Dear parents and students,
Pupils in Junior Infants to Second Class have now returned to school at Radharc na Mara. It's great to have some of our school community back. We are actively making plans for the return of the rest of the school on Monday March 15th. From Monday March 8th until Friday March 12th you have a one week block of distance learning left.
Teachers will be uploading the plans for this last week of work on Friday. Teachers will be in touch with parents next week to inform them on the return to school guidelines. Please ensure you make contact with teachers before returning to school on Mon, 15th. All work sent home to you and all books must be returned on Monday the 15th.
We are all really looking forward to getting back to school and getting a sense of normality about the place. Please be extra careful and vigilant over the coming days. If you feel in any was ill, then please do not attend school.
Kind Regards
Keith Joyce
Deputy Principal
Dear Parents
During this current lockdown the teachers have arranged work for the children to do each day. We will post enough work for each child for two weeks at a time. I will notify you by text each time new work has been arranged for the children.
Some teachers are preparing learning packs that are to be collected from the school every two weeks. The teachers will contact you if a learning pack is to be collected for your child.
The next block of work that is prepared by the teachers is from Monday 25th January to Friday 5th February. Please click on the links below to see what work the teachers have prepared for your class
If you have any school related queries during this lockdown please email info@mervueprimary.ie
If anyone needs to contact Orla, our Home School Community Liaison Teacher they can do so at 087195

Hello to all our Radharc na Mara community,
We are in our 3rd fortnightly block of learning and the weeks are flying by. Already we are seeing signs of Spring as the daffodils push their heads up in our gardens. Spring is a new beginning and hopefully we are witnessing a new beginning in the fight against the virus as the case numbers are dropping.
I know many of you are now engaging with your teachers' over Zoom and See-Saw, which is a great way to keep in touch with your learning. Please continue your best efforts using these methods and remember to stay in touch at least once a week with your teacher by email, or when they call your parents' mobile.
Next week is very important week for us as a Catholic school. Lent begins on Ash Wednesday the 17th of February . You will of course have had your pancakes 🥞 on Shrove Tuesday, but the next day is the beginning of an important time for Christians throughout the world. Use https://www.scoilnet.ie/search/?q=Lent to gather more information about the sacrifices we make before the coming of Easter. This Sunday (February 14th) is the day of love when we remember Saint Valentine ♥ who died a Christian martyr in Rome in the 3rd century. The Britannica online world book is a fabulous source of information about this very brave man (www.britannica.com/biography/Saint-Valentine) .
As a teacher I am always excited by new learning methods so I am setting you a small task for the next fortnight.......If anybody uses a really good educational site then please send it on to my email address. We are going to compile a list of new websites for you to explore during your lockdown experience. If you find a new website, not already listed, then please send it to me for inclusion in the updated list of links below.
