Dear Parents/Guardians,
Cumann na mBunscol Track and Field Championships
We have twenty pupils representing the school in the Cumann na mBunscol Track and Field Championships in Claremont Stadium Navan tomorrow (Tuesday 10th). We are travelling by bus – leaving the school at 09.20am (approx.) and returning at 2pm (approx.). The children will need to bring a lunch, drink and a rain jacket. We wish everyone participating a fun and enjoyable day. Please kindly note bus is €19 and you can pay through Aladdin if you haven’t already.
School Report
The end-of-year school reports will be e-mailed to parents/guardians later this week. If, after receiving the report, you would like to talk to the class teacher about your child’s progress please contact the school to make an appointment.
Relay Marathon
The Parents’ Association Relay Half-Marathon will take place during school this Thursday (12th June). All families were given a Sponsorship Card last week so please return them this week. On Thursday all the children will run a few laps of the field individually. We hope to complete the 21,097.5 metres half-marathon in a time somewhere around 1 hour 30 minutes!
RST Newsletter
The June edition of the RST Newsletter was e-mailed to parents/guardians over the weekend. The next edition is in September. We thank everyone working with the RST for publishing articles about our school on a monthly basis throughout the year.
70th Anniversary
Our 70th Anniversary celebrations throughout the day on Friday were very enjoyable and memorable. We thank Fr. Thomas for celebrating Mass at the start of the day. We had great fun opening the Time Capsules. Most of the capsules were in great condition but a few were beyond ‘retrieving’. We thank Jake and Jane for helping us plant a tree at the front of the school. We had a great turnout for the singing performances and we thank everyone who attended and gave great support to all the children throughout the performance. A big thanks to Agnes and Ms O’Donoghue for preparing the children.
