The first round of offers for places in our school has been sent. If you have a child pre-enroled to start with us, in any class, in September 2016, please keep checking our Intake 2016 page, where we post updates about enrolments.

If you expected to receive an email from us but haven't, please don't panic. We are aware of a technical glitch that means emails to hotmail addresses are showing up in our system as sent but have not arrived to their destination. If this is the case for you, just let us know and we will re-send it or print the letter for you.

We are working on manually re-sending each one.

February is a very exciting month as we start to enrol children to join us next September!

On Monday 1st February, every family that has a child pre-enroled for September 2016 should receive an email from us, letting them know whether we can offer them a place for their child or not. If you have pre-enroled and do not hear from us, it is vitally important that you get in touch with us immediately.

​All the updates can be found on our Intake 2016 page.

On Wednesday, 20th January, at 7pm, Caitriona and our Junior Infant teachers will host an information evening for parents considering sending their child(ren) to Citywest Educate Together NS from September 2016. Please let your friends, neighbours and colleagues know so they can come along and make an informed decision about school placement for their family.

Please see below flyer and application form for the Incredible Years Parenting Programme, taking place in Killinarden on 5 February.

You may be aware that Irish classes for parents are commencing this Monday morning, but following feedback from a number of parents, it seems there may also be interest in an evening class.
If you would be interested in attending an evening class to learn/ improve your conversational Irish, please complete the form below.
Classes would take place on Tuesday evenings (time to be confirmed) and would cost €3 per week.

If you express an interest in attending these classes, we will be in touch with you to confirm whether they will go ahead.

We are thrilled to announce the commencement of Irish lessons for adults next Monday, 11th January, in the Meeting Room in the new wing of the school. Lessons cost €3 and are open to all. 
If you'd like to attend and have not already expressed an interest, please drop us a note below, so that we can ensure to have enough chairs!

Time: 8:45a.m. - 9:45a.m. every Monday
Place: Meeting Room, New Wing

Details: Relaxed lessons for beginners with an emphasis on conversational Irish. These lessons are suitable for anybody in our school community - whether you have learned Irish before or not. You will gain a basic grasp of Irish vocabulary and sentence structure. Your confidence with the language will grow, helping you support your child's learning of Irish.

​Hope to see you there!

In late 2014, a committee was formed to evaluate the treatment of Belief Systems at Citywest ETNS. The committee worked to compose a survey that could be used to gauge parent opinion in relation Belief Systems. This survey was circulated to all parents and recommendations were made based upon the findings of the survey.

These recommendations were shared with the Board of Management and have been effected for the academic year 2015/2016. They have been published on our 'Our Ethos' page.

We welcome further feedback from the school community in relation to this document, or the teaching of Belief Systems more generally. Please visit the Ethos page to read more and to share your thoughts with us.

Today we had our first Whole School Assembly of the year. We held it in the new PE hall, which was more than large enough to accommodate us all comfortably. Caitríona spoke to us briefly, before each class grouping had a chance to sing for the rest of the school.
We tried a new way of showing our appreciation after a performance - we did a sign language round of applause - this is done by waving your hands in the air rather than clapping.
​We have now finished up for the term. We look forward to seeing you all in the New Year.
