Participants are invited to take part in an infant teacher support group session on Tuesday October 5th at 3p.m. It is envisioned this session will be an environment which will allow those who are new to teaching the infant classes (Junior and Senior Infants) or those with previous experience to come together to gain new ideas, share effective methodologies as well as practical tips and advice and discuss any concerns or struggles they may have. The overall aim of this session is to better inform all of our practices and best support the young learners in our care.

This session is suitable for teachers of Junior and Senior Infants

As this is a support group session rather than a presentation it is vital participants are willing to turn on the cameras and microphones.

Ciorcal Comhrá do Mhúinteoirí Bunscoile ag tosú 15ú Meán Fómhair 7p.m. agus ag leanúint ar aghaidh gach coicís.
