PETER PAN:   Now that the dust has settled we can look back proudly on last week’s panto.  People have been very complimentary about the performances and our thanks to everyone who contributed in any way to making the shows so enjoyable.  To Mrs. Connolly, Ann Sourke and Bernie Dunne we say a huge “Thank You” !

SPOT PRIZES:  Thanks to everyone who donated spot prizes for the panto raffle.

DVDOrders are now being taken before Christmas for delivery in the New Year.  The price is – one night – €10; two nights – €15 (two nights – single case).  Contact the school office.  Payment with order please.

TIN WHISTLE CONCERT:  Congratulations to Ms. Brennan and all her whistlers (and dancers) who entertained us so well yesterday.  It was a lovely occasion and has really put us in the Christmas mood!

SCHOOL CALENDAR:  Now on sale at the school office and Centra.  Price €7.  This is a nice keepsake and looking back at previous calendars it is interesting to note how much the children have changed in those 3/4 years.  Thanks to everyone who supported our calendar by placing an advertisement for their business.

NATIVITY/CRIB VISIT:  Children from all classes visited the church last Friday to take part in the nativity story.  Thanks to Margaret Brennan for all her help and well done to the children from the senior classes who “buddied up” for the trip with children from the junior classes.

NO UNIFORM / CHRISTMAS CLOTHING DAY:  A reminder that tomorrow (Thursday) is a no uniform day.  Contribution – €2 per child or €3 per family.  Funds raised will go to our Parents’ Association to cover the costs of various activities.

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS:  School closes tomorrow (Thursday) at 12.30 pm. (infants available from 12.20).  This is a very busy “few minutes” as all the children will be leaving school at the same time.  Please avoid double parking and use the overflow car-park in the junior play area.  (Reverse in – drive out).

 
Happy Christmas
