Míoltóga Gruaige / Head lice

A thuistí, 

Cás míoltóga ghruaige arís (14/09//2015) i Rang 3 . 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,

There is another case of  a case of head lice (14/09/2015) in 3rd Class. 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.

Bhí Rang 4 agus Rang 6 thar a bheith ghnóthach ar maidin ar scoil. Rinne Rang 4 anraith as na glasraí a d'fhás sa ghairdín i mbliaina. Rinneamar anraith le oinniúin, prátaí agus caineanna. Chun dul leis an anraith álainne rinne Rang 6 arán sóide. Bhí sé ana bhlasta ar fad. Maith sibh a pháistí!

Ba mhaith linn ár mbuiochas a ghabháil chuig Máire agus Valerie a chabhraigh go mór linn sa chistin!

Rang 4 and Rang 6 were very busy this morning in school. Rang 4 made soup from the vegetables that we grew in the school garden during the year. We made onion, potato and leek soup. To accompany our lovely soup, Rang 6 made soda bread. It was very tasty! Maith sibh a pháistí!

We would like to say thank you to Máire and Valerie who helped us in the kitchen today!

Tuismitheoirí Rang 2 / Parents of 2nd Class pupils

Dear Parents,

As you know your child is now in the First Communion class. I write to you concerning the preparation for your child's Sacrament of Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.  I have invited an outside facilitator, Mícheál de Barra who has a lot of experience in Faith Development.  He will help us, parents, teachers, parish community, all together, to look at how best we can help the children prepare for the Sacraments.

The meeting will explore what is essentially involved in the preparation and help you, the parents, to decide if you want to be part of the parish Preparation Programme which will be necessary if you wish your child to receive First Holy Communion.  Accordingly, we invite you to a meeting of the parents/guardians only in the Friary Centre (next to Friary Church in Catholic Walk, Kinsale) on Tuesday, September 15^th 2015at 8pm. This meeting will last two hours approximately.

At this meeting, those who wish to participate will be given details of the Preparation Programme and significant dates.

The Enrollment Mass for your child's First Communion will be Sunday, September 20^th 2015 at 10.00am in St. John the Baptist Parish Church.

May the Lord be with us all to help us to do the best for the children.

Yours sincerely,

Fr. Robert Young
