Dear Parents/Guardians,
A few brief reminders:
School closes tomorrow Friday June 25th
As all classes can't leave at the same time, these are the arrangements for collection next Friday:
6th class will exit at 11.45am
Junior/Senior Infants & 1st class and siblings: 11.55am
2nd & 3rd and siblings at 12 midday
4th & 5th at 12.05pm
We ask you to please remember these times as we do not want all classes exiting at the same time.
Graduation tomorrow for 6th Class pupils
We have a very special ceremony tomorrow starting at 9.45am with speeches, performances, gifts and treats and our presentation of the Maireád French and Seán McKenna perpetual trophies to our pupils of the year.
This ceremony will be put up online afterwards for all parents to see.
We ask that pupils in 6th class do not bring mobile phones to school tomorrow - as per our Mobile Phone Policy.
We thank the Parents and Friends Group and other 6th class parents today for the lovely treats that 6th class are getting for lunch today!
Booklists
These are up on our website under Parents' Area > Booklists 2021/2022. If you did not receive an Aladdin link for payment please email Helena on ballymittyns@gmail.com
School Bags not needed next year from Junior Infants - 2nd class: Just to remind parents that due to Covid 19 regulations which will continue into the new academic year and a lack of space/storage in our classrooms, school bags are not needed for Junior - 2nd class. This will keep costs down for parents also. A lunch bag and drink are essential.
You will also see on the booklists that a fully stocked school pencil case is needed for 1st - 6th classes. This stays in school for the year. Pupils will go home today with their school based pencil cases from this year so that they can be re-stocked!

The Big Match
Finally, we wish all of our 6th class the very best of luck in their Rounders match versus Staff at 2pm today! Two very strong teams are ready to battle it out! May the best team win!
Kind regards,
Audrey
