A thuismitheoirí, a chairde,
Tá súil againn go bhfuil sibh ag baint taitneamh as na laethanta saoire. Athosclóidh an scoil Dé Céadaoin 30 Lúnasa 2023 @ 8.40r.n. Tabhair faoi deara go mbeidh an scoil ag dúnadh ag 12.00 ar an Aoine 1ú Meán Fómhair le haghaidh Cruinniú Foirne. Hopefully everyone is enjoying the holidays. School reopens on WEDNESDAY August 30th. Please note that the school will close at 12pm on Friday of that week, 1st September, for a Staff Meeting.
CABHAIR AG TEASTÁIL/HELP REQUIRED
Táimid ag lorg roinnt tuismitheoirí chun an taobh amuigh den scoil a ghlanadh roimh thús na scoilbhliana nua ar an gCéadaoin seo chugainn (23/8) ó 6.30-8 i.n. Ní neart go cur le chéile!
We would appreciate it if a number of parents would be willing to lend a hand at a clean-up of the school grounds on WEDNESDAY next August 23rd from 6.30 – 8 p.m. The main tasks to cover will be (a) assembling outdoor furniture (b) rubbish collection and (c) weeding/trimming hedges etc. Many hands make light work!
Corp Oideachais/P.E.
Beidh na laethanta do Corp Oideachais socraithe nuair a fhileann na páistí ar ais ar scoil. Mar sin, is gá gnáth culaith scoile a chaitheamh ar an gCéadaoin 30ú. P.E days will be decided when the children return to school. Therefore, children should wear the school uniform on the opening day, Wednesday 30th.
LEABHARLIOSTAÍ/BOOKLISTS 2023
Tá sonraí leabharliostaí agus costais scoile eile thíos. Tuigimid go mbíonn daoine faoi bhrú ag tús na scolbhliana, ach go háirithe faoi láthair, mar sin glacfaidh an scoil le íocaíochtaí thar tréimhse má oireann sin níos fearr do thuismitheoirí.
See below for details of booklists and school costs. We fully understand that people can be under financial pressure at the start of the school year, especially at present, so the school will accept payments in instalments if required.
Tá scéim Leabhair Bunscoile do gach páiste bunscoile i bhfeidhm i mbliana.Tá na téacsleabhair scoile, na leabhair oibre agus na cóipleabhair uile maoinithe ag an rialtas anois. Mar a bhí roimhe seo, leanfaidh an scoil ag aimsiú na nearraí go léir agus ag feidhmiú scéim cíosa leabhar nuair is cuí.
