School Sponsored Walk - "iWalk for iPads"

This week the children will receive a sponsorship form for the School Sponsored Walk.

You may have heard your children mention how they have used iPads in school to play educational games or for research purposes. The Parents Association contributed to the funding of these iPads and a multiple docking station last year. The iPads have been hugely successful, so much so, that the Board of Management would like to purchase another class set. 

To facilitate the purchase of the iPads, we are hosting an “iWalk for iPads” Sponsored Walk.

The children will walk from the school on Thursday 16th June (time to be confirmed) to Tír na nÓg and will complete a circle of the park. We would love to invite any parents who are around at that time to line the route in the park and support the children as they walk.

Whilst all the children will complete the walk, there is no obligation on any child to complete a sponsorship form. If a family wants to complete one form per family rather than per child, that is perfectly fine. Completed forms and monies raised should be handed to the class teacher on or before 16th June.

We hope that the children have fun on their walk and that they and their younger siblings will reap the benefits of their efforts in the coming school years.
