Homework suggestions for the coming fortnight can be accessed here. As mentioned in the last fortnight’s work, reading to and with children and daily exercise should be prioritised.

Once again, children and parents are to be congratulated on your wonderful work. We love seeing how busy you are each day learning in so many different ways. Remember that teachers are contactable  through their class emails or Seesaw. The office email ratheniskans@eircom.net continues to be available for any school- related queries.

Well done to all children and families across the school for all the fabulous and creative work presented over the last fortnight . It has been delightful for all staff to see how creative and enthusiastic the response to using Seesaw has been. Seesaw is now up and running across the school . Teachers have prepared work for the next fortnight and you can access it below. Once again parents are reminded to be judicious in their approach to work . Reading to and with children and daily exercise should be prioritised as part of your child’s daily routine. Wishing all continued good health.
