Bratacha Náisiúnta
Tá fáilte rompu ar shaoirí náisiúnta. D’ardaíomar brat na hIorua ar an 17 Bealtaine, Lá an Bhunreachta, ag ceiliúradh bhunreacht 1814 na tíre sin. Bheimís an-sásta laethanta náisúnta eile de phobal na scoile a cheiliúradh.
We celebrated Norway’s National Constitution Day on May 17th by raising the Norwegian flag. We would be glad to celebrate other national days from our school community. Please, let us know.
Cúrsaí Tráchta
Táímid an-buíoch don iarracht leanúnach le cúrsaí tráchta. Aithníonn gach éinne an dul mór chun cinn i mbliana. Buíochas speisialta leis an tuismitheoirí a chabhraíonn leis na cóin maidin is tráthnóna. Ní bheidh sé indéanta leanúint ar aghaidh an bhliain seo chughainn gan breis cabhrach. Labhair le haon mhaor má tá tú sásta cabhrú. Luaigh tuismitheoir linn gur ar éigean ar seachnaíodh drochthimpist cúpla uair le déanaí nuair a oscalaíodh doras ar an taobh amuigh chun páistí a scaoileadh amach as gluaisteán ar maidin agus páistí eile ag gabháil an bhealaigh ar rothair. Bímis cúramach, le bhur dtoil.
We’re all really grateful for the continuing efforts with traffic management. Everyone recognises the huge improvement this year. It won’t be possible to continue next year without extra help. You can talk to any one of the parents who are helping if you, too, can help. A parent has witnessed two near accidents when outside car doors were opened as pupils were cycling by in the morning. Let’s all be careful, please.
Gaelscoil Laighean
Is cosúil go bhfuil fórsaí an dorchadais dírithe ar Ghaelscoil Laighean leis an nuacht go bhfuil an scoil le bogadh go láthair mhí-oiriúnach in Ascaill Eblana, Dún Laoghaire. Is é Baile an Bhóthair/ An Charraig Dhubh abhanntrach oifigiúil na scoile. Tá an foirgneamh ina bhfuil siad i nGráinseach an Déin le tabhairt do scoile eile. Tá feachtas poiblíochta agus polaitiúil ar siúl ag pobal Ghaelscoil Laighean agus Cothrom na Féinne á lorg acu. Bheimís buíoch dá bhféadfadh pobal Scoil Lorcáin tacú lenár n-iarmhúinteoirí Aoife Ní Scolaí agus Caitríona Magner agus le pobal Gaelach Ghaelscoil Laighean ina n-iarrachtaí.
The forces of darkness seem to be conspiring against our sister school Gaelscoil Laighean where Aoife Ní Scolaí and Caitríona Magner are working with a small community to establish another vibrant Gaelscoil. They have been directed to move from Dean’s Grange to a totally unsuitable building in Eblana Ave, Dún Laoghaire. Their current home is to be given to another school. Gaelscoil Laighean – whose catchment area is Blackrock/ Booterstown – have had to resort to a publicity/ political campaign to secure fair play from the Department of Education. We would appreciate any support which can be given by our community.

Feighlí Scoile
Ní raibh aon iarratas againn ó phobal na scoile don phost mar fheighlí. Bheimís buíoch, ar sin, dá gcrochfaí an fógra seo thíos ar aon chláracah fógraí nó fóra oiriúnacha.
We’ve had no applications for our school caretaker role from the school community so we would like to cast our net wider. We’d appreciate it if the fógra below was posted on a suitable local fora.
Fógra
Tá feighlí nua scoile á lorg ag Scoil Lorcáin, Baile na Manach le dul i mbun oibre ón 1 Lúnasa 2021. Beidh an scála pá ceangailte le Scála Pá na Roinne Oideachais le haghaidh Feighlithe Scoile.

Cearnóg Belgrave
Chuir Cumann Áitritheoirí na Cearnóige in iúl dúinn go bhfuil rialacháin pháirceála i bhfeidhm ar an gcosán ar an taobh ó thuaidh (taobh na mara) den Chearnóg. Is cosúil gur tionscnamh príobháideach é seo. Tá go leor gluaisteán feicthe clampaithe againn le seachtain anuas. Gach seans go gclampálfar tú, ag aon am, má bhíonn aon chuid ded’ ghluaisteán in airde ar an gcosán gairbhéil.
Belgrave Square Res Ass have informed us that parking controls have been introduced on the gravel path on the northern (seaward) side of the Square. This appears to be a private, rather than a county council, initiative. We have seen a lot of clars clamped there in the last week. You may be clamped at any time if you are fully or partially parked on the path.
Cearnóg Eaton
Deir áitritheoirí Chearnóg Eataon, ar leo an chearnóg féin, nár cheart do ghrúpaí móra bheith ag bailiú sa pháirc agus, má bhíonn tuismitheoirí sa pháirc lena bpáistí bheith cinnte go dtugann siad a gcuid bruscair abhaile leo agus a chinntiú nach ndéantar aon dochar do na plandaí.
The residents of Eaton Square, who own the square itself, say that large groups should not gather in the square and that if parents are in the square with their children to be sure to bring your rubbish with you and to ensure that no damage is done to the plants.

Fill Arís (sliocht)
Ní dual do neach a thigh ná a threabh a thréigean.
Téir faobhar na faille siar tráthnóna gréine go Corca Dhuibhne,
Is chífir thiar ag bun na spéire ag ráthaíocht ann
An Uimhir Dhé, is an Modh Foshuiteach,
Is an tuiseal gairmeach ar bhéalaibh daoine:
Sin é do dhoras,
Dún Chaoin fé sholas an tráthnóna,
Buail is osclófar
D’intinn féin is do chló ceart.
(It is not natural for anyone to abandon his house or his tribe.
On a sunlit evening take the cliff road out to Corca
Dhuibhne,
and out on the horizon you will see shoaling there
the Dual Number, and the Subjunctive Mood,
and the vocative case on people’s mouths:
that is your door,
Dun Chaoin in the evening light,
knock and there will be opened
your own mind and your right shape.)
