This week (20-24 October 2014) is Ant-Bullying Week in the Gaelscoil. The staff have done great work / research over the last few months on putting this anti-bullying policy together. It is now on the school website and ratified by our Board of Management.Please read through the policy and discuss it at home with your child. Our Policy of Good Behaviour (white cards system) in the school and it will be running alongside the new Anti-Bullying policy. Your child will have classes / homework based on the topic of bullying this week. Every child in the school will be getting a buddy and we will be starting a friendship circle in the yard. This is a circle in which children stand if they have no one to play with and when their friends see them in the circle they go to play / talk to them.

Seachtain na Matamaitice / Maths Week
Comhghairdeachs le múinteoirí na scoile a chur béim mhór ar Seachtain na Matamaitice an tseachtain seo chaite (13-17 Deireadh Fómhair 2014). Bhí sé go hiontach na páistí a fheiscint gníomach timpeall na scoile / sa chlós i mbun triailacha matamaitice. Maith sibh! Tá samplaí don dea-obair a bhí ar siúl le feiscint ar fallaí an phasáiste.
Congratulations to the teachers of the school that put a big emphasis on Maths Week last week (13-17 October 2014). It was wonderful to see the children active conducting maths trials around the school grounds. Well done!. Examples of the good work carried out are on show in the school.
Oíche Shamhna!/ Haloween
A thuismitheoirí!
Tá briseadh mean téarma ag druidim 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. I mbliana táim ag iarraidh ar na páistí a thagann ar scoil gléasta suas €2 a bhreith leo. Beidh an tairgead á bhailíodh á chaitheamh ar scéim leabhair a dheighleáileann le toipicí mothalacha. Tá stór bheag againn faoi láthair agus tá tuismitheoirí ana bhuíoch astu in am a gháthar. Táid bunaithe ar téamaí cosúil le páistí faoi bhrú, le scarúint tuismitheoirí, bás sa chlann srl. Mura bhfuil siad feiscithe agat tá an t-adh leat ach táid anseo má tharlaíonn droch heachtra i do shaol/saol do pháiste. Éinne a thagann ar scoil gléasta suas cuirfear a n-ainm i gcrannchur le haghaidh na puimcíní móra maisithe atá lasmuigh d'oifig Hilde! Críochnóidh na páistí ag na gnáthamanna 1.30 agus 2.30 ar an Aoine seo (24-10-2013). 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 arrives dressed up will get a raffle ticket for a chance to win one of the large carved pumkins that are on display in the school. The children will finish at the normal time of 1.30 and 2.30 on Friday 24th Oct 2013.
The money collected will be spent on a book scheme that deals with sensitive topics. We have a small stock of these books at the moment the parents are very grateful for them during a time of trouble. The books are based on a variety of themes like children under stress, parental separation, death in the family etc. These books are here for you to borrow if you need them.

Díolacháin Cistí / Cake Sale
Mar chuid don feachtas bailliúcháin airgid atá ar siúl againn faoi láthair, táimid ag súil go mbeidh díolacháin cístí againn gach mhí. Rang difriúil i bhfeighil air gach uair. An Aoine bheag seo, an 24ú Deireadh Fómhair 2014 beidh Rang a 6 agus Múinteoir Eavan á chur ar siúl agus ag bácáil. Níl cead cnóite d'aon shórt a úsáid le linn an bhácáil.
Beidh costas €1 ar earra agus níl cead ach ceann amháin a cheannach.
Tuigim go bhfuil ailéirgeanna éagsúla ag páistí na scoile, mar sin beidh pláta speisialta ag gach díolacháin le cístí atá oiriúnach dóibh siúd.
There will be a very strict nut free policy for the home baking that will be brought in by the children.
Each bun/cake will cost €1 so we ask that each child would be allowed to bring in €1 on the day to buy 1 bun/cake.
We are aware of children in the school who my be intolerant of other foods eg. dairy, wheat, gluten. We will make sure that each cake sale had a plate of buns/cakes to accommodate these diets.

