Child Safety
In the interests of children's safety, please drive with care and only park in the designated areas when collecting/dropping off children - specifically no parking on double yellow lines or yellow boxes, and no stopping in front of the school gates. Please encourage your child to walk on the pavements at all times and cross the road carefully with the lollipop ladies. |

P.T.A. AGM 2022-2023: TBD Scroll down to see the equipment and extra resources the PTA have funded in our school each year.

Voluntary contributions 2021-22
It was agreed at the AGM that the amount of the voluntary contribution should remain at an amount up to €40 per family.
The PTA fully appreciate that these are very difficult times financially for many and ask that families contribute whatever they can afford.
The most effective way to make a contribution is to send it directly to the school. Remember to fill in the relevant details on the form sent home with your child and return it with your contribution at your earliest convenience.
