Exciting 21 days ahead!
Great excitement in Junior & Senior Infants today. When we arrived to school there was an incubator in our classroom with 8 eggs inside. We can't wait to observe these eggs over the next 3 weeks. Hopefully we will have baby chicks for Easter. Thank you to Ms. Whitehead for trusting us with this very important work.

Farm Safety Ambassadors
We received our pennant today for all of the wonderful farm safety work that our school has engaged with this term. We have received the first one for Animal Safety and Wellbeing from AgriKids. We hope to earn more pennants in the future towards eventually earning an overall Farm Safety Flag for our school. Well done to everyone for all of their dedication to farm safety in our school community! Keep up the great work! 👏 🐑 🐄
