Nuachtlitreacha 2023 – 2023
NL Meán Fómhair 2022
Fáilte ar ais. Beidh sé go hiontach gach duine a fheiscint amárach. Cuirimis an Ghaeilge chun cinn ón tús, le bhur dtoil.
Welcome back. It will be great to see everyone tomorrow. Let us all do our bit by speaking as much Irish as we can in and around the school.
Go raibh maith agaibh.
Aladdin agus teachtaireachtaí
Beimid ag baint úsáide as an gCóras bogearraí Aladdin chun teachtaireachtaí a sheoladh idir an scoil agus an baile i mbliana. Ní bheidh na cuntais ríomhphostanna ranga in úsáid mar sin.
We be using our Aladdin software to enable home/school communication from now on. We won’t, therefore, be using the class emails which we introduces at the beginning of covid.
Cúrsaí Páirceála is Tráchta
Ná dearmad an Córas aon-treo ar Chearnóg Eaton,isteach taobh na Carraige Duibhe agus amach taobh Bhaile na Manach. Ní thiománaimid síos ná suas thar an scoil. Cruthaíonn sé seo spás sábháilte trasnaithe do na páistí. Cuimhnigh nach bhfuilimid ag páircéail ar na línte dúbalta buí in aice leis an scoil. Is seantuismitheoirí is mó, ar chúis amháin nó eile, nach gcloíann leis na treoirlínte seo.
Traffic and parking behaviour was excellent last year.Remember our one way system for Eaton Square, in at the Blackrock side and exit by the Monkstown side. We don’t drive up or down past the school. This creates a safe crossing area for the children. For whatever reason, grandparents seem to have the greatest problem adhering to the above.
Bailiú páiste to luath
Má tá páiste le bailiú go luath agat is gá dul chun na hoifige ag Príomhdhoras na Scoile agus labhairt leis an Rúnaí. Ní ceart teacht isteach aon doras eile, fiú má tá sé ar oscailt.
If you’re collecting a child early you should come to the main door and talk to Caitríona an Rúnaí. You shouldn’t come in any other door, even if it’s open.
Cumann na mBunscol
Traenáil agus triallacha peile do chailíní agus do bhuachaillí rang 5 agus 6 Máirt, Céadaoin agus Déardaoin seo chughainn 6-8 Meán Fómhair.

Clárú do Mheán Fómhair 2023
Bhí ar gach scoil sa stát polasaí nua iontrála a chur i bhfeidhm dhá bhliain ó shin. Tá ár bpolasí nua cláraithe ar an suíomh idirlín. Gné lárnach de pholasaí gach scoil is ea nach bhfuil Liosta Feithimh ann a thuilleadh. Ní féidir clárú ach ar feadh tréimhse 3 seachtaine a thosaíonn 1 Deireadh Fómhair an bhliain sular mhaith leat go bhfreastalódh do pháiste ar an scoil. Léigh an polasaí go cúramach, má bhaineann sé leat. Má chláraigh tú páiste roimh 1/2/2020 beidh forálacha an tseanPholasaí i bhfeidhm maidir le Liosta Iarratais. Beidh foirmeacha iarratais do 9.23 amháin ar fáil ón Luan 26/9/22. Léigh an polasaí go cúramach.
Every school in the state introduced a new enrollment policy two years ago. Our policy is on the website. An essential feature of every policy is that there are no more Waiting Lists. Applications can only be accepted for a 3 week period starting 1st October prior to the September when you would like your child to start. If you don’t apply within that period your application will go to the bottom of the list, no matter what category you are in. Read the policy carefully if this concerns you. Applications received prior to 1/2/20 will be placed on Lists of Applicants under the previous policy. Enrolment forms for 9/23 only will be available from Monday 26/9/22. Read the policy, please.
Polasaí Nua Iontrála ag Coláiste Íosagáin agus Coláiste Eoin
Má tá do pháiste i Rang 6 agus fonn ort go rachadh sí/sé go C Eoin/Íosagáin is ceart féachaint ar an bPolasaí nua Iontrála ar an suíomh acu. Tá tréimhse ghearr i nDeireadh Fómhair le do pháiste a chláru don bhliain seo chughainn.
If your child is in Rang 6 and you want her/him to go to C Íosagáin/Eoin, it’s vital to read their new enrolment policies on their website. There is an enrolment window in October, during which you must enrol your child.
As-láithreacht
Is ceart teachtaireacht a chur chuig an múinteoir nuair a bhíonn páiste as láthair. Is gá dúinn cuntas a choimeád ar chúiseanna as-láithreachta.
