The children in the Senior Room had great fun performing An Fear Sinséir (The Gingerbread Man) as part of our Seachtaine na Gaeilge celebrations.
Procedural Writing – Brownies
The children have been learning about the Procedural Writing genre. Procedural Writing is a specific form of writing that provides instructions on the procedure necessary to accomplish a goal. This week the children wrote step by step recipes for baking brownies. As Togher N.S. has a “hands on – minds on” philosophy obviously the children had to explore the procedure involved in making and enjoying tasty brownies.
Attendance Certificates
Roger and Lisa from the S.C.P. called this week to give the children their Attendance Certificates and prizes. Encouraging regular school attendance is one of the most powerful ways to prepare a child for success—both in school and in life. School attendance is important to support children’s achievement, wellbeing, and wider development and regular engaged school attendance is a strong predictor of successful educational outcomes.
