Dear Parents,
Sports News
The first round of Rounders games take place over the coming weeks. The Boys and Girls will both play v Newbawn NS this Thursday April 3rd at 12.30pm. This will be played in the sports ground in Newbawn, close to the school. We are asking parents for lifts as the cost is so expensive for buses at the moment. Children can be collected just before midday for this match.
FAI soccer blitz - this is happening next Monday April 7th for most boys and girls in 5th/6th Class. A letter and permission slip went out today. Please return by Thursday. We are asking for €5 from each player. The bus will leave at 8.45am sharp next Monday morning.
Rackard League - Boys will play their Quarter Final v Glynn in Grantstown next Tues. April 8th at 2.30pm. Can be collected at 2pm.

Confirmation
Our school buses cannot be here for the half day finish of 12.30pm this Friday so instead school will finish at 12 midday on Friday for the junior end.
We are all set and ready for Confirmation. We ask the choir students of 3rd and 4th to be in the church for 10.30am. There is no need for them to wear their uniforms.
We also ask all of the pupils making Confirmation to be there by 10.30am. At 10.45am there will be a photographer to take the class photos on the altar and we ask that parents allow him to take his photos before they take their photos. Will Cusack, the photographer, has also been booked to take any family photos you need. These will be taken in a classroom in Danescastle NS after the Confirmation. All parents/families are invited back to Danescastle NS after the Confirmation for refreshments.
1st/2nd Class Tour tomorrow Weds. April 2nd. Please be on time for school as the bus will leave at 9.30am sharp.
Thanks everyone,
Audrey
