Hi everyone. It is hard to believe that our school building was closed 2 months yesterday and in terms of school life we have been working hard at school from home for 32 days now. Well done to all of the boys and girls for their super efforts and to the parents for working alongside you. We really appreciate your efforts and couldn’t do this without you!
For our early finisher activity today, I am uploading a competiton for all from Woodies!
Being cooped up indoors isn’t easy, so we’re giving kids a chance to let their imaginations run wild in our Little Landscapers competition. All they have to do is draw their dream garden and (when it’s safe to do so) we’ll make the winning design a reality with a garden transformation worth €5,000 and help from Woodie’s garden expert for some extra tips/advice!

Terms and conditions of the competition are as follows:
Best of luck everyone! Wouldn’t it be amazing for someone’s dream to come true from Piercestown N.S.
