Dear Parents and Guardians/A Thuismitheoirí agus a Chaomhnóirí,

Thank you to the PTA for organising the talk by Cybersafekids last night. Informally the feedback has been really positive, and we will share some useful links in next week’s letter.

Annual meeting of Board and Parents and PTA AGM

We had a very positive and informative meeting last night where the Board shared some priorities for the year and annual finances with the parents. The Board acknowledged and thanked Colm and Aisling (Treasurer) for their 4 years on the Board.

Colin, Chairperson of the PTA, acknowledged the following people who have contributed immensely to the school over many years and who are stepping down from the PTA:
Siofra, Val, Yvonne, Lisa, Suzanne and Maria

I feel very grateful for all the above people have done for the school, being generous with their time and skills.

New Board of Management

We welcome Claire onto the Board as Treasurer and Grace as Teacher nominee.
