Good times suggestions/ideas
Whenever you are all at home and wish you could do something, go somewhere, treat yourselves, see family, visit a new place or invite people to visit you, write it down on a post-it and place it into a jar. When all this is over it can be a bucket list of things you can all do together as a family. Just work your way through the jar and everyone will be more grateful than ever for the little and lovely things in our lives.
Until then sit back and enjoy watching the jar fill up with magical things to look forward to!

Message from Mrs Archibald
Parent information:
Rosemary from AAIS (Autism Advisory & Intervention Service) was in touch with me this morning and gave me a link which is useful for staff and parents during this time and can hopefully point parents in the right direction for home support during this time. Below is the link which she gave me, if you could also share it on seesaw to your parents that would be great.

If your child would like to avail of this service please contact Mrs Archibald on the school telephone number or school email address.
The Snug Breakfast Challenge is ongoing this week.
Any other keen pupils and staff (Jill) wanting to make breakfast, with supervision please give it a try and forward me any photos to share on The Snug webpage.
The second part of the challenge was to prepare breakfast for someone. This would be a brilliant life skill and also a lovely act of kindness for someone else at this time.
Happy eating :)