An message should be sent to the class teacher in case of pupil absence, please. We have to record reasons for absences. Thank you.
Cótaí ag gach páiste
Beidh na páistí ag dul amach go dtí an clós gach lá. Bíodh cóta ag do pháiste, ldt, má tá aon bhaol báistí.
The pupils will be going to the yard every day, weather permitting or not. Please make sure they have a coat if there is any chance of rain.
Riachtanais Leighis
Má tá riachtanais leighis ag do pháiste a chur tú in iúl dúinn cheana agus nach raibh Niamh Uí Chroidheáin ag caint leat le seachtain anuas, déan teagmháil linn chun sonraí an riachtanais a dhearbhú arís, ldt. Má tá riachtanas leighis nua ag do pháiste, bí i dteagmháíl linn, chomh maith.
If you notified us previously of a medical need for your child and Niamh Uí Chroidheáin hasn’t been talking to you in the last week, please make contact with us to confirm the details of the need. If your child has a new medical need, please, contact us , also.
Aifreann Gaeilge
Beidh a tAifreann Gaeilge ag tosú arís i nDún Laoghaire ar an Domhnach beag seo 4/9 ag 10.00 rn. Is ag an aifreann seo a bhíonn seans ag na daltaí atá ag déanamh an Chéad Chomaoineach tabhairt faoi gclár ullmhúcháin ‘Déan é seo i gcuimhne ormsa.’
The Irish mass recommences this Sunday in Dún Laoghaire 10.00 am. It’s as part of this mass, starting in October, that the children who are doing First Communion get a chance to partake in the ‘Do this in memory of me’ programme.

Dátaí Scrúdaithe Dhroim Conrach
Beidh Scrúdaithe Dhroim Conradh á reachtáil againn do Rang 2, 4, 6 15 – 26 Bealtaine 2023. Is fearr gan laethanta saoire a eagrú le linn na tréimhse seo más suim leat go ndéanfadh do pháiste na scrúdaithe. Níl acmhainn againn iad a dhéanamh leis na páistí a chailleann iad.
We’ll be doing the Drumcondra Tests for Rang 2, 4, 6 15 – 26 May. Better avoid taking holidays in this period if you want your child to take part in the tests. We don’t have the resources to do them again for the pupils who miss out.

Childminder needed, Blackrock
Hi. We are a friendly, professional couple who work outside the home. We are looking for a caring, reliable minder to pick up our and 5 year old boy from primary school in Monkstown at 13:15pm and our 3 year old girl from Montessori in Stillorgan at 3:30 and mind them until 5:15 Tuesdays and Fridays. Mondays too if required. Some flexibility around days/ hours. If additional hours are required please do still get in contact. Full drivers licence required to drive own car/ our car.
Our children are cheerful, happy kids. A non-smoker is required. We would ideally like the ´minding´ to be done in our home. We would ideally like to find someone who will stay with us long term but if not, until June. If the school term only suits, that´s fine too.
Please get in contact if this sounds of interest to you: Eibhlín 086-1788708

Tús na Bliana
Tá tús breá curtha againn leis an mbliain scoile. Go raibh maith agaibh go léir as an tacaíocht ar fad. Imreoidh na foirne peile a gcéad chluichí an tseachtain seo. Tosóidh na ranganna iarscoile agus an Grúpa Ceoil. Tionólfaidh Cumann na dTuismitheoirí a gcéad chruinniú coiste den bhliain faoin gCathaoirleach nua Cathy Ní Riain Goss. Tosóidh na Naíonáin Shóisireacha ag fanacht ar scoil go dtí 1.15 in ón gCéadaoin ar aghaidh. Is féidir teacht isteach sa chlós ó 8.20 agus seasamh i líne. Is gá go thuismitheoirí fanacht le Naionáin, agus Rang 1 más gá, go dtí go mbailíonn na múinteoirí an rang ag 8.35 rn. Bhí gach rud go maith go dtí seo, buíochas libh.
We have had a grand start to the school year. Thank you all for the support. The afterschool classes will start this week and the football teams will play their first matches. Our Grúpa Ceoil will get going, too. Our parents’ committee Cumann na dTuismitheoirí will hold their first meeting of the year. The Naíonáin Shóisireacha will stay in school until 1.15 pm from Wednesday. Children are welcome in to the school yard from 8.20 am and are expected to line up. Infants, and Rang 1 to a degree, need to be supervised until the teachers collect the classes at 8.35 am. Everything has worked smoothly, so far, thank you.
