Week 5

 

Teacher Only Day - June 7

There will be no school on this day for the children.  If you require child care you can contact Maryanne Rolling on 0211 215599. 

School Uniform

The children are wearing their winter uniform with pride and they look great but I would like to remind them of a few little things that we have noticed.  

• Polar fleeces are to be worn outside the class only.  As it is getting a little chilly, the children may need to make sure they have their red knit jersey.  They are able to put on their polar fleece when they go outside.

• Jewellery - Earrings must be studs, religious and cultural jewellery is acceptable.  No bracelets, anklets etc.

• Nail polish - Nail polish must not be worn to school.

• Shoes - This information is from our Website. 
• In winter, boys wear grey knee high socks with black lace up leather school shoes and girls wear navy blue knee high socks or navy blue tights with black lace up leather school shoes or black Mary-Jane shoes - with a strap across the top of the foot.

We have Mass this week and it is expected that all children are in the correct uniform.

Cross Country

We still have a few parents who need to complete the online form; this is so important because we need to know how transport will work for your child to and from the event. Thank you to everyone who has completed the form. I have contacted parents via e mail  who have said they can help. Please check your email.

Birthday Celebrations

We understand that many children like to celebrate their birthday by bringing in treats to share with their class.  With COVID still having a presence in our school we do not want to be sharing food in this way.   It is also a financial strain on some families who feel they must keep up with the birthday sharing tradition, therefore we would ask you to please not send in birthday treats to be shared at school.
