for the last week before the hols.
Small steps, keep moving :)
