Re: Return to School of 5th Year Students
Dear Parents/Guardians of 5th Year Students,
As you know, the 5th Year students will return to the classroom from Monday next, March 15th. We are all looking forward to having them back in the building and we all hope that they will have a successful, enjoyable and uninterrupted run-in to the end of the school year. The 6th Years have now successfully completed two weeks back at school and everything has gone extremely well.
Their Year Head, Ms Daly, and I spoke with the 5th Year students at an on-line Assembly on Wednesday and they were given the key information about their return. It is extremely important, now that the school is reopening, that we do everything possible to keep it open. Students must continue to behave, both inside and outside of school, in such a way as to minimise the risk of their being positive cases within the school community.
There are new protocols around students returning to the classroom and these include filling out a Declaration regarding their health status. There are two forms, as follows:
More generally, please note the following:
If you require further information or clarification on any of the above, or in relation to any other matter concerning your son/daughter, do not hesitate to contact the school through this email address or by phoning the School Office (01-2828126).
Kind regards,
John Murphy,
Principal.

This year's Music and Culture Week, from January 22nd to 26th, had a full programme of musical, dance and art activities. Highlights of the week included performances by the Garda Band and a performance of a Bach cantata, which is part of the Leaving Cert music curriculum. This recital, featuring a group of professional singers and musicians, including past-pupil Ross Scanlon, was attended by senior music students from other local schools and was a tremendous success. Everyone was also wowed by an excellent art exhibition, featuring the work of current and past-pupils.
