A MESSAGE FROM DERMOT:
Thankyou everyone for your support over this term and throughout the year. The children enjoyed a whole-school assembly on Monday, when all classes performed their songs for one-another. The children are enjoying online Panto in the hall today and tomorrow.
We wish everyone a wonderful break. We hope you have a Happy Christmas & a Peaceful New Year, if these are occasions for you in the upcoming weeks. Safe travelling to our families who are heading abroad for the holiday.
Lastly, we remember families in our community, who have experienced loss this year – this holiday can be a particularly challenging time, and we hold you in our hearts and in our thoughts – Dermot.
ASSEMBLY RECORDINGS
The assemblies last week were an absolute joy. We have recorded the performances. A HUGE thank you to Jenny, the mother of Casper from Sean’s class, for making these films possible.
