Dear Parents/Guardians,
A reminder that school will be closed tomorrow due to the Red Weather warning.
Some reminders and dates:
Scór Competition
We have competitors taking part in the Scór na bPáistí competition in Carrig Hall next Weds. Jan. 29th. We have two groups of musicians and one set dancing group organised by Ms. O'Grady. Ms. Casey has two singing groups entering the competition as well as two solo singers. And I have a Drama group and two other pupils doing recitations/storytelling. We wish all our competitors the very best and encourage them to practice over the next three days. On the day, parents are invited to come to the hall to see the children. There are a few other schools also in this first round so there is no time established for the various acts.
Confirmation
Fr. Boggan has planned five Confirmation preparation masses for the pupils in 5th and 6th making their Confirmation. One of these was last Monday evening, our thanks to everyone who made it at short notice. The next four masses are 10th Feb, 24th Feb, 10th March and 24th of March at 7pm in Carrig church.
The Confirmation Day will be on Friday April 4th at 11am. On that day, there will be almost 70 pupils making their Confirmation so there are only two guaranteed seats on the day. There are always a few other seats - first come, first served basis.
3rd and 4th class pupils go to the church that day as they are all in the choir.
The school will remain open for the children in Junior Infants to 2nd class until 12.30pm that day.
Parent/Teacher Meetings
Time slots for these meetings will go out next week. They will be held on Mon. Feb. 17th and Tues. Feb. 18th.
I hope everyone stays safe and the storm heads off in a different direction!
Audrey and staff