Gaeilge
Reachtálfar daonáireamh náistiúnta an bhliain seo chughainn. Bíonn ceist i ngach daonáireamh maidir le labhairt na Gaeilge lasmuigh den chóras oideachais ar bhonn laethúil/ seachtainiúil. Nárbh iontach dá bhféadfaimisne – pobal Scoil Lorcáin – an cheist sin a fhreagairt go dearfach agus cur le líon Gaeilgeoirí laethúla/ seachtainiúla na tíre.
In next year’s National Census there will again be a question re the speaking of Irish on a daily/ weekly basis outside of the education system. It would be great if our Scoil Lorcáin community could provide a high number of honest positive answers and help boost the profile of the language. Now might be the time to start – Gaeilge ag am bricfeasta nó am dinnéir aon duine?
Roald Dahl
Déanfaimid céiliúradh ar Lá Roald Dahl Dé Máirt 13 Meán Fómhair. Beidh séisiúin léitheoireachta Roald Dahl ar siúl sna ranganna, chomh maith le plé agus ealaín bunaithe ar shathaoir an údáir cháiliúil. Fáilte roimh na daltaí buí a chaitheamh ar an lá in ómós de Roald Dahl.
We’ll mark Roald Dahl day with readings in Irish and English in all classes. Pupils are welcome to wear yellow clothes if they wish.
Árachas Scoile
Tá gach dalta sa scoil faoi áracha 24 uair le Allianz. Breis eolais https://www.allianz.ie/products/schools/pupil-personal-accident/Cover-Information/primary-schools.html.
We have arranged 24-hour insurance cover with Allianz for all pupils, paid for as part of the book bill. Details above.
Vox Amicum
Bhaineamar an-taitneamh as ceol ghaoth práis Vox Amicum ar an Aoine. D’fhéadfadh a lán tuba-anna a bheith ar na liosta do Dhaidí na Nollag ina dhiaidh. Míle buíochas le Féile Cheol Bhaile na Manach as a sholáthair dúinn.
Rang 1-6 had 45 minutes of wind brass music with voxamicumbrass.com on Friday. They were brilliant – the ensemble and the pupils. Thanks to Music in Monkstown Festival for arranging. We would recommend Vox Amicum for events after this. Though not completely fluent, their presentation was in Irish and the show was pitched (ahem) perfectly for the pupils.
Cúram ag an ngeata um thráthnóna
Meabhraigh do na páistí siúl amach as geataí na scoile agus gan rith trasna an bhóthair, le bhur dtoil. Bhíomar an-mhaith go dtí seo. Tá fáilte roimh thuismitheoirí teacht isteach sa Chlós chun bualadh lena bpáistí. Ná tiomáinimis síos thar an scoil. Tá fáilte roimh thuismitheoiri teacht isteach sa chlós chun bualadh go sábháilte lena bpáistí. Is do lucht rothar agus scútar agus tuismitheoirí lena bpáistí an geata uachtarach.
Please remind the children to walk out the school gates and not run across the road. We have been great, thus far. The double gate at the upper end is for bikes and scooters. Parents are welcome in to the clós to meed their children safely. Parent may also exit with their children through the double gates.
Seomraí breise OS
Táimid ag baint an-úsáid as dhá sheomra breise Oideachas Speisialta a chruthaíomar trí na leabhair sa leabharlann a chur isteach sa hall agus an fearas sa seomra glantacháin a bhogadh go cúinní éagsúla.
We’re already getting great use of the two extra Special Ed rooms we created by moving the books out of our erstwhile library and the cleaning equipment out of the store in the admin area. We’re trying to use our limited space as well as possible.
Scútair is rothair
Ná fág scútar ná rothar sa scoil thar oíche, le do thoil, ná thar an deireadh seachtaine.
Please don’t leave bikes or scooters in school overnight, and especially overweekend
Feadóga Stáin Rang 3-6
Táimid ag iarraidh ar gach dalta Rang 3-6 feadóg stáin Gléas D a thabhairt isteach an tseachtain seo. Beidh na rangann go léir ag foghlaim na feadóige ar feadh tréimhse i mbliana. Beidh an fheadóg le fágáil ar scoil. Cuir ainm do pháiste air. Ba cheart go mbeadh feadóg eile sa bhaile. Níor ordaíomar iad mar chuid den liosta leabhair mar go mbeadh go leor feadóg sa bhaile cheana féin.
