Dear Parents/Guardians, Just a quick update regarding our school skiing trip to Italy during St. Patrick’s weekend in March 2023. The second installment is now due. The following payments are to be made to Halsbury Travel LTD. 1. €200 ​​Non-Refundable deposit 2. €250​​ 2nd installment NOW DUE 3. €485​​ before the 30th of November 2022 €935​​Total payment to Halsbury Travel 4. €15​​To be given to Mr Walsh in the school a week before travel. This is for transfers to and from the airport in Ireland. If parents/Guardians want, they can pay the full amount in one €935 installment to Halsbury. Payment Details for Halsbury: Bank Name: ​​Natwest IBAN:​​​GB80NWBK60720904285077 BIC:​​​NWBKGB2L PLEASE NOTE - The IBAN for the 2nd installment remains the same as the 1st (as above). Previously we had thought there may have been a new IBAN provided for the 2nd installment but that is no longer the case. When making payment to Halsbury, please use your son’s name and Portlaoise is used as a reference e.g. Joe Blogs, Portlaoise. Don’t use Parent/Guardians name as a reference as this can lead to a lot of confusion identifying individual payments made for your son. If you have any questions or queries in relation to the trip, please feel free to contact the school, leave your name and number and I’ll get back to you at the earliest convenience. Kind Regards James Walsh jwalsh@portlaoisecbs.com
Calendar for Parents for the 2022-23 School Year-please note date of Open Night

We have come to the end of a really good year! So many fun activities took place, in addition to the return to face to face learning and teaching. We began many new initiatives and the enthusiasm for this activity was obvious. At last we were able to appreciate being able to meet. travel, run sporting events, look at each other properly and speak without masks, During the last 2 years I really had no idea what kind of predictions to make as regards parent teacher meetings or anything else. This year I think I am safe to say that the Calendar presented to you here will be the Calendar we will follow for the Parent Teacher Meetings, Open Night, Mock Exams, other in house exams, etc. The days on which each class group starts back in August are here and in particular the first few days for the new 1st years are also here. So you can plan your summer's coming and going in late August around those days. It will also be put up in the App Calendar and on VSware, but I think it is nice to have it all on one page to print off and put up someplace at home to take a quick look at. I wish you all a relaxing and memorable summer - hopefully the weather picks up soon! Take care and stay safe.

Our LC and JC Exams began this morning without incident, thank God. But none of us ever know what is around the corner - whether to ourselves or to a close family member. In the event of either a Close Family Bereavement or Serious Medical Condition occurring for your son, the SEC Circular below, S34/22, provides detailed information about the criteria, application for deferred exams, limitations, supports, eligibility and dates of the exams themselves. If, God forbid, your son finds himself in this situation please read this circular very carefully to inform you of what is possible or not. An Addendum to this SEC Circular, 34/22, provides additional information more related to absences related to contracting Covid-19. Please find this below. Hopefully your son's exams will pass by without incident or worry, but at least you can see there is are procedures to follow. I have also posted an extract from the 2022 LC Candidate Information Guide about deferred exams in the following notification.
