September 2021 Please familiarise yourselves with symptoms and keep children at home if they present with them. Thank you for your cooperation

Here is an update on a programme we were delighted to be part of; sending books to Malawi. Huge thanks to Carmel for coordinating and to all families and children who donated so generously. It is lovely to see our name associated with such a worthy cause. https://www.mic.ul.ie/news/2021/mic-proud-to-play-a-small-part-in-sending-thousands-of-books-to-malawi-as-part-of-MMCN%20project

We were so impressed by Michael’s natural flair for engineering and invention! Ms. Russell met him in the yard after school yesterday with his self designed and constructed car that really moved! He modified the wheels and we really admire this clever innovation! Keep it up Michael!

I sought clarification from the HSE around the apparent contradiction in their documents regarding siblings of children with symptoms and we have come to these guidelines: If your child develops symptoms in school, siblings who are apparently well will no longer need to go home with the sick child (as of 15/09/2021) If your child develops symptoms at home, we ask that you keep your other children home until a negative test is received. For those children who are self isolating as a result of a case in school, we ask that you send proof of your negative test to us by email (cns.iaswx@gmail.com) or Dojo to Ms. Russell

Please click on the link that applies to you. The first is if your child is a close contact. The second is if your child is not a close contact. Thank you

We can’t think of a better way to kick start the Active School year than with an exciting game of bench ball in the sunshine! Well done Rang 1/2!

Thank you to The Gorey Guardian for the lovely 1.5 page spread of photos of our junior infants. Check out those lovely smiles!

Look who Ms. Russell found on a class walk, investigating their new school surroundings. I am happy to report that all children are settling really well!
