March
Dear Parents,
Dates for your Diary:
Tuesday the 15th of March: First Penance
Thursday 17th & Friday 18th March: School closed.
Saturday the 2nd of April: Family Mass.
Friday the 13th of May: School will close at 12 noon.
Friday the 3rd of June: School closed.
Confirmation: Congratulations to all the boys and girls who received the sacrament of Confirmation on Sunday. You were all brilliant. Many thanks to Fr. Reddan and to you the parents for helping to prepare them for this important milestone in their lives.
St. Kieran’s Day: Well done to all who were able to play a part in St. Kieran’s Day. Míle buíochas in particular to those in the Parents Association who gave of their time in providing refreshments on the day. Your efforts are very much appreciated.
Cumann na mBunscol: In the coming weeks groups will be finalised by the organising committee. From now on, any child who is interested in going to games must have their gear in and be ready to go down on the field at lunch time. Also four parents are leading in the organisation of training outside of school. We very much appreciate them giving their time to work with the boys and girls. This training will take place every Wednesday from 4.45pm to 5.45pm on the school grounds beginning tomorrow, Wednesday the 9th of March. Children from third class up are invited to come along. The only thing we ask is if your child is not attending on a particular day, that your child would let me know in the school. With all that is going on, it is fully understandable that you can’t get to everything. From our perspective we are simply trying to provide children with another opportunity to train, but there is no problem should your children not be able to make it. As I said, just simply get them to let me know in the school, so as those who are kindly volunteering can plan for the numbers they will have.
As soon as groups are finalised and a schedule of matches is made available, I will relay this to you.
School Closures: School will be closed on Friday the 3rd of June. As we had a planned closure on the 18th of March, (the national holiday to commemorate all those who lost their lives during the pandemic) the department advised us to pick another day in the calendar to close and it was decided that we will close on the Friday the 3rd of June.
School will also close at 12noon on Friday the 13th of May to allow for school in-service training.
Covid 19: With most restrictions almost lifted at this stage, we simply ask you to be sensible. If your child possesses symptoms, please test him/her. Your co-operation on all matters Covid is much appreciated.
Review and Ratification of Policies: An annual Child Protection review has been carried out by the Board of Management at a recent meeting. Also policies regarding the operation of our ASD class and supporting a sustainable environment have been put in place by the Board.
Crumlin Hospital Fundraiser: We will be holding a Casual Day on Friday the 8th of April (before the Easter break) to raise funds for Crumlin’s Children Hospital. We will furnish you with further details regarding this, closer to the time.
