Re: Self Defence Workshop

Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),

As part of our SPHE and wellbeing programme, we are introducing a self-defence workshop for third years this year. This initiative aims to promote life skills along with confidence and personal security awareness. The workshop will take place on Tuesday 28th March for 3A and 3B, and Friday 31st March for 3C and 3D. If for any reason you would like your daughter not to participate, please email me on aoife.crowley@holyfaithclontarf.com.

Yours Sincerely,

A Crowley

(Wellbeing and SPHE Co-ordinator)

Many parents of students with dyslexia struggle to know how to support the student at the secondary level as the challenges are different to those experienced at the primary level. This webinar, which takes place on Wednesday 15th March at 7:30pm, aims to give practical help and advice. Please register via the following link: https://tinyurl.com/ntrjnyk2

A reminder to parents that there will be no classes for students on Wednesday 8th March due to Staff In-Service.

There will be a talk for parents of Transition Year students on Tuesday 7th March at 7:30pm in the Assembly Hall.  There will be an outline of the Leaving Certificate programmes offerd by the school, subjects available in the school and how students can select their subjects for Leaving Certificate.  Students will have a similar talk later in the week and teachers from the various subject departments will meet with the year group.

Students who have expressed an interest and who play tennis competitively for a club have submitted their names for tomorrows trials, only those parents who receive a consent form on the app will be permitted to attend tomorrows trials.

Thank you.

Tennis trials for students will take place tomorrow, 2nd March, at Clontarf Lawn Tennis Club, Oulton Road at 11am.  Your daughter should bring a tennis racket. Thank you.

Congratulations to 2D who presented a cheque for €3,862 to Ms Lilian Hunt from St. Francis Hospice in Raheny. The money was raised by  2D's class calendar fundraiser . Ms Hunt spoke with the class about the services that St Francis Hospice offers and about the new building development that will see over 20 new, individual ensuite rooms built at the St Francis Raheny site. Congratulations to 2D and their CSPE teacher N.Daly. Well done to everyone involved!
