Open Evening
An Open Evening for prospective First Year students for September 2009 and their parents will take place from 7.00pm-9.00pm on Wednesday 30 January in Castleknock Community College. All Fifth Class children were given an invitation to this Open Evening earlier this week.

Parent/Teacher Meetings
Parent-Teacher Meetings will take place on 05 February. In line with Department procedure, First to Fifth Classes will finish school at 1.55pm on that day. While every effort was made to accommodate siblings on 05 February, this has not been possible due to the size of the school population. By now, most timetables have been issued by class teachers. Outstanding appointment times will follow early next week.

Birthdays
As per our School Booklet, we would ask that if your child is having a birthday party and inviting some classmates, that invitations be given out in the schoolyard and not in the classroom. In order to be sensitive to the feelings of children who are not being invited, perhaps you could discreetly give the invitation to the parent and not the child. Teachers are not permitted to distribute invitations. Please also note that sweets/cakes should not be sent into the class for distribution on your child's birthday.

Trócaire
If every family has not yet received a Trócaire box, please note that they are available from the Parish Church and from the school.

Lost Property
Lost Property is located inside the Blanchardstown Door on the right side of the building.

GAA Training
There will be no GAA training after school next Thursday, 31 January.
