Scoil na Mara means school by the sea. Checkout the Scoil na Mara activity on Seesaw to go on a virtual school tour to the Seaside shore. There are three separate tours. After each tour you might like to try some of the following activities.
Last week Belgrove Senior Girls celebrated Activity and Sports week during Distance Learning finishing up with a special Sports Day on Friday last 5th June.
Our 3rd class girls really embrace the occasion. Check out these photos of the girls having fun at home and also the wonderful drawings the girls produced during Activity and Sports week.
It sure looked like lots of fun 😀
Even though we call our school Belgrove, it is named after St John the Baptist. In Irish, we call our school Scoil Eoin Báiste. St John the Baptist is also the name given to the church on the seafront
The 24th June is the feast day of St John the Baptist, when we think especially of him and his life.

Hi girls,
We are coming towards the end of the school year. I must congratulate you and your parents on the marvelous work you are doing at home. Here is the plan of work for this week. Please focus on the Maths, Irish & English. I would ask you all to please do the PAWS (Primary Aquatic Water Safety) programme because I think it is really important to know how to stay safe around water this summer.
There are lots of other interesting activities for you if you wish to try them including lots about Life in the 1950s. Do what works for you and your family. I look forward to hearing from you all on Seesaw. Can everyone please post me some of your work during the week. Also if you have any pictures or photos from Activity and Sports week, which you haven’t already sent me, please do so as I will make a Class Sports blog for you.
Slán,
Mrs Brodie 😀
