Nuachtlitir Cairde – Deire Fómhair/October 2024

Ba mhaith linn roinnt eolais a thabhairt daoibh faoi CAIRDE, Cumann na dTuismitheoirí na Gaelscoile. Tá gach tuismitheoir/caomhnóir sa scoil ina b(h)all de CAIRDE. Toghtar príomhchoiste agus ionadaithe ranga ag tús na scoilbhliana a chomhoibríonn le Mícheál agus an Bord Bainistíochta ó thaobh thiomsú airgid agus araile. Bíonn cruinniú neamhfhoirmiúil ag Cairde uair amháin in aghaidh na míosa a mhaireann uair ar a mhéad. Ná ceap gurb é aidhm na gcruinnithe jabanna a dháileadh ar dhaoine! Cuirfear fáilte roimh gach tuismitheoir agus iarraimid oraibh teacht ó am go chéile chun braon tae a ól, bualadh le tuismitheoirí eile agus léargas a fháil ar chúrsaí a bhaineann le heispéireas scoile do pháiste féin. Féach an bhileog seole haghaidh a thuilleadh eolais: Cairde 2024.
Faoi láthair, seo na tuismitheoirí atá ag feidhmiú i rólanna: Cathaoirleach: Zara Kelly, Leas-Chathaoirleach: Bríd O’Connor, Rúnaí: Caoimhe Tierney, Rúnaí Cúnta: Edel Sheerin, Cisteoir: Yvonne Shields, Cisteoir Cúnta: Síle McGrath agus OCP: Emma Hamilton. Ionadaithe Ranga: Lorraine Conlon, Martha Doyle, Olivia McFadden, Clodagh McNulty agus Nigel Rossiter. Ba mhaith linn cur le seo, ach go háirithe le tuismitheoirí ó na ranganna nua Naíonáin.
We’d like to take this opportunity to give you some information on CAIRDE, the Gaelscoil’s parent association. Every parent/guardian is automatically a member of CAIRDE. At the start of every school year, a core committee and class reps are elected who work with Mícheál and the Board of Management to organise fundraising and social events etc. CAIRDE holds an informal meeting about once a month, which lasts an hour at most. You will not be handed a job at the meeting so please don’t let that put you off coming! Everyone is welcome and we would ask you to come at least once to have a cuppa, chat with other parents, and get some insight into the issues that directly affect your child. Please see this leaflet for more information: Cairde 2024.
Currently, these parents have taken the following roles: Chair: Zara Kelly, Vice-Chair: Bríd O’Connor, Secretary: Caoimhe Tierney, Assistant Secretary: Edel Sheerin, Treasurer: Yvonne Shields, Assistant Treasurer:  Síle McGrath and PRO: Emma Hamilton. Class Reps: Lorraine Conlon, Martha Doyle, Olivia McFadden, Clodagh McNulty and Nigel Rossiter. We would like to add to this list, especially with parents from the new Infant classes. Please let us know if you would be willing to help, whatever the class your child is in. GRMA!
