Parents Association AGM
Many thanks to all those parents who attended the Parents Association AGM, held on October 15th
2014. We will endeavour this year to reduce the pressure on parents and as such we have five events
this year.
Events
Friday 12th December Movie night with Xmas Raffle at 5pm
Friday 30th January Quiz Night
Sunday 15th February Valentine Cake Sale
Sunday 22nd March School Walk
Sunday 24th May School Fete
These events are fun occasions to give an opportunity to socialise as a school community and to
raise extra funds for the school. Please note the dates and try to support the school community if
you can.
Christmas
The school carol service 17th December at 7pm is always a wonderful occasion and helps everyone
join in the Christmas spirit.
Please note school will close at 12 Noon on Friday 19th December and reopens Monday 5th January.
First Communion
First communion will be held on Saturday the 9th May. It is a lovely family event. We are asking for
the support of 3rd class parents to help out this year, as they have been through the process and know
what is involved.
New Security Measures
For the safety of our children in the school, after 9.30 am all doors are locked. If you need access
please press buzzer located on the front door with wheelchair access. Someone will come and help.
Fundraising
Many thanks to Eileen Murray, Declan Furlong and Mary Casey who raised more than €2500
collectively. A wonderful effort and gift to the children of St Finians.
