Le Chéile Day 2021 - Drop Everything and Pray
Created : 25 Mar 2021, 5:41 PM
Archived : 26 May 2021, 12:00 AM
Tomorrow, the 26th of March, marks the annual Le Chéile Day. In celebration of this, Le Chéile has organised a 'Drop Everything and Pray' initiative which invites all 74 Le Chéile Schools to join together virtually at 10:00 am tomorrow for a short prayer service. The prayer service will take less than 15 minutes and will conclude with the virtual student choir (which some of our own students have been involved in) singing the Le Chéile hymn.
It is the hope that 35,000+ Le Chéile students around the country would pause to pray and reflect together at this time, creating a sense of unity.
If you wish to join us at 10:00am tomorrow, you can do so by clicking the link below.

Important information for 6th years

Dear students and parents/guardians,
as you know, the Candidate Self Service Portal (CSSP) is currently closed and students can not access or alter the entries they made ahead of its closure on March 16th. In the guide sent to you on 9th March, advice was given for students to keep their options open pending the release of further changes being made to examination papers which were published and sent to you on March 23rd.
It is possible that since students made their entries on the CSSP that they have changed their mind, either to not sit an examination or to sit an examination.
Given that oral interviews will take place over the Easter holidays and there will be no other opportunity to complete an interview it is essential that we know exactly who wishes to be facilitated to complete an interview.
Therefore, if a student registered to sit the examination in Irish, French, German, Spanish, Japanese or Russian and now wishes to withdraw from this they (if 18 or over, if under 18 a parent please) should email me to state that they are withdrawing from the examination in whatever subject applies.
If a student did not register to sit an examination in Irish, French, German, Spanish, Japanese or Russian and now wishes to, they should email me immediately so that arrangements can be made to accommodate an oral interview for them.
In both cases please email joeleonard@cpckilcullen.com
When the CSSP opens again in late April/early May students will be able to adjust their selections as necessary to reflect this.
Please note that the SEC updated their guidance yesterday evening around the oral interviews and face masks are compulsory for students and teachers throughout the interview.
The dates confirmed for the orals so far are:
French/German 29th and 30th March
Japanese 7th April
Irish 8th April
Kind regards

Dear students and parents/guardians,
as you know the student portal closed last week but the information entered here will not be available to schools in a timely fashion to prepare for the oral interviews during Easter holidays.
It is necessary to put a timetable and schedule in place and in order to do that we need to know who is sitting the examinations in the language subjects, in particular, urgently.
Please complete this form (for all subjects) so that we can plan accordingly. Parents/Guardians please ensure your son/daughter completes this form today.
