June 2019 Newsletter
Dear Parents,
End of year preparations
Just to advise you that the school reports will be sent home in the coming weeks, by post. If you have any
concerns regarding these reports, please make an appointment to discuss with the class teacher.
In line with our Green School ethos, Booklists will be uploaded to our School Website in the coming weeks and will
be available to download from the ‘Parents & Guardians’ page.
As per Dept. of Education recommendations, we are in the process of moving from cash to online payments. We
feel from a security perspective this is a positive move and from feedback in other schools parents seem to find it
a more convenient way to pay for school fees, tours, swimming etc. This online payment service will be linked
directly to the student’s account to ensure payments are allocated to the correct student. Further details will be
issued shortly.
Please be advised that homework journals and books under the book rental scheme will not be issued in
September until fees are paid in full. Should the need arise, I would ask parents under financial pressure to
contact us, in confidence, so that a payment plan can be put in place.
Our classes for the next school year are as follows:-
Class: Teacher:
Junior Infants Joanne Kennedy
Senior Infants Maeve O’Connor (Substitute teacher for maternity cover will be appointed).
1st & 2nd Class New Appointment
3rd & 4th Class Karen Reilly
Special Education Teacher Humphrey Murphy
Maeve will be commencing her leave on Friday 14th June. A substitute teacher will be teaching the Junior & Senior
infants for the last fortnight of term.
Summer Stars at Your Library
Meath County Library Service will run the Summer Stars Reading Programme for
children in all library branches during the summer holidays from 15th June to the end
of August. This is a free programme and we would encourage children to take part, as
research shows that children who read over the summer maintain their reading levels
and return to school more prepared for the new school year.
Further information is available at: https://www.librariesireland.ie/services/right-to-read/summer-stars
Key Dates this term:
Wed 26th June New Junior Infants Class Visit at 1.15pm.
Fri 28th June School closes at 12.00 for Summer Break.
Car Park
I am very concerned about the dangerous driving and
reckless parking, which I have observed in the school
carpark. I would ask all drivers in the carpark to slow
down and be mindful that the rules of the road still apply
in the carpark.
Please adhere to the route outlined on the right.
