Míoltóga Gruaige - Rang 1 / Head lice - 1st Class

A thuistí, Cuireadh ar an eolas mé go raibh cás míoltóga ghruaige i Rang 1. Scrúdaigh gruaig do pháiste anocht agus cuir an leigheas cuí air más gá. Chun na míoltóga gruaige a sheachaint chabhrófar gruaig na gcailíní a chur suas agus banda gruaige leathan a chaitheamh. Go raibh míle maith agaibh!

Dear parents, I have been informed of a case of headlice in First Class. Please check your child's hair tonight and treat it if necessary. To avoid the head lice it would help to put up the girls' hair and for them to wear a wide hairband. Thanking you all in advance!

Míle buíochas as bhur gcomhoibriú,

Siobhán Ní Núnáin

It has come to my attention that some pupils aren't sure what days they should wear their sports clothes. 

Currently, the arrangement for all classes is as follows: 

Sports tracksuit- Monday and Friday only (unless occasionally they have a blitz/match another day)

(They are currently doing hurling/camogie with Anthony/parents and dancing with their teacher.)

Full school uniform- Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 

Pupils cannot wear a hoody instead of their school jumper. 

They will be asked to remove hoodies/scarves in class. 

Thank you for your cooperation.

​

2016:

​

Féach ar seo! Tá gach páiste sa scoil i ndiaidh laghdú a dhéanamh bruscar a chruthaíonn siad agus athúsáid a dhéanamh. 

Nílimid ag déanamh an méid céanna bruscaire a dá bharr!

Maith sibh!

Meabhrúcháin: 

• Cosc ar scragall stáin
• Úsáid fleasc in ionad buidéal plaisteach nua gach lá

Look at this! The whole school has managed to reduce the amount of waste we create. We have gotten rid of two big rubbish bins. We are reducing, reusing and recycling and also saving money for the school! Well done!

Reminder: 

• Tin foil is not allowed
• Please use a flask instead of a new plastic bottle every day

Athchúrsáil fóin- Irish Autism Action Mobile phone recycling appeal

A thuismitheoirí,

Seol isteach bhur sean- gutháin soghluaiste le bhur dtola. Féach thíos le haghaidh a thuilleadh eolas. Gheobhaimid ipad dara láimhe má bhailímid 40 fóin cliste.

We are delighted to tell you that our school has registered to support Irish Autism Action and their Mobile phone recycling appeal this school year.

By donating the phones, not only is the school gaining much needed technology and equipment, we are also doing our bit for the environment. The mobile phones will be exchanged for badly needed resources for our school like iPads, laptops, Defibrillators, sporting equipment etc. 

Most of us have old mobile phone lying at the bottom of that drawer, so I would encourage you to take a look in that drawer, cupboard or box, ☺ hopefully find a phone, and return it to your child's teacher. For more information on the campaign go to www.autismirelandphones.ie

Remember by donating the phones you are also helping Irish Autism Action in its mission to raise the quality of life of individuals and their families affected by autism

I hope you will consider donating your old phone to our collection.

Thanking you in advance for your continued support of our school.

Le meas, 

Siobhán Ní Núnáin.

Tuistí Rang 2 - An Chéad Chomaoineach / First Holy Communion

Dear Parents,

Our next  ‘Do this in Memory’ Mass will be held on:

·         Sunday, 21^st February 2016 at 10:00 AM, for Dunderrow and Gaelscoil

It is the second Sunday of Lent. The word Lent is an old English word for Spring – the days ‘lengthening’. It is about making a fresh start. It is about spring-cleaning, getting rid of bad habits.

Please read with your child page 56 – 57 of the Thumb Book and do the colouring.

The space in front of the Altar at the ‘Do This in Memory’ Mass will have the Ashes of Ash Wednesday, a Trocaire Box and a purple cloth.

The theme of the Mass is the Transfiguration of Jesus on Mount Tabor – it is about taking time out and listening to the voice of God. In the Gospel the voice of God says Jesus is his Son, ‘listen to Him.’

Please encourage your child to pray aloud the responses at Mass with you.

Please pick up the Grapevine after Mass. It explains about First Penance which your child will soon be celebrating.

The children will make their First Penance on:

·         Monday, 29^th February 2016 at 7 p.m., for Dunderrow, Summercove, and Scoil Naomh Eltin

·         Monday, 7^th March 2016 at 7 p.m., for the Gaelscoil.

We look forward to seeing you.

Yours sincerely,

Fr. Robert and the Parents Coordinating Group
