RETNS is closed until September 2020.

During this time, please remember the importance of social distancing. We all need to stay at home as much as possible. When taking exercise, social gatherings outdoors should be of no more than four people except for people from the same household. Please remind your children of this and know where they are at all times.

It is extremely important that we have up-to-date contact details for all parents and guardians. If you regularly receive texts and emails from school, there is no need to take any action. If, however, you have changed your phone number or email address recently, please email info@retns.ie with your updated phone number or email address as soon as possible.

Sixth Class Graduation 2020

As we reach the end of a very different school year we can still look back and remember with fondness all the incredible achievements and experiences the boys and girls of the Class of 2020 have had in RETNS. 2020 was a unique school year however we can also make comparisons with the uniqueness and individuality of every child in 6th class. I have no doubt that each child will continue to reach their potential and express themselves in all aspects of their lives as they continue on their learning journey. When you watch the Photo Story it is a story of the primary school life of the Class of 2020 and the main theme is kindness and happiness. That is crystal clear in every single photo and that is what school is all about. The togetherness over the years and friendships that they have made provide lifelong memories. This is not the end, it is just the beginning. May each and everyone of you strive for excellence, be kind and be your best self.

Best wishes

Ronan.