We’re asking all the pupils in Rang 3-6 to bring in a tin whistle Key D, and to have another one at home for practising. You might put your child’s name on it. We didn’t order them on the book list as we felt that a lot of houses would find them in that drawer in the kitchen or at the back of the bookcase.
Polasaí Ainmneacha Scoil Lorcáin
Aithníonn Scoil Lorcáin
gur iad na tuismitheoirí/ caomhnóirí a roghnaíonn ainmneacha a bpáistí.
gur cuid dár n-oidhreacht Ghaelach iad ár n-ainmneacha i nGaeilge agus go bhfuil luach againn orthu dá reir.
Chéad Ainmneacha: Cláróidh agus úsáidfidh an scoil an t-ainm atá ar an Teastas Breithe. Tá fáilte roimh thuismitheoirí/ chaomhnóirí iarradh orainn leagan Gaeilge/ Gaelach den ainm a úsáid le linn an lá scoile, más mian leo.
Sloinnte: Cláróidh an scoil an t-ainm atá ar an Teastas Breithe. Úsáidfidh an scoil an t-ainm sin, ach amháin i gcásanna gur ainm de bhunús Gaeilge é, mar a úsáidfear an bunleagan Gaeilge. Tá fáilte roimh thuismitheoir a chur in iúl dúinn gur mian leo go n-úsáidfí an t-ainm ar an Teastas Breithe amháin.
Ní úsáidfear ach an leagan ar an Teastas Breithe nó an leagan Gaeilge go foirmeálta ar scoil.
Scoil Lorcáin recognises a parents/guardians’ right to name their children. We also recognise that the Irish names are an important part of our heritage and we value them for that.
First Names: We will register and use the name on the Birth Cert. We are happy to use an original Irish version of a name if parents are happy for us to do so.
Surnames: We will register and use the name on the Birth Cert. If it is a name of Irish origin we will use the original Irish version. Parents are welcome to inform us should they wish the version on the Birth Cert only to be used.
We will only use the verion on the Birth Cert or the original Irish version in school.

Tá foirm léirithe spéise in uirlis a thógáil ar iasacht ar fáil anseo: https://forms.gle/zPEdWXDvgN3xL4qy5. Níl gá an fhoirm seo a chomhlíonadh i gcás go bhfuil do pháiste ag freastal ar ranganna iarscoile In. Uí Leochain. Déanfaidh In. Uí Leochain uirlis a fháil ón scéim do do phaiste.
Tabharfar tosaíocht do pháistí atá ag freastal ar ranganna ceoil iarscoile agus ansin dóibh nach raibh uirlis acu cheana féin. Ina dhiaidh sin déanfar tús freastail ar an gceoltóir is túisce!

Cosc ar ghutháin chliste
Cuimhnimis go bhfuil cosc ar ghuthán cliste a bheith ag daltaí ar scoil in aon chor. Breathnaítear air mar mhí-iompar tromchúiseach ceann a bheith ag dalta.
We’d like to remind you that pupils may not bring smartphones to school at all. It’s seen as serious mis-behaviour for a pupil to bring one to school.
Cumann na mBunscol
Is léiriú ar an dul chun cinn suntasach atá déanta i spórt na mban le blianta anuas go bhfuil, don chéad uair, níos mó cailíní Rang ⅚ ag gabháíl den pheil scoile ná buachaillí. Buíochas le gach duine atá páirteach sa réabhlóid seo.
It’s a measure of our progress in female participation in sport in Ireland, and in Gaelic Games, in particular, that – for the first time – we have more girls than boys playing school football this year. Thanks to all involved, in any way, in this revolution.
Cófraí le caitheamh amach
Tá cúpla cófra le caitheamh amach againn sa scoil. Cuireadh ar stóras iad ag tús na paindéime agus níl siad ar ais uainn. Féach pic ar ár gcuntas twitter @scoillorcain.
We have a few presses to get rid of. We stored them away at the beginning of the pandemic and find ourselves not needing them now. See pics on our twitter @scoillorcain .
Whatsapp as Gaeilge ó do ghrá geal sa Rúis
Tá cúpla tuismitheoir tar éis whatsapp Gaeilge a fháil le déanaí ar léir gur camscéim iad gur gá a bheith cúramach leo – sé sin munar mian leat teagmháil le do ghrá geal nach bhfaca le fada tú agus nach bhfuil a fhios aici an bhfuil tú fós ag cuimhneamh uirthi/air agus atá ag iarraidh grianghraf a sheoladh chughat (Babooshka na Cúise?)
