At Virgin Mary GNS, we love reading!! We can read ANYTHING and EVERYTHING!!
Thursday, February 25th is 'Ireland Reads Day'- a day for everyone to 'squeeze in a read'.
The teachers have very kindly agreed to give you a break from SeeSaw on this day so that you take part in this special reading event!
A message has been sent to all families explaining how to register and we expect all girls to take part part. Please go to www.irelandreads.ie All you have to do is decide how long you want to read for on February 25th and type that time in. It's VERY easy!! If all the family want to get involved, great! Just add up all your times together and put that time in the box.
You can literally read ANYTHING on the day- a book, a magazine, a newspaper....ANYTHING!! All you have to do is tell your teacher what you read!
The staff at Virgin Mary GNS love reading too. We are also taking part and have pledged (made a promise) to read for 11 hours and 30 minutes on February 25th.
We are looking forward to taking a break from our screens on February 25th and we hope you will too.

Usually at this time of year, Virgin Mary GNS is a hive of activity with learning, sports, celebrations, fun and lots and lots of laughter. At this moment, our school is quiet and still. The doors are closed, the shutters are down and all the staff are working from home.
We miss you all so much. We miss the questions that you ask and the jokes and the stories that you tell us every day.
A HUGE 'Thank you' to all the girls that responded to Ms. Cuthbert's special Art project!! Your pictures are now up on the railings around the school. Your work is bringing smiles to the faces of so many people that pass by our school each day. Your work has brought smiles to the staff who miss you all terribly.
We will all be back together soon, when it is safe . In the meantime, here is a sample of the Art that can be seen around the Virgin Mary GNS.

At Virgin Mary GNS, we understand the importance of the contributions of women to Science. Today, we celebrate these women. We also celebrate the pupils of Virgin Mary GNS who hypothesise, investigate, experiment and record during their Science lessons at our school. One day, some of you may join the list of these important female scientists.
To mark International Day of Women and Girls in Science, Uachtaran na hEireann Michael D. Higgins has released a video encouraging the young girls and women of Ireland to 'Carry your knowledge and skills with pride.'
