Dear Parents and Children,
Many thanks for all your efforts over the past few weeks to keep school ticking over. Easter holidays start on Friday 3rd April. There will be no extra work assigned for the next two weeks so a chance for everyone to take a breather!
Don't forget, Home School Hub will continue on RTE2 over the coming weeks.
We sincerely hope that you will get some rest over the Easter Holidays, even if the break is more confined than normal.
We would like to wish everyone a Happy Easter and stay safe.

Dear Parents and children,
We hope that you are coping well with the changed circumstances this school term and following all the advice from the health professionals. No doubt, children have begun working through the school work already given. In the coming days further guidelines will be given for each class level on work that can be completed up to Easter Holidays.
Also included is a list of appropriate educational websites that the children might find useful. We would encourage you to use them to support your continued learning while the school is closed.
If you haven't got your school books, you can download them. The book companies are allowing pupils/parents to download textbooks for free while schools are closed. Go to the "Websites" page of this section to find web addresses and instructions.
However, we do not want anybody to feel stressed or overwhelmed by work being sent home for children. Families should do the best they can, use the suggestions and guidelines if they suit. Most importantly, keep safe and well.
John Curran, Principal
