Dear Parents, Guardians, and Members of the COmmunity,

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to everyone who supported us in reopening the school on Tuesday after the devastating impact of Storm Éowyn. The local Fire Brigade, ESB, and Irish Water workers were instrumental in getting our school back online, and we are incredibly thankful for their tireless efforts.

A big thank you to our incredible staff—teachers, SNAs, our secretary Laura, and our caretaker Gerry—who showed such tremendous dedication. Many of them are coming to school from houses without electricity, yet they have continued to show up and support our students. It’s wonderful to see so many leaders on our staff willing to get stuck in and take the initiative when it’s needed most.

In the spirit of community, we would like to offer our support to anyone still without power. Our school doors are open to those who need to charge phones or other devices. We also have spare hot lunches available for anyone in need of a warm meal. If you’d like to avail of these, please contact either myself or Laura.
Thank you once again to everyone for your ongoing support.

Ní neart go cur le chéile.

Dara McAleer
Principal
