The impact of the lockdown on children and young people has not just been academic but also emotional. A lot of parents are extremely concerned about the anxiety that their children are exhibiting during this time. As a result, GSAP commissioned Máire Dunne and Resilio to create online videos to assist parents, on their children’s return to school.

There are 4 short videos and they will help parents with strategies and techniques, that will help their children cope.

Topics for each Week:

1. Where the Story Began
2. Understanding our Emotions
3. Adapting to the New Norm
4. Top Tips and Support Below is the video for Week 1

The P1, 2 & 3 children will perform their Christmas Plays on Wednesday 11th December.

Thank you to everyone who came along to our Rickety Wheel and Craft Fair and made it the HUGE success that it was!!!
