Jolly Phonics Fun!
We are nearly finished learning all of our Jolly Phonics sounds! Now we can practice blending our sounds together!
Jolly Phonics is a fun way to learn sounds and begin your child’s reading journey. Continue the learning at home through consistent practice. Many parents find the Jolly Phonics app very helpful and even better, it’s free!

Junior Infants make pizza!
Junior Infants have spent the month of April learning all about food. We have focused on procedural writing this month: How to Make a Pizza.
The girls really enjoyed following the steps to make the pizza and enjoyed eating it even more!
