Important Notice: Access to school site!

28/8/2012

 
Picture
Please note that, while our school building and surrounding areas will be ready and safe for Monday morning, there is ongoing building work around the school site which will prevent us using the entrance opposite the LUAS stop. Access will be at the rear of the site only while these works continue.Directions are as follows: Standing at the LUAS stop, facing the school site, turn right and continue to the T-junction. Turn left at the T. Take the next turn left, just before you would go under the pedestrian bridge. This will bring you onto an access road which has housing along your right and fencing along your left. Follow the road and turn left into the school car park just after the slight bend in the road.




See you there on Monday morning!

Moloney Coaches provide a school bus service in the Citywest area and would be happy to include pupils from Citywest ETNS on their school-bus run, which travels three times every day, in order to facilitate arrival at school and going home for both Infant classes and more senior classes.

If you would like to find out more, please go to www.moloneycoaches.com and contact Tony, who will fill you in on the service he provides.

Countdown - less than 2 weeks to go!

21/8/2012

 
With less than two weeks to go until Citywest Educate Together NS opens its doors, we prepare to make history as the very first school to open in Citywest!

We are extremely busy getting everything ready. The builders are working non-stop on our building. Our volunteers are collecting donations. Our parents and children are clearing their playrooms, getting school-bags ready and counting the days until 3rd September 2012! And we are ordering all supplies, from chairs and desks to books and pencils, toilet paper and soap to  teabags and mugs, whiteboards and displays to counting cubes and music CDs! It's all go!

Want to meet other Citywest ETNS families?

17/8/2012

 
We had a lovely Family day back in June when we all got to meet up and the children got to meet each other. There are more than half of our pupils who weren't there, however, either because they couldn't make it or because they hadn't enrolled by then.

Some of these pupils and their families would love to meet their classmates before school starts so they can know another face when they come in on 3rd September!

If you would like to arrange a play-date with another family, you can put a post on our Facebook page asking other families to Message you with contact details.

We look forward to meeting everyone at 8.30am on Monday 3rd September!

Thanks for all the generous donations!

15/8/2012

 
Wow! You are all so generous! The donations are flying in now and mingling nicely with the classroom requisites we are beginning to purchase for September! 

So far we have been gifted:
- a fridge-freezer
- 3 PCs
- a laptop
- 20 ring-binders
- a volleyball net and volleyballs
- complete jigsaws
- good-as-new children's books
- home corner toys such as a shop and dress-up clothes
- 2 jars of soap
- 6 computer tables
- time
- 100 euro to be spent on ethical education library books for the Junior Infant classroom
- storage space (to store these gifts until 1st September!)
- a shelving unit

As you can see, they range from small to big and most were items being replaced in their previous homes. Is there anything you have that would like to be re-homed?! We promise to take good care of it! Have a look at our wish-list and let us know if there's anything you can offer. 

Many thanks to all our supporters.
