We ask that all parents be cautious as the Coronavirus continues to spread in Ireland, with a number of new cases being confirmed in the country. Please ensure your children know how to wash their hands correctly.

Teachers will continue to conduct lessons on this. Soap and water is sufficient. Ensure your children wash their hands well before coming to school.

They will be reminded regularly throughout the school day to wash their hands. Please remind them to cough/sneeze into their elbow, not their hands.

If your child or someone your child has been in close contact with displays symptoms, please keep your child at home and seek medical advice. Staff are being asked to do the same. If you have travelled from an affected area, please self isolate. The Department of Health have advised that no unnecessary travel to an affected area be undertaken.

Thank you for your support in this matter.
