Dear Parents and Guardians,

Here is a list of work for Second Class during the directed school closure from the Department of Education and Skills. This is a recommended and optional list of work, set to assist your child in keeping up to date with their academic progress and daily educational structure. Please keep an eye on the school website www.stkevinsgns.com and turn on notifications on the Aladdin Connect application for up to date information from the school. We will also post a recommended list of educational games and websites for Second Class on the school website under the Second Class tab tomorrow.

Looking forward to seeing everyone back in school at the end of March

Kind regards,

Ailbhe Forde & Laura McDonnell
