Book Rental Costs for 2019/20

Posted by James Mernin.

The Board of Management has raised the cost of the book rental fees again this year to cover the cost of school books, photocopying, art and crafts. 
Despite raising the fees last year there was still a shortfall. In consultation with the Parents Association the Board of Management will this year raise the cost of book rental as per the revised schedule:

  • First Child: €140


  • Two Children: €270 (€140 + €130)


  • Three Children: €390 (€140 + €130 + €120)


Those parents who wish to purchase their own books separate to the scheme should inform the office but will still have to pay costs associated with reading resources, art, craft and photocopying of €50.

All payments can be made in instalments to the school office.

Rang 6 reach an All-Ireland Final

Posted by James Mernin.

Congratulations to Sixth class and Múinteoir Ben who have won through to the final of the All-Ireland school’s drama competition in Mullingar on April the 8th next. Their play “Síofrógacht” was first performed at the school christmas concerts but since then they have travelled to Carlow, Ring and Fermoy with it.
Great acting and drumming have won them plaudits and prizes. Our picture shows Josh, a sixth class pupil, accepting a prize for best actor at the competition held in Ring recently. Best of luck in Mullingar!

Team Hope, “Make a Wish” and St. Vincent de Paul

Posted by James Mernin.

Sixth class have been busy gathering money for three charities. “We asked everyone to bring in shoe boxes with nice things like sweets and toys in them. The boxes have been sent on to places like Rumania and Africa”, says Aimí from Rang 6. We also had a cake and book sale last month and raised money for “Make a Wish” and the St. Vincent de Paul.

Thanks to all who donated.
