National school have a class specific email address for work to be returned to and it’s corrected and feeedback given. We’d be happy to finish out the school year working like this.

We will still need in excess of 25k housing units every year and I'm wondering if the Government that's coming in will be looking at a huge investment in building social housing, some of it on lands bought under the proposed capped prices, to kick start the economy. Some apartments and a lot of estates all over Dublin, with a few dozen schemes thrown out to the rest of the country. Killing 3 birds with one stone, boosting the economy, providing housing and reducing the housing lists.

Pay rises are in low single digits per year, if any. Lots of jobs, but only the massive pay is in the big tech companies operating in Dublin. And if ya think immigrants for the most part are paying extortionate rent your delusional. If they are, they are packed 2/3 to a room to cover it.

For their well being, I wanted to send care packages to students that wanted them to include simple seeds. Get them to plant a small garden and photo as they go. But my principal didn’t want to do it. My old ag science teacher used to do it about 20 years ago and it was great. I have just persuaded her to let me order microbit kits for the fifth years to give them a chance to learn a bit about programming. They can be used in remote controls so it would help for next years projects also. To shake things up for my 5yo, I bought a simple chemistry kit and an electronics kit online. We made a simple radio yesterday and she was delighted with it.

We are a country school with lads at home, normally have 3hours of contact time in a subject and one teacher gave 12hours of theory work. In a practical subject. I still think they should have been asked to research the design and contents of an insect hotel, design, make and photograph and a bit of theory also. I only imagine the stress parents are under- we are lucky out to eldest is in junior infants and my Australian wife can help with most of the work and I’ve enough Irish to help out a bit. We started a nature scrap book. Pressing a few flowers and taking photos of wildlife when we see it.
