A new website – www.helpmykidlearn.ie – for parents and guardians – gives ideas for activities that parents can do with their children to improve their child’s speaking, reading, writing and maths skills. www.helpmykidlearn.ie mixes the old with the new – from card games and hopscotch that help practice maths, to e-books that can be read out to the child and “Apps” you can download to a smart phone. Information is broken down into 5 age groups: 0-2 years, 3-4 years, 5-7 years, 8-9 years and 10-12 years. Activities are organised into 5 main areas: Talk, Play, Read, Write and Count. There are links to other websites, and audio and video content. This website was developed as part of the Department of Education’s National Strategy to Improve Literacy and Numeracy among Children and Young people.

The excitement was up to the sky and back today for our annual Patrick Curtin Tournament 🏆 Last week we had the group stages and unfortunately the orange and jersey teams were knocked out. Today was a fine display of football, with two semi final games firstly, the red team versus the yellow team and then the blue team versus non-bibs team.
All teams fought hard but it was meant to be for the yellow 🟡 and blue 🔵 team to meet in the final. It was a super entertaining final with lots of goals. In the finish the blue team pulled away and took the win. Their captain Mark was proud to lift the trophy. Thank you so much to the club for the field, Eileen, Evelyn and family for coming and making the presentation, to Conor for reffing and to the parents for supporting us on the day. The players were outstanding, very disciplined, encouraging and conscious of younger players. Cadán took the "Sportsmanship Award" for his brilliant attitude. He quietly went about his business, encouraging his team and played brilliant football also.
Ah thank you so much to Lee Strand and to all our great community for dropping in milk tokens for this competition 👏🏼 This money will be put to great use!
