A Thuismitheoirí / Chaomhnóirí,
Re.: Approaching the end of year
As we approach the end of the school year, I wish to mention a couple of things:
- Thank you: A huge thank you to all of you for the support you have given to myself and to the staff. It’s been a very strange year that saw us finally leave our prefabs, move into our new school and then close from 12th March 2020. We’ve always had a lovely school and we will continue to do so long into the future. Our school is always as good as your support and help.
- Payment for Extra Curricular Activities: Thank you to all who have paid for the extra-curricular activities that children have taken part in since last September. The school must pay the dancing, Italian, tennis and swimming teachers and therefore payment is needed from everybody in classes that completed these activities before lockdown.
- School Reports: These can be collected at the school by parents (or by childminders with written permission from parents) on Monday from 8.40. Any report not collected will be posted out after 3.00 on Tuesday.
- Books for next year: Books can be paid for on Monday & Tuesday of next week……see separate note below for more information.
- School Books: Please check school bags and around the house for any school books that your child may have e.g. text books, readers, CAPER or library books. If you do find any books belonging to our book rental scheme, please return them to the school on Monday /Tuesday to ensure that we don’t need to buy books needlessly.
- Slán le Rang 6: After 8 years, our current 6th class students will be saying their goodbyes at the end of this school year. As restrictions are still in place we are unable to have a proper celebration for them at this time but a provisional date of 28th August has been set for their official school graduation. We congratulate this wonderful class on all that they have achieved and we wish them all the best in their future as they enter secondary schools. Rang 6, please don’t be a stranger. Make sure you come and visit us and we look forward to celebrating your graduation with you on August 28th.
- Mayfield Library: Please ensure that all books from the library have been returned to avoid having to pay fines.
- School Holidays: School reopens on Thursday 27th August at 8:50 am
We wish you all a pleasant summer holiday. Múinteoir Deaglán
