Dear Parents and Guardians / A Thuismitheoirí agus a Chaomhnóirí,

New School

We are delighted to see that the builders have made great progress already, trees and bushes have been cleared and the foundations started.

Parent Teacher Meetings will be held on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 10th, 11th and 12th  November 2015.  The school will close at 2.15pm on those days and at 1.15pm for Junior and Senior Infants.

The Annual Meeting of the school Board of Management with the parent body will be held on Wednesday 18th November at 7pm.  This isa very important meeting as parent representatives for our new Board of Management will be elected on the night.  A mother of a pupil in the school and a father of a pupil in the school will be the parent reps for the next 4 years.  Do come along and support your school by attending this meeting.

The PTA will have their AGM on the same night, Wednesday 18th November at 8pm approx.

Parents in yard

We would be grateful if all parents/minders collecting children at 1.30pm would be mindful that there are other classes in progress until 2.30pm and that the yard is sometimes needed at this time.

Value for the Month

We have chosen Empathy as our value for the month of November.

 Thursday Letter

You are free to opt out of receiving it by email and if you would like a hard copy of the Thursday letter, please let your child’s teacher know.
