Welcome to this week Newlsetter –

TEACHING AND LEARNING Our students from St Pat’s are with us fr another week, and after that we are letting them off into the big bad world. Thanks to all of them for being so dedicated to the school, and the children.

The classes will be covering topics in Social, Personal & Health Education this month, and you will see specific homework around this subject, which will keep you linked in.

Friends for Life is wrapping up in the classes this week. We will be working on a collaborative art piece to celebrate the completion and the success of the programme.

DOUBLE YELLOW LINES – PARKING.
We have been successful in installing double yellow lines outside the school. Local groups and other schools on the lane were also involved in this, which is for the safety of the children and community. PLEASE do not park on the double yellow lines when collecting your child. It disregards child safety and all the work we have put into it.
