Home/school communication
Parents/guardians,
Home/school communication has always been very important in St Colman's. We pride ourselves in keeping all members of the school community informed in a variety of ways. Our communication is always to a very high standard.
Following the guidance from the Department of Education all communication will be via the following: school app, school website, email, Seesaw and telephone.
All letters and notices will be uploaded to the school letters section on the Parent Area of the website. This will enable us greatly in school to communicate quickly with you whilst also being mindful of the restrictions and guidance. This is a secure area of the website therefore parents/guardians must use the password which was issued in a letter on 6th August.
It is most important that parents/guardians download the school app if you have not already done so. The school app is used to notify you when a letter has been uploaded or to give a brief message.
To download this app
- visit your app store and search for 'Schools NI'
- choose allow and yes when asked about receiving notifications
- select Down and scroll to St Colman's PS
- click on the name of the school and this app will install immediately on your device.
The Department of Education has also issued guidance to limit and restrict the footfall in the school building. All visitors to the school must follow this directive. Parents/guardians are requested to remain outside the school gates in the morning and home time. Unfortunately, staff will be unable to have a conversation at the gate at these times.
Please contact the school office if and when you need to pass on a message or to arrange a telephone appointment with a member of staff. All appointments will be after the children have left the school building.

Thank you for your support, understanding and co-operation regarding home/school communication.
We look forward to keeping in touch with you during the school year.
