Rang 2: Dáta an Chéad Comaoineach '14

A thuismitheoirí Rang 2,
Ar cúiseanna dosheachainte is gá dáta an Chéad Comaoineach '14 a athrú ón 17ú Bealtaine '14 (17/05/2014) go dtí an 24ú Bealtaine '14 (24/05/2014). Tá súil agam nach gcuireann san isteach oraibh ró-mhór agus theastaigh uaim an méid nóitís ab' fhéidir a thabhairt daoibh.

Dear parents of 2nd Class,
Due to unforeseen circumstances it is necessary to change the date of the First Holy Communion celebration mass from the17th May '14 (17/05/2014) to the following week the 24th May '14 (24/05/2014). I wanted to give you as much notice as possible and I hope this doesn't interfere too much with your plans for the day.
Le gach dea-ghuí,

Cóisir! / Party!

A thuismitheoirí,

 Comh maith le bheith gléasta suas, beidh féasta / cóisir ag gach rang amárach, Dé hAoine 24.10.2013. Beidh cead ag na páistí roinnt milseáin agus cluiche a thógaint isteach ar scoil. Níl cead cluichí ríomhairí / DSI's a thógaint isteach ná aon cluiche / bréagán a bheadh ró-luachmhar mar ní féidir a bheith cinnte nach mbrisfaí iad! Níl cead guma cogainte nó deochanna spraoi ar scoil.
Dear parents,
As well as being dressed up, every class will have a party tomorrow, Friday 24.10.2013. The children will have permission to bring some sweets and games in to school. Computer games / DSI's or any expensive games/toys are not allowed because its likely that they would get broken! Chewing gum and fizzy drinks are not allowed at school.

An Chéad Comaoineach / First Holy Communion

23rd October, 2013

Dear Fellow Parents,

The following are suggestions that you might like to take into account before the next 'Do This in Memory' Mass of your child's preparation for First Holy Communion which is on Saturday 2nd November 2013 at 6.30pm in the Parish Church.

Read the Grapevine Newsletter, the Gospel reading on it is the one that will be used at the Mass.

Encourage your child to read pages 40 and 41 of the Thumb Book and do some colouring.


 Help your child to join in the responses at Mass.

a    Pray and do the actions of the Sign of the Cross.

b.     Priest: The Lord be with you.  Response: And with your Spirit.

c.     At the end of the readings, response:  Thanks be to God.

d.     At the end of the Gospel, response:  Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ (Page 30-32 of the Thumb Book).

It would be good to arrive 10 minutes before Mass starts and to sit up towards the front of the Church.  Bring the Thumb Book

The children will be invited to gather around the Sanctuary to listen to the Gospel and will share in the Homily.

Bring child's Rosary Beads for blessing.

Thank you for your cooperation.

The Parents' Group.

Oíche Shamhna!

A thuismitheoirí!
Tá briseadh mean téarma ag druidim aníos chugainn go tapaidh agus beidh an scoil dúnta an seachtain seo chugainn. Tá sé de nós againn sa scoil cead a thabhairt dos na páistí teacht ar scoil ina n-éadaí oíche shamhna ar an Aoine agus beidh am spraoi acu i rith an lae san chomh maith.EmojiEmojiEmoji I mbliana táim ag iarraidh ar na páistí a thagann ar scoil gléasta suas €2 a bhreith leo. Éinne a thagann ar scoil gléasta cuirfear a n-ainm i gcrannchur le haghaidh na puimcíní móra maisithe atá lasmuigh d'oifig Hilde! EmojiEmoji Críochnóidh na páistí ag na gnáthamanna 1.30 agus 2.30 ar an Aoine seo (25-10-2013). Ní bheidh leath lá ann toisc gur saoire leath-théarma é seo agus ní deireadh-théarma ar nós um Nollaig, um Cháisc agus laethanta saoire an tSamhraidh.

Dear parents!
The mid term break is fast approaching and the school will be closed next week. As with every year we will let the children come to school on the last day in their Halloween costumes and they will have some fun that day in school as well. I'm asking the children that dress up to bring in €2. Every child that does this will get a raffle ticket for a chance to win one of the two large carved pumkins that are outside Hilda's office! The children will finish at the normal time of 1.30 and 2.30 on Friday 25th Oct 2013. There will not be a half day as this is only half term and not the end of term like Christmas, Easter and summer holidays.

A chairde!
Mí an Mheitheamh seo chaite, d'iarradh orainn páirt a ghlacadh i gclár trí mhean an Ghaeilge ar RTÉ 1. Chraolaíodh an clár inar ghlacamar páirt ann ar an teilifís aréir! Abhainn ab ainm don sraith agus dhírigh siad isteach ar Abhainn an Bhandan aréir. Labhair cuid dár bpaistí agus Múinteoir Siobhán Ní Núnáin. Bhíodar go hiontach ar fad. An rud a tháinig trasna go láidir ná an féin mhuinín agus cé chomh compórdach is a bhí na páistí ag labhairt as Gaeilge -fiú ar an teilifís! Rinneadar an-job de agus táim thar a bheith bródúil astu! Níor tugadh aon réamhfhógra dúinn go mbeadh se ar siúl nó bheadh sé ráite againn libh roimh ré. Munar eirigh libh féachaint air aréir is féidir libh é a fheiscint ar an RTÉ player. Gaelscoil Chionn tSáile abú! 

Dear Parents,
Last June, Gaelscoil Chionn tSáile was asked to take part in an Irish language programme for RTÉ 1. The programme we participated in was broadcast last night! "Abhainn" is the name of the series and they focused on the Bandon river last night.Some of our (now) 5th class children and Múinteoir Siobhán Ní Núnáin spoke on the programme. They did such a great job! One thing that struck me about it was how confident the children were and how comfortable they were conversing in Irish -even on television! They really came across so well and I'm so so proud of them. We weren't given any notice of the programme being aired or we would have told you in advance but if you didn't get a chance to see it you can watch it on the RTÉ Player. Gaelscoil Chionn tSáile abú!

Seo nasc don gcláir 'Abhainn' aréir (14.10.2013) http://www.rte.ie/player/ie/show/10208192/

Dear Parents,

 

The Enrollment of your child for First Confession and First Holy Communion will take place at the 6.30pm Mass on Saturday evening, 5th October 2013.

 

This is a special moment when your child is presented to God and to the local community in preparation for these Sacraments.

 

Please read Thumb Book, pages 5 – 9 before the Mass and bring the book with you to Mass.

 

Please bring the Enrolment Certificate that your child will have received in school to the Mass.

 

Arrive ideally at least about 10 minutes before Mass and sit towards the front of the Church.  You will sit with your child.

 

The Enrolment Ceremony will take place after the Homily.

 

At Communion time your child will come with you for a Blessing.  The children have been taught in school to cross hands over their chests, bow and the Priest will pray over your child.  A Blessing is asking God's help and protection.

 

The Enrolment Mass is also the Parish Mass.  Please be sensitive to others who are the regular attendees and for whom this is their weekly Mass.

 

After Mass please collect the following at the altar…..

 

4        The Grapevine: a special newsletter for parents.  Read it and follow the guidelines in order           to help your child prepare for the Sacraments.

 

4        Prayer of Blessing for your Sacred Space.

 

4        Candle for your Sacred Space.

 

We look forward to see you.
