We remember Deirdre Jacob from Newbridge. Co. Kildare who is missing 23 years today the 28th July.
Our thoughts and prayers are especially with Deirdre's family and friends at this very sad time #HelpBringThemHome
Sixteen years ago on this very day, the 1st of July, something momentous happened. Something amazing. Something that changed Naas forever.
(That's 2005 if you don't want to do the maths.)
@barkerandjones Ooh ooh!! I know this one!! As far as I make it out, only the amazing manager Kate and the incredible kids book whizz Aoife (seriously, she is the most awesome kids book professor - just go test her skills if you don’t believe me!!) have both been there full time since the start!
A great snapshot of life at @GMITLetterfrack - a few changes since my happy days there. Fantastic to see so many female students featuring in the video too. Well done all! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@CatrionaGolden @AodhanORiordain Have *some* people forgotten that teachers are not refusing to teach & staff are not refusing to work? ALL of us would prefer to be in school building sharing our days with our students & colleagues instead of just screen versions of them. But only if it is SAFE for THEM & us.
Teaching or learning from home and not got access to a green screen? Create a blank slide in Keynote, AirPlay to a TV, and you’ve got an instant green screen! ✅ #AppleEDUchat
V well said. The virus is the reason that staff & students are not in school buildings & the reason that teachers are working so, so hard from home - many while helping own children with school work & caring for family & while trying to upskill for the benefit of their students.
Labour TD @AodhanORiordain says "every time the minister gets an opportunity ... to speak about this issue she only makes things worse". He says it's clear Minister for Education @NormaFoleyTD1 has lost control of the situation with regards to special needs education
This is not ‘home schooling’. Home schooling is a conscious decision made by some parents having researched that option. This is emergency education, during lockdown, while surviving a pandemic! So, let’s lower our expectations of ourselves a little. #homeschooling#lockdown
Picked up today in @Aldi_Ireland a handy #remotelearning tool - turns any phone into visualiser. Articulated phone clamp with USB powered LED. LED hue and brightness is adjustable and it clamps to a desk. #edchatie. Great for worked solutions etc.
