Dear Parent / Guardian / Colleague / Board Member,
Water Update.
The Boil Water Notice continues at our school.
P.A. AGM
Congratulations to the officer board of Aoife Fenlon McCarthy, Caroline Bourke and Kathryn Tulk-Williams who were returned at Monday night’s AGM. Katie Ryan was elected as vice Chairperson. A very good account of last year’s activities was given and a programme of work decided upon for the year ahead. We thank the P.A. for its assistance towards our school and wish them well in the year ahead.
SNA Day.
Thursday 26th September marked the first ever Special Needs Assistant Appreciation Day. We have two SNA’s working at our school; Patsy & Kay. We thank them for the work they do for your children / our pupils and the school in general.
Hot School Meals.
An amount of work has been carried out on this project during September. We are currently in the Electronic Tendering stage.
Swimming.
Swimming today was cancelled by Clonmel pool due to a mechanical breakdown issue on site. An extra week will be added to the schedule. They will keep us posted on the repair works. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Money is being collected for Block B i.e. Rg 5/6.
Enrolment.
Next Tuesday, October 1st will mark the opening of enrolment for the 2025/’26 school year. Families can contact the school for an initial application form (Form 1) from this date. We hope to do a visible campaign to entice as many families as possible to enroll their children at our school in 2025 and beyond. Your input and assistance would be greatly appreciated in spreading the word and conveying any ideas you may have.
Tables & Chairs.
We have a selection of old school tables and chairs available, ranging in size from junior infants to 4th class. They’re still in good condition and perfect for anyone who could use them! Looking to give them away for free to a good home. If you’re interested or know someone who might be, just contact Rose in the school. 052 6136349.
Is mise,
Michael J. O’Ryan – Principal.
