Adverse Weather ConditionsSchool closure will be the last resort and only in case of extreme circumstances.
Every effort will be made to keep the school open at all times but the safety and welfare of the pupils, staff and parents will be paramount in making any decision. Assume the school is open unless you get an official text from the school mobile informing details of school closure. A copy of the Emergency Closures / Snow Policy was sent home to all parents. Please let the school know if you did not receive a copy. Any details regarding adverse weather conditions will be displayed on our Facebook Page, the Home Page of the school website and a text will be sent to parents. Please ensure the school has your up-to-date contact details. |
We communicate with parents in the following ways
which enables them to stay connected and informed about their child's education:

Please inform the school of any changes in your contact details.
It is very important that we have an up-to-date contact number for every child in the school. Details on any school closure during adverse weather is particularly helpful for parents. The school mobile phone will be used to text parents. We will be able to keep in touch with parents only if contact details are up to date! If you need to amend your details, please inform the school as soon as possible. |

The school facilitates parents and children by making rooms available for activities outside of school hours conducted by private individuals who are Independent Contractors. These activities are not part of the school curriculum and are not regulated by the school which only provides facilities to enable these independent contractors and parents to make arrangements between themselves.
Parents discharge any fees payable directly to the independent contractor who is responsible for all aspects of the service provided. Contractors have their own insurance. While the school makes every effort to facilitate all parties, neither the Board of Management of the school nor the trustees of the Parish can accept any liability whatsoever for any matter arising in connection with such activities or in neglect or default of any such independent contractor whatsoever.
