School-Home Communication

Most home-school communication for our school is electronic - via our website, via e-mail and via text. 

Please make sure to check our website and your e-mail regularly so that you keep up-to-date. Once you have read an e-mail from us, please click to acknowledge receipt so that we know you have received it.

While we aim to reduce the number of paper notes sent home, there will be times when it is necessary. If you think you may have missed a note, please check with Nicola, our school secretary, either in person or via e-mail.

It is your responsibility to make sure that we have up-to-date contact details for you. Please use the button below to let us know if any details have changed.

14th August 2020: Email to all families other than Junior Infants and special classes: Staggering the start of the new school year

14/8/2020

Hello again.


Staggered start of school year
Please see results of our first survey on our school website. It is clear that our community is in broad agreement with this proposal and so we will go ahead with it.
We aim to let you know on Monday 24th August which day your child(ren) will attend - Thursday 27th or Friday 28th August.
We look forward to seeing the children on those days and to spending the day practicing new procedures with them as well as reconnecting and getting down to work.
To be clear, the teachers will teach the same content on both days and so children will not miss any content.


Further surveys
We have already received 117 responses to the parent survey and 87 responses to the pupil survey. Thank you so much for taking the time to do that. If you haven't already taken the time to go through them, please do so over the weekend.


Two weeks to go - time to increase measures in our community
With two weeks to go to the start of the school year, NOW is the time for everyone in our community to return to living very carefully. Please protect everyone in our community by doing your part.


Response Plan
We have been working all week and will continue over the weekend in preparing our Response Plan for returning to school.
Our Board of Management will meet on Monday to consider it and to make some crucial decisions.
I will write to you on Tuesday to share a copy of that Response Plan and will host Zoom meetings next week to talk through it.
I will send Zoom details later today.


Returning from outside Ireland?
Some of our families have been asking about returning to school following travel abroad. Government guidance for schools is as follows:
"As per HSE current guidelines, if a person arrives into the State from a location not on the 'green list', the public health advice is that you need to restrict your movements for 14 days. 
Please check the Covid 19 Green List on gov.ie. Anyone arriving into Ireland from these locations will not have to restrict their movements."


Wishing you a great weekend,
Caitriona.
