Senior Infants Easter Activities

Senior Infants Easter Activities

6/4/20-17/4/20

Dear Parents/Guardians,

I hope you and your families are all keeping well.

As it is the Easter period, I have put together some fun Easter related activities

for anyone who may want to engage with them. This Easter work is not compulsory.

It is optional. Pick and choose from it. This work is set out for a two week period

(see dates above). The website will be updated with class work again on Monday the

20th of April.

I have included some Easter scavenger clues for anyone who may be having an

Easter egg hunt. Some clues are suitable for use indoors and others for outdoors.

Again, please tell your child I was asking for them and I¡¯m looking forward to seeing

them! I hope they have an enjoyable Easter.

Any links I have provided below can be opened by right clicking on them.

If you have any queries please email me at cobrienlisronaghns@

Have a lovely Easter everyone!

Keep Safe and keep social distancing,

Kindest Regards,

Catherine O¡¯Brien ?

Listen to ¡®The Story of the Easter Bunny¡¯ on YouTube.

will do? Where do you predict the Easter Bunny lives? What was your favourite part of the

story? Why? Does this story remind you of any other Easter stories you know? Have you

made any connections with the story?

Rhyme: Practise saying the rhyme ¡®Eggs¡¯ (attached further down). Get your child to
