We are looking forward to welcoming all pupils back next Wednesday September 1st. All pupils will arrive for the time of 9am to the yard and teachers will bring them safely to class in their pods and class groupings.Please see the following videos according to their relevance to your child(ren).

     We remind you that all adults are required to wear a mask on school grounds. If you do not wish to wear a mask please bring your child to the school gate and leave. Please do not congregate at or near school during drop off and collection times. Pupils are not obliged to wear a mask but they can if you wish them to.

Communication with the school must take place by phone.  If you wish to speak to a teacher please make an appointment with the teacher via the school office.

  The school policy in relation to children with symptoms of COVID-19 is that you must not send children to school if they are:

• close contacts of a person with COVID-19
• are awaiting a test
• are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19
• if they live with someone who has symptoms of the virus
• if they have travelled outside of Ireland ( to see latest Govt. advice – click here )

We are confident that together we can keep pupils safe and learning happily together. Your support is very much appreciated.

Best wishes

Elaine
