Dear Parents/Guardians,

Our school concert will take place in the Parish Church Tuesday next, (20th) at 11.30a.m.  The front seats of each row will be reserved for the pupils so I ask you not to sit on reserved seats.  The pupils and teachers have worked very hard for this concert so we are all looking forward to a very enjoyable event.  The concert will finish around 12.30.

 Our school mass is on tomorrow, Friday at 9.30a.m. in the Parish Church.  Please ensure your child is in school on time that day as we will be going to the Church without delay.  This mass will be an occasion where family members can join in our Christmas Mass celebration.

It would be lovely to see extended family members attend this mass – grandparents – aunts – uncles – cousins.  All are very welcome.

4th Class are looking forward to performing for the residents in Glendale Nursing Home tomorrow, Friday 16th.

The St. Vincent de Paul society have kindly acknowledged the great amount collected at the recent sale – €1554.64.  The Society has asked that , if possible, we support their St. Stephen’s Day (Dec. 26th) 2k and 5k walk, run or jog in Brother Leo Park, Tullow.

Last day for purchasing Folens Chirstmas Annual is tomorrow, Friday 16th.

Ms. Murphy won’t be returning to Junior Infants after Christmas.  Their teacher will be Mrs. Madden who has been on family leave.  We thank Ms. Murphy for her hard work and dedication over the last four months and wish her well in her next position.

Christmas Holidays: School will finish at 12 noon on Thursday 22nd December and will reopen on Monday 9th January 2017.

On my own behalf and on behalf of the staff and Board of Management I would like to wish each one of you a happy and peaceful Christmas and sincere good wishes for the New Year.
