We very much look forward to welcoming our new 1st Years tomorrow (8.30 - 11.30am) for what will be the start of a very exciting new chapter in their education. As restrictions are in place on the school campus, we would ask that the following entrance protocols be adhered to tomorrow morning. 1. We are asking that students, where possible and practical, walk to school or cycle to school. In the case that it is not possible and practical and parents are dropping students off by car, then a set down only facility will be in place inside the front gate. There will be no parking. Parents are asked not to get out of their vehicles. Parents should also be aware that there are strict visitor protocols in place with advance appointments required to enter the building. 2. Students should make their way to the Sports Hall and enter through the main door. Staff will be on hand to inform the students where to go. 3. Students will then sign in, pick up their journals and be escorted to their base rooms, in small pods, by a member of our 6th Year Leadership Team. 4. Students do not need to bring in any books or copies, however, students should bring in a pen to write in their new journals. 5. Students should bring a snack for break time and a small bag to bring food waste home. 6. Students should observe the hand hygiene protocols, sanitise and wear a face covering/mask. 7. Students should also bring a Ziploc bag to place their face covering/mask into when not in use. Once the students arrive in their base room they will be welcomed by their Year Team and the beginning of the induction programme will begin. All staff and students of Our Lady's wish our new 1st Years the very best for the year ahead! A message from your 6th Year councillors: youtu.be/-2yApMqW2Zk

Today marked a much anticipated occasion in OLS ... after a very long absence, we had a very welcome infusion of youth, energy and laughter in the form of our oldest and youngest students! First of all today, Ms Kinsella and Ms O' Sullivan welcomed the 6th Year leaders for leadership training, who in turn later welcomed the incoming 1st Years for a tour around the school. The 6th Years answered many questions about life in OLS and did their best to give our 1st Years a little flavour of what it's like here. Our students rose to the new Covid challenges superbly, arriving on time and as requested in terms of accessing the building, with masks and social distancing as directed. Well done to all! Staff will be busy planning over the coming days for the return of the full student body next week!

We have an eager troop of 6th Year leaders ready to meet the 1st Years at their designated slot tomorrow for a tour of the school and some Q & As about life at OLS. This will give our incoming students a chance to see how the building is set up for them to start school next week. 1st Years don't need to wear their uniform tomorrow as it is a short visit. Students must wear a mask. When you arrive, use the pedestrian entrance down by the bus stop on Templeogue Road (new entrance to facilitate building at usual entrance), walk up the path and you will be met there at the first building on your left (the Sports Hall) by friendly 6th Years who will tell you exactly what to do next! You will need to put your mask on before you enter the Sports Hall so have it ready in a zip lock bag in your pocket. Bring a pen to sign in and have a hand sanitiser (also supplied in school but best to have a personal supply too). Time slots: 12:00 - 12:30 Students with surnames beginning with A-B 12:20 - 12:50 Students with surnames beginning with C-E 12:40 -13:10 Students with surnames beginning with F-L 13:00 - 13:30 Students with surnames beginning with M-O 13:20 - 13:50 Students with surnames beginning with P-Z
