January 10th, 2022
Dear Parents,
I’d like to wish you all a very happy New Year and hopefully 2022 will see an improvement to the Covid 19 situation.
At the moment, there is an increased level of absences among our pupils. It is important that families continue to follow HSE guidelines and that any child that is experiencing Covid 19 symptoms is kept at home. Please continue to notify the school of positive PCR tests so that pupils who share the same pods can be notified.
In order to support and protect our school community, I would be grateful if you would read the notes below. I would like to thank our school families for their continued understanding and support.
Yours sincerely,
Ambrose Mc Ginnity
Principal
