Latest news from our school
19th April 2024
Dear Parents/ Guardians,
The Primary 7 children’s final day is Friday June 21st 2024. We intend to have a
Leavers’ Assembly for the children at 945am after which they will then leave school for
the final time.
The next few weeks will be very busy for us all and I want to let you know what is
happening.
The following is a list of dates and information relating to the weeks ahead.
On Friday May 24th 2024 the children will attend the Belfast Activity Centre for their
final school trip. The cost is £29 per child which includes all activities and transport.
The children will have their Leavers’ Mass on Wednesday June 19th at 930am in
Greencastle Church.
We hope as many parents as possible will attend.
We have ordered Leavers’ Hoodies for the children to remind them of their time in our
school. The cost of the Hoodie is £20. Should you wish to purchase a Hoodie for your
child please send in payment as soon as possible.
I urge to please pay the balance for your child’s trip money by May 13th 2024.
Thank you for all your help and support.
Gerard Barrett
Principal.
This Thursday, 25 April, parents/guardians will receive the outcome of their Pre-School (Stage 1) or Primary 1 application for September 2024.
Applicants who applied online via EA Connect will receive an email on Thursday. If you do not receive an email, please check your junk folder. If you did not apply via EA Connect a letter will be sent to your home address.
For children yet to secure a Pre-school or P1 place, you will receive a letter or email from the Education Authority.
Please note, pre-school applicants of underage children and late deferrals will receive their outcome on 11 June 2024.
Parents who have a child with a Statement of Special Educational Needs awaiting placement will be updated by their SEN link officer or school/setting when a placement has been secured. This process may take a little longer in order to find the best placement for your child's needs.
