Tuismitheoirí Rang 1 / Parents of 1st Class
Rang 1 Parents
As you are probably aware it is the Parents of Rang 1 who organise the Communion Party each year, this year it takes place on Saturday 24th of May 2014.
We will be asking that every parent who has a child making their communion next year to help in some way. There are lots of people needed to help on the day / help set up the night before / help clean up when the party is over.
For the moment we are looking for 2 volunteers from Rang 1 to lead the party organisation.
If you would like to volunteer to lead the organising, please text Grace on 087 9788132
Remember it will be your turn next yearJ
Thanks
Grace and Carol

Progress on Kinsale Gaelscoil Welcomed | West Cork Times
"LABOUR TD for Cork South-West Michael McCarthy and local Councillor Tomás O’Brien have welcomed notification from the Department of Education of plans to provide a new school building for Gaelscoil Chionn tSáile, Kinsale, Co. Cork.
The Minister for Education has confirmed that the Department of Education has recently commenced the process of identifying and acquiring a suitable permanent site for Gaelscoil Chionn tSáile.
“I welcome this development as a positive step forward for the parents, staff and children of this school. While the project is still in its very early days, I will continue to liaise with my colleague Minister Ruairi Quinn on the matter and ensure that these plans are given appropriate attention and focus amid the very limited financial outlook. The Department’s latest response on this is promising and I look forward to the matter progressing.” "

Ceistneoir faoin éide scoile/ Questionnaire on school uniform
Tá athrú ag teacht ar cá mbeidh an éide scoile ar fáil. Buíochas mór le Dia! Beidh gach rud seachas na bríste agus an gúna ar fáil ó 4orm i gCarraig Uí Leighin. Beidh seirbhís seachadha go dtí an scoil acu muna n-oireann sé daoibh dul ann. Beidh sibh in ann dul ann chun rudaí a cheannach agus a ordú nó ordú a cur ar líne.
Is dóigh liom go naontaíonn gach éinne go bhfuil éide scoile fíor dheas againn i nGaelscoil Chionn tSáile. Chuireadh alán smaoineamh, taighde agus obair isteach ann ag ár gcéad coiste na dtuismitheoirí nuair a d’osclaíomar ar dtús agus deineadh an t-uafás oibre chun na hearraí éagsúla a fháil ar an bpraghas is lú agus ab fhéidir. Is de bharr an sár-iarracht sin go bhfuil éide scoile chomh alainn againn! Bíonn daoine i gcónaí ag caint fúinn nuair a théimid amach agus ag rá cé chomh deas is a fhéachann ár bpáistí inti.
Bímid de shíor ag iarraidh caighdeán, costas agus infhaighteacht an éide scoile a fheabhsú agus le cúnamh Dé beidh 4orm in ann freastal ar ár riachtanaisí.
Ta alán caint faoi éide scoile ar na meáin faoi láithir. Tá alán caint faoi tromaíocht chomh maith. Is dóigh liom gur chóir dúinn gach rud gur féidir linn a dhéanamh chun ár leanaí a chosaint ó thromaíocht. Sin an cúis is laidre b’fhéidir go bhfuil sé tabhachtach éide scoile cruinn a bheith i ngach rang –na hárdranganna ach go háirithe. Teastaíonn uaim gach seans a bhaint do pháistí a bheith ag cur isteach ar pháistí eile –ma tá an éide scoile ceanann céanna ar na páistí ar fad ní féidir comórtais a bheith eatarthu mar gheall ar lipéidí costasacha nó go mór i mbéal an phobal.
Ta foirm á sheoladh amach sna málaí scoile inniú.
Líon isteach an fhoirm agus seol isteach roimh an gCéadaoin an 19ú Márta 2014.
There’s a change in where the uniform can be bought –Thank heavens I hear you say! Every item with the exception of the trousers and pinafore can be purchased from 4orm.ie -online or from their premises in Carrigaline. They will even deliver to the school if you can’t go to collect them.
I think everyone agrees that we have a lovely uniform in Gaelscoil Chionn tSáile. Alot of effort and work went into it from day 1 and the quality is super. A huge amount of negotiation secured a very high quality uniform at a comparatively low price –lower quality items can be got at a cheaper price but would have to be replaced more regularly. People always comment on how lovely our uniform is whenever we go out on trips etc.
We are continuously trying to improve the price whilst maintaining the quality. We have tried to make the uniform more easily available and I think 4orm may be the answer to our needs.
There’s a lot of talk in the media about uniforms etc in the last few months. There has also been a lot of talk about bullying. I believe it is our duty to try to protect our children from this scourge in whatever way we can. This is the strongest argument for having a strict uniform for every class but for older classes especially. I want to eliminate the opportunity for some children to annoy other children about having “cool” clothes or expensive labeled clothing. If every child has the exact uniform as described on the site there can be no competition between them or pressure on parents to buy certain items.
There is a form for every household in their bags today.
Please complete and return the form no later than Wednesday 19th March 2014.

Leabharlann Scoile / School Library
A thuismitheoirí,
Tá sé i gceist againn leabharlann scoile/cúinne léitheoireachta a thosnú sa seomra ranga nua. Cuirfidh sé seo le cumais léitheoireacht na bpáistí ar fad agus leis an taitneamh a bhaineann siad as leabhair agus léitheoireacht. Ba mhaith linn a bheith in ann áit deas speagúil a chur ar fáil dos na páistí inár féidir leo leabhar ficsean agus neamhficsean (as Gaeilge agus as Béarla) a léamh agus a thógáil ar iasacht.
Chun tús a chur le seo, táimid ag iarradh oraibh aon leabhair atá sa bhaile agaibh, atá léite ag bhur bpáistí agus go bhfuil siad críochnaithe leo a thabhairt isteach don leabharlann.
Is féidir libh iad a sheoladh isteach le bhur páistí nó iad a thabhairt isteach go Hilda san oifig.
Go raibh míle maith agaibh.
Dear Parents,
We are planning to start a school library/reading corner in our new classroom. This would have huge benefits for the children in every class, both adding to the enjoyment that the children get from books at school and also boosting their literacy skills at the same time. We want to be able to provide a pleasurable and inspiring reading environment that each class will look forward to visiting and be able to both read and borrow fiction and non fiction books in English and Irish.
You can help us with our library by donating any books that your children have read and are finished with. All donations will be gratefully accepted.
Thank you all for your support.

Lá Náisiúnta na Leabhair / National Book Day
Déardaoin 06.03.2014 Lá Náisiúnta na Leabhair. Chun é a chomoradh i gceart táim ag tabhairt cead dos na páistí an leabhar is fearr leo a thabhairt ar an lá. Beidh am faoi leith tugtha dóibh chun iad a léamh.
Thursday, 06.03.’14, is World Book Day! To mark it properly I am giving the children permission to bring in their favourite book to school on Thursday. There will be time allocated to read them.
