Last Week

Hello everyone! Thanks so much for the lovely, warm welcome this week. I am really excited to be back. A big thank you to Anna for taking charge as principal and to Katie for being there as her right-hand person! It is such a great time to return to school with the bright mornings and the busy summer term ahead. We’ve got a lot of fun activities lined up in the coming months!

Hockey - message from Jane
Sweetman

Despite the scoreline, the players were great on Tuesday, particularly considering it was some players' first time on a proper hockey pitch, and for some after just 7 weeks of hockey, against an organised opposition. Some great tackling skills on display and super passing. They should be proud of their commitment until the final whistle.
Well done all!

Next Week

National Children's Choir

Wishing our choir the best of luck as they perform next Tuesday, March 25th, at the National Basketball Arena. Parents have received an email detailing the logistics for this event. I am confident that all the children will represent our school admirably and
make us proud. A big thank you to Anna, Gráinne, Ciarán, and Niamh for their dedication and effort in preparing the children for this unforgettable experience.

We are currently in the process of engaging with hot lunch providers. Over the coming weeks, they will visit the school and provide lunch tastings to our student council and staff. A joint decision will then be made as to which provider best suits our school needs. We are keen to get any feedback you may have on this.
