It was great to be attending an in person event again and our students had a wonderful day. Athletes took part in running and throwing activities, were proud to be part of our school team, made new friends and brought home an abundance of medals! We are super proud of the achievements of all our athletes.

We were delighted to learn about our own wellbeing through a variety of sensory, relaxing and calming lessons. Kate organised a great day…our learning about self regulation is going very well.

Statement from the Department of Education on Storm Eunice

Due to the extreme nature of Storm Eunice and the threat of multi-hazard weather events as confirmed by Met Éireann, the Department of Education is advising that schools in counties where Status Red wind warnings are in place and in counties where Status Orange Snow warnings are in place should not open tomorrow 18 February.

Remote teaching and learning should commence where possible, in line with schools’ remote teaching and learning plans.

All schools should keep up-to-date with the current weather warnings which are carried on all national and local news bulletins and in particular any change in the status warning for their area.

A Status Red Alert has now been issued by Met Éireann relating to severe wind for counties:
• Cork
• Kerry

Status orange snow warnings have issued for counties:
• Donegal
• Mayo
• Sligo
• Leitrim
• Roscommon

Met Éireann has advised that this is a multi-hazard event with wind and heavy snow. Storm Eunice will bring heavy sleet and snow leading to blizzard-like conditions in parts with treacherous driving conditions. The storm is expected to impact most during school commuting hours and this will make journeys to school extremely hazardous in the morning in those areas.

All other counties may open schools, subject to local conditions. Schools should have regard to the guidance on winterready.ie on safe opening.

All schools should keep up-to-date with the current weather warnings which are carried on all national and local news bulletins and in particular any change in the status warning for their area.

Over the past 6 weeks White class have had the opportunity to take part in tennis lessons at Sligo Tennis club. We have acquired new skills and had fun playing lots of games. In our last session we even got to go to the outdoor courts as the weather was kind to us.

Thank you to Sligo Sport and Recreation Partnership for your continued support.

White class have enjoyed learning new skills for our short course on animation. We have been using clay, playdough and Lego bricks and characters to create our own short stop go animation sketches. The clips have been both enjoyable to make and review.
