Tracksuits, polo-shirts, ties and school crests are available to order on Aladdin Connect. Items ordered during the school year will be delivered to classes every Monday. This shop is run by volunteer parents. We thank them for their ongoing work.

There will be 3 yard areas this year. Top Yard, Main Yard and Back Yard. Yard duty is completed by each teacher and the rota is distributed by Rebecca McGreal. SNA yard duty is organised by Aoife Behan and Christine and distributed by same.
If any child needs first aid they go the designated first aid area in the foyer and First Aid is administered. All injuries are recorded in the first aid book. Class teachers are informed of ALL incidents. Parents/guardians are to be informed of all head injuries, however minor.