Míoltóga Ghruaige / Head Lice
A thuistí,
Cuireadh ar an eolas mé inniu (17.10.2014) go bhfuil cás míoltóga ghruaige sa scoil (Rang 6) agus dhá chás eile le déanaí i rang rang 4 agus rang 1. Scrúdaigh gruaig do pháiste anocht agus cuir an leigheas cuí air más gá. Tá sé an-dheacair fáilt réidh le míoltóga ghruaige muna bhféachann gach clann ar gruaig a bpáistí féin.Táim ag impí oraibh seo a dhéanamh chun cosc a chur ar an fhadhb go tapaidh.
Dear parents,
I have been informed today (17.10.2014) of a case of head lice in the school today - 6th Class and also cases in 1st and 4th class recently. Please check your child's hair tonight and treat it if necessary. It is very hard to get rid of head lice if each family does not look at their own children's heads. I am imploring you to do this to stop the problem quickly.

Páistí don Chéad Chomaoineach / First Holy Communion Children
Thíos tá nóta ón tAthair Robert le léamh ag na tuistí roimh aifreann an Satharn seo 18.10.2014
Below is a note that Fr. Robert would like all First Communion parents to read before the 'Do This in Memory Mass' this Saturday 18.10.2014 at 6.30p.m. in the Parish Church
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 this Saturday 18th of October 2014 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. Gospel: Matthew 22:15-21 (Give back to Caesar what belong to Caesar - and to God what belongs to God)
Encourage your child to read pages 40 and 41 of the Thumb Book and to do some colouring.
Help your child to join in the responses at Mass.
Pray and do the actions of the Sign of the Cross.
Priest: The Lord be with you. Response: And also with your Spirit.
At the end of the readings, response: Thanks be to God.
At the end of the Gospel, response: Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ (Page 30-32 of Thumb Book)
It would be good to arrive 10 minutes before Mass starts and to sit up towards the front of the Church and to 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.

Cúntaisí na Scoile / School Accounts
A thuismitheoirí,
Táimid ag dul tríd cúntaisí na scoile faoi láithir. Tá go leoir airgead le teacht isteach fós ag tuismitheoirí. Seans go bhfuil dearmad déanta ag daoine futhu. Ní maith liom brú a chur ar dhaoine ach tá an scoil féin faoi bhrú ó thaobh airgid de. Muna bhfuil tú cinnte faoi bheith i bhfiacha leis an scoil cur glaoch ar Hilda. Oibríonn Hilda gach lá go dtí 1.30p.m. Beidh sí in ann a rá leat. Má tá deachrachtaí ag daoine ní bheidh aon fhadhb le córas íocaíochta míosúla a thosnú go deireadh na bliana. Níl le déanamh ach labhairt le Hilda. Beidh na socraithe seo faoi rún an scoil agus na daoine aonair.
Dear parents,
We are going over the school accounts at the moment. There is a lot of money due from parents. It is possible that people have forgotten. I don't like to put pressure on people but the school itself is under financial pressure. If you are not sure about owing money to the school, give Hilda a ring. Hilda works every day until 1.30 p.m. She will be able to tell you. If people have difficulties there will be no problem setting up a monthly payment plan to the end of the year. All you have to do is to speak to Hilda. These arrangements will be confidential between the school and the individuals involved.

Tuismitheoirí Ranganna 2/3 / Parents of 2nd & 3rd Class Pupils
A Thuismitheoirí, a chairde,
Ag féachaint ar uimhireacha don scoil bhliain 2015/2016 tá cine tógtha ag an mBord Bainistíochta go mbeidh ranganna 2 agus 3 ag teacht le chéile. Sé sin go mbeidh sraith amháin do ranganna a trí agus ceathair againn. Gan amhras is ar an teolas atá againn faoi láthair a bhraitheann sé seo agus lé cúnamh Dé ní thiocfaidh athrú ar an scéal.
Looking at our figures for the 2015/2016 school year the Board of Management have taken the decision to join the currently split 2nd and 3rd classes. We are hoping to have one third and one fourth class next year. These plans are based on our current knowledge of figures and, therefore , could change.
Tuismitheoirí Rang 6 / Parents of 6th Class
