Spring Greetings

A Cháirde,

Pre-enrolments

It has been a very busy few weeks here in the office regarding enrolments for 2017. We are confirming the final places for this September at present. Sylvia has asked can you email her all siblings and year they will be starting. She would like to ensure that all siblings are pre-enroled. Please use info@graceparketns.com

Accomodation for 2017

We are still awaiting confirmation from the Department regarding our accommodation for this September. I will keep you all informed over the coming weeks.

Guided Reading

The children are doing so well with our new reading scheme and I would like to thank our parent volunteers for the great job that they are doing. Parents who have volunteered for the second session of guided reading should receive their Garda vetting invitation in the coming weeks.

Spring Clean

We are having a Spring clean here at the school this Saturday at 11.30 am. We have a number of bags of recycling which we need to be collected. We are also hoping to organise the meeting room and ensure that we have a clean and green school environment. We would really appreciate if some people could lend us a hand for an hour. If you can make it this Saturday can you email or text the school phone on 0851368422.

Board of Management Agreed Report

The members of the Board of Management are currently liasing with the Department of Education regarding our future school development. Our school plan is currently gone to the design stage within the Departments forward planning section. We will endeavour to keep the school community informed as things progress.

Shout-out to Parents

We are having our second "Friendship Week" from the 13th - 17th of February to coincide with Valentine's Day. Caroline has asked if any parents have any talents in the arts and crafts that she would love to organise some workshops for the children during this week. You can email Caroline directly if you are interested.

Happy Spring to you all!

Marcus :)
