Good afternoon everyone and welcome back to the second half of Term 2. Thank you for your recent feedback in the February survey.
Consequently, from tomorrow TUESDAY, 23rd February, we are going to amend our school day timetable while we are in remote school.
We hope that these changes will give our students the important time needed for more regular screen breaks and more frequent fresh air and activity breaks.
What do these changes mean? Every class is MAX 50 minutes.
10 minute break (minimum) between each class
25 minute morning break
60 minutes Lunch hour
Class 1: 8.45am-9.35 (10 minute break before Class 2)
Class 2: 9.45am-10.35
Break: 10.35am-11.00 (25 minutes- fresh air and screen time break)
Class 3: 11.00am-11.50 (10 minute break before Class 4)
Class 4: 12.00pm-12.50
Lunch hour 12.50pm- 1.50pm (one hour for fresh air and screen time break)
Class 5: 1.50pm-2.40pm (10 minute break before Class 6)
Class 6: 2.50pm -3.40pm
For LIVE classes: Microphones – All students' microphones must be on and working for live classes. If there are any issues at all please contact reception@holyfamily.ie
Cameras- will now be switched on as the norm for live classes. This is at the subject teacher's discretion. Students who have any technical issues with cameras for camera-on classes need to keep in contact with the subject teacher.
We hope that this improves our students' experience of remote school.
A reminder that if any student needs additional support, our school counsellors are available and can be contacted via reception@holyfamily.ie
