School Tours
Our annual school tours will take place in Term 3. The information note can be downloaded on our "Newsletters & Downloads" page. A deposit of €15 per child to be paid before 19th April. Balance of tour money to be paid before 24th May 2024.
Funding
As there are no longer Covid grants for cleaning and resources in schools, we have reverted back to using towels in the classrooms, staffroom and all toilets. These towels will be changed on a daily basis in the school. Children can bring in their own hand towels in zip locked bags if they wish.

Attendance
We would appreciate it if the absence slips were used to explain any recent absences. These must be returned to the class teacher when the child returns to school. The Education Welfare Act 2000 places a legal duty on parents to notify the school about a child's absence from school. If you require absence slips, please let us know.
Appointments with teachers
If you wish to discuss any aspect of your child's progress or issues in school with the Class Teacher, please telephone or email our school secretary, to arrange a suitable time. We regret that teachers cannot accommodate these discussions, during the arrival or dismissal times for pupils. Pre-arranged appointments by phone or face-to-face only.
