Welcome!!

Hi,

I would like to begin by welcoming you to the St Kevin's BNS 5th Class blog. Having already spent over two weeks with the pupils of 5th class, I can confidently say that I am very much looking forward to being their class teacher for the forthcoming year. If you have any concerns regarding the educational needs of your child please feel free to make an appointment to see me (outside of class hours) with our school secretary Catherine Redmond.

Warm regards,

Mr. Keogh.

Why have a School Blog??

The reasons for my use of a blog are as follows;

• It provides you the Parent/Guardian with a window into the classroom and shines light on the type of learning your child experiences.
• It is an efficient mode of communication between the class teacher and the home.
• Pupils' learning can be supported by the availability of curriculum content online. Also, areas of the curriculum that require particular attention can also be posted.
• Children get a chance to see the fruits of their education in an online setting. Also, the weekly /monthly awards will be posted.
• It is a new and exciting way to engage parents in their children's' learning.
