Dear Parents and Students,

I hope you are enjoying the Easter break.

Please note that due to system updates, all students are required to turn on their laptops for at least one hour this week while connected to Wi-Fi. If this is not done, the laptop may not connect properly to the school Wi-Fi on Monday.

Thank you for your attention to this.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

As part of our whole-school approach to assessment, all 1st, 2nd and 5th Year students are receiving a continuous assessment report at Easter.

These reports are now available to view on Vsware.

Reports contain a grade which is based on continuous assessment of students’ work (e.g. tests, assignments, classwork, homework). The criteria for grades have been communicated to students by their individual subject teachers.

A teacher comment also appears on the report and is formative, focusing on how students are managing their learning. The comments may refer to such areas as steps that can be taken to improve learning and how to prepare for summer exams.

As we approach the final weeks of the school year and summer exams, the report is also designed to facilitate conversations between parents/guardians and students about how they are managing their learning and study.

Wishing you all an enjoyable Easter break.

Kind regards,
Suzanne Lea
Leader of Teaching and Learning

Our 5th Year students have been working incredibly hard on this week’s production of the Arthur Miller play All My Sons.

This evening is your last chance to catch the show, which starts at 7pm in the school concert hall.

All Loreto Foxrock students can attend for free. Tickets for family and friends are available from the main reception and cost just €5.

We hope to see a great turnout from our school community in support of the wonderful efforts of our talented students and staff.

An option to lease a brand new laptop for 5th years until June 2026 is available.

This cost of this lease is €450 payable in 5 * €90 termly instalments PLUS a refundable deposit of €150 which will be included in the first instalment. Once payment is made and the agreement is signed your daughter will receive the laptop after mid term.
