Welcome Back!
Oh we are so excited to begin Term 1 of the academic year 2025/2026. We welcome some new staff members, Tara, Barbara, Olivia and Hugh and we welcome our new Junior Infants and some other new children up through the school.
The school has had a couple of uplifts, we are now going to be harnessing the power of the sun for some of our electricity, have a look at the monitor inside the front door. We have new broadband, new notice boards and beautifully covered older boards (thanks to Eoin and George ex pupils of ours).
School opens tomorrow at the usual time of 8:50. Don't forget you have moved up a class! Our Community Garden has vegeatables to harvest and our Ash trees are full of berries this year, look at our gallery below.

Value for September
Our value for our 1st month in 2025/2026 is Co-operation and Kindness. September brings it's own challenges as we transition back from holidays. We are in new classes, we have new teachers and staff so it is very important that we co-operate and be kind to those around us. It will also be the 1st proper month of our new Bí Cineálta Policy and Committee.

European Union Support through NextGenerationEU
This school now has high speed broadband connectivity through the Department of Education School Broadband Programme, delivered as part of the Irish National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) under the Recovery and Resilience Facility funded by the European Union through NextGenerationEU.
