Dear Parents and Guardians/A Thuismitheoirí agus a Chaomhnóirí,

Child Protection Training

All Staff attended Child Protection training from the Department of Education on Monday to ensure that we are up to date with the most recent regulations.  It was a very informative session.

Clean Air

This week An Taisce are promoting Clean Air Week and a reminder to all parents to turn off their engines when parked at or near the school. While engine idling is damaging and unnecessary, especially to children’s health, it is also damaging to our pockets. Ten minutes of idling could take you 8 kilometres! Click here for six reasons to turn off your car engine when parked.

And More!

ALC Green are doing an equine therapy course in Childvision. Everyone loved getting up on horses today!
