Back to school information

Final preparations are underway both at home and here at school for the new school year. Here is some important information to help with some of the preparations for you:

• School reopens for all children on Friday 30th August (P2-P7) from 9-12 noon. Transport will be available to and from school on this day. School will operate from normal times on Monday 2nd September. P1 children have a phased intake beginning Wednesday 25th August
• A PE order has been delivered to school. This order however is incomplete and we are awaiting further items to follow. It is planned to distribute the PE orders to children when they return to school. If there is any change in these arrangements we will notify you.
• If you are in receipt of a qualifying benefit your child(ren) may be eligible for free school meals and you may also receive assistance with the purchase of school uniforms. For more information contact the following website: www.eani.org/financial-help

We look forward to welcoming everyone back to school and to welcoming new children and staff to St Colman's. In the meantime enjoy these last few days of the summer holidays
