Courses for parents

A quick update on courses that are ongoing and still have places and above all are free! Yoga is continuing every Wednesday at 9:15 and Craft is continuing every Thursday at 9:15, both in the Parents room.

2 new courses will be put in place if there is sufficient interest. The first course is 1st Aid. The second course is Healthy Food Made Easy.

If parents would like more information contact Niall. A note has been sent home with your child, please fill out the slip and return it as soon as possible.

Defibrillators

The Parent's Association organised a bag packing day in Dunnes Stores, Ongar to raise money for defibrillators for both the Junior and Senior Schools.  It was a great success, and all involved enjoyed taking part. 

We raised €1379, so we can now proceed with the purchase of the defibrillators. 

Once we have purchased a defibrillator we will train staff members. 

Thank you to all the teachers, parents and children who helped.

Irish Course

An Irish course is starting on MONDAY 25th FEBRUARY at 9:15 in the Parent's room.
On the note your child brought home, please put down areas that you would like covered.
This course is designed to help parents with their children's homework and to learn a few phrases.
