Welcome back to all our pupils and their families as we begin our second term. We look forward to another busy few weeks with plans already taking shape for a show in March and lots of Green School Activity. Keep up to date using this blog.

Well done to all the Junior Infants who are now sporting their ‘I was immunised’ badge. Thank you to all the parents and adults who had to fit this appointment into their schedules. If your child was not in school today the HSE will contact you with another clinic time.

Reminder: If you ordered a school calendar before the holidays you should collect it from the school office.

Copper Fair

‘The King was in his counting house, counting out his money’. This group spent the afternoon sorting 1c, 2c, 5c coins into bags. Great credit goes to the pupils of 6th Class  who organised a ‘Copper Fair’ in aid of The Society of St. Vincent de Paul.

Homemade cakes and biscuits,

a nail bar and friendship bracelets,

and games of many kinds were organised,

 to encourage the pupils throughout the school, to part with their small change in aid of this good cause. 6th Class would like to say a sincere thank you to all who supported their fund raising event so generously and would like to announce that they made €666 approx. which was forwarded to The Society of St Vincent de Paul this afternoon.

Kathleen Crosby has once again produced a beautiful set of pictures documenting the life of the school throughout 2012. Each page of next year’s calendar is packed full of the energy your children display each season. As usual all holidays and events planned for 2013 are included. If you would like to order a calendar for yourself or you wish to order some as gifts please fill in the order slip sent home with one of your children this week and return it to the office by November 30th so that the Parent’s Council can place their order with the printer.

Thank you to all those who work to produce this lovely school record each year especially Kathleen who attends events in the school on many of her days off so that she will have a large collection of pictures to choose from. Thank you also to Pam who tracks all the orders through the office.
