Welcome back to our third term! We have 8 full weeks and 4 partial weeks, with lots of activities and learning to come! We have our BIG BREAKFAST fundraiser, ACTIVE FLAG WEEK, musician workshops, Zumba Drumming and some cyber safety lessons coming our way. It will be a busy but fun term!

Dalkey Tidy Towns would be proud!

5th and 6th Class represented our lovely school yesterday at the Inaugural Youth National Spring Clean event! It was held in Dalkey village and attended by An Cathaoirleach Cllr Tom Murphy,  Cllr. Devlin, Cllr. Hanafin and Cllr. Fayne. 

RTÉ recorded the event and you can see our pupils featured on 'News2day' from Wednesday 21st March. Here is the link to copy into your browser:

We would appreciate all comments in writing, and you can email or write them to any class teacher, to Mrs. Kirwan or to Dee in the office.  

We can confirm that we are opening our doors at 08:20 on Monday 5th March! See you then :)

As directed by the Department of Education, our school will be closed on both Thursday and Friday this week. We hope you enjoy the snow safely! 

It's ready...our calendar for the next academic year of 2018 - 2019.
​
All schools have the same Hallowe'en, Christmas and Bank Holiday Mondays, but other dates can vary.
The dates listed here are St. Patrick's, from August 2018 to June 2019! 

We are busy exploring our school vision this year! School vision refers to a preferred future state of a school! If you would like to participate, please see the email sent to all families, or contact the office for further details!!

On Friday 26th, we had over 70 family members visit our lovely school! We had grannies, grampas, siblings, parents, and even a granny who used to teach at the school herself - great to see you back, Sally!

Well done to Ms. Newton, for organising the timetable with the teachers, the PTA for the afternoon tea and hall set-up, and to the pupils for their wonderful singing to end the day. We were so thrilled to see lots of hugs and smiling faces throughout the day, and we managed to take happy family photos for all visitors! 

Please check out your child's schoolbag...you might find the photo hiding inside! You can also see some pictures in our gallery!
