Are you bored already! here are some interesting things to try from home while we are all physically distancing from each other.
Join our virtual St Patrick’s Day Parade over on Twitter. As all parades are canceled, lets try to connect in a safe way and have some fun online. Dress up, make St Patrick’s day arts and crafts, play a tune, sing a song, say a poem, dress your dog in a silly costume, dance a jig or a reel, make some green buns or cookies, whatever you like. Then post a picture or video to Glinsk_NS on twitter. Don’t forget the hashtag #GlinskvirtualStPatricksParade. You don’t have to be a pupil in Glinsk NS to take part. If you can’t access twitter, send to glinskschool@gmail.com. There may be prizes!
