Halloween Disco

A big thank you to the parent support group and all those who helped in any way to make the Halloween disco such a success. We had probably our biggest crowd ever in the Parochial hall enjoying the music and party games. The costumes were fantastic and we had prizes galore for the children and parents.

Road Safety


Due to the increase in pupil numbers in the school, home time continues to be a very busy time around the front of the school. Cars should be parked on the school side of the road. This prevents traffic build up and allows the children to walk up the footpath home. Please inform those who are picking your child up from school about this. We really appreciate your cooperation in this matter.

Parent Teacher Meetings


The children will be going home from school at 11 O’clock on Wednesday 10th of November to facilitate the parent teacher meetings. Please ensure that your child has a lift home at that time. We will send out a date and time of your meeting. If this time is not suitable please contact the school office and another time will be arranged.
