Dear Parents/Guardians,
Welcome back to the 2024/25 school year. I hope that the return to routine will be an enjoyable one for you and your child(ren). School will start for pupils on Wednesday, 28th September 2024. I am looking forward to meeting you all and seeing the happy faces in the yard at 9:50 am. For our new Junior Infants only, the first three days (Wednesday 28th – Friday 30th inclusive), will be shorter days with the children finishing at 12 pm.
The school calendar for the year is linked on our website for ease of access. Please note that the Dept. of Education have scheduled a day’s school closure on Wednesday, 25th September to facilitate staff training in the new Primary Mathematics Curriculum.
I am very excited to meet you all and be a part of this wonderful community. In the meantime, enjoy the last of the summer break!
Warmest Regards,
Julie Carroll
Principal,
St. Mary’s NS, Oldtown.