A couple of parents have received unsolicited whatsapp messages in Irish which are best deleted, unless you wanted to make contact with an old friend from Russia who isn’t sure if you were still able to remember him/her and has just changed to a new whatsapp account and who wants to send you a photograph (From Russia with love?)

Cumarsáid le múinteoirí
Má tá tú ag iarraidh ceist nó fadhb a phlé le múinteoir, déan coinne léi/ leis, le do thoil tríd Aladdin nó Oifig na Scoile. Ná déan iarracht a phlé ar maidin agus an rang á bhailiú ón gclós, ldt,ná ag doras an tseomra ranga. Is féidir píosa eolais a thabhairt ar maidin, m.sh. Caithfidh mé an cat a thabhairt ag an lia ainmhithe agus tá Máirtín corraithe.
If you want to discuss an issue with a teacher, please, make an appointment through Aladdin or Oifig na Scoile. It’s better not to try to discuss when the teacher collects the class in the morning or at the classroom door. You are welcome to give a relevant piece of information as the line is collected, eg. the dog is sick and Máire is upset.
Déanach ar scoil 1
Má tá do pháiste chun a bheith níos déanaí ná/ tar éis a bheith níos déanaí ná 8.55 rn ar scoil, chabhródh sé dá seolfá nóta isteach ar Aladdin ldt.
If your child is going to be later/ is later than 8.55 am, it would help the teacher to receive a note on Aladdin. Grma.
Bailiú Naíonán ag 1.15 rn.
Tá fáilte romhaibh teacht isteach an geata ó 1.00 in ar aghaidh, ach bheimís buíoch dá bhfanfadh sibh ar thaobh an bhóthair de Dhoras na Naíonán go dtí go mbíonn na ranganna imithe amach go dtí an Clós ag 1.15 in.
For collecting Naíonáin ag 1.15 pm you are welcome to come inside the gate from 1.00 pm but, please, stay on the road-side of Doras na Naíonán until the classes go out to the yard at 1.15, as the passage was becoming a bit of an obstacle course. Grma.
Déanach ag teacht ar scoil 2
Iarraimid, ar chúiseanna slándála, ar thuismitheoirí gan teacht isteach sa scoil trí na doirse ar cúl na scoile má bhíonn an rang imithe isteach ar maidin. Is féidir leis an bpáiste teacht isteach má tá an doras fós ar oscailt agus fios an bhealaigh aici/aige. Tá fáilte roimh thuismitheoirí teacht isteach an doras tosaigh chuig an Oifig Fáiltithe lena bpáistí. Is féidir le páistí i gCúinne na Naíonán thíos staighre teacht isteach ansin go dtí go ndúntar an doras ag 8.55 in. Is gá dúinn smacht a bheith againn ar theacht isteach.
For security reasons, parents are asked not to enter the school through the doors at the back any more if the class has already been collected in the morning. If the door is still open and your child knows the way, then s/he can come in. Otherwise, you can bring your child to the Oifig Fáilte via the front door. Infants in Cúinne na Naionán can come in there up to 8.55 am when the door will be closed. We need to control access. Grma.
Feadóga Stáin
Buíochas as na feadóga go léir atá tugtha isteach do Rang 3-6.
Thanks to all for sending in tin whistles for Rang 3-6.
Teanga Tí
Is scéim í Teanga Tí mar chuid de Ghlór na nGael a thugann tacaíocht do theaghlaigh Ghaeilge.
Tá fáilte roimh phobal Scoil Lorcáin bheith mar ghrúpa Teanga Tí. Beidh fáilte freastal ar imeachtaí sóisialta a bheidh á reachtáil i rith na bliana, taobh amuigh de huaireanta na scoile agus aois oiriúnach.
Má thógtar do pháiste trí Ghaeilge agus suim agat bheith páirteach, ní mór duit ach an fhoirm cheangailte a líonadh isteach.

Céilí na Samhna
Colmán, a chara,
What an utterly brilliant job the whole team involved did last night!
It was a huge success. The kids had a terrific time. There were smiling faces everywhere I looked. The amazing creativity in the kids costumes was fantastic (and my special delight the absence of shop bought.)
All parents and teachers and helpers in their costumes made the atmosphere fun. A special shout out to the comperes on the evening Ronan and Debbie. They deserve medals for their energy, focus and enthusiasm.
The school looked fantastic from the lit pumpkins at the entrance, to the wonderful decorations, the musicians and dancers.
It was a high point when the national anthem was sung and the kids had arms on each other’s shoulders happy and proud of themselves. There was a gorgeous sense of community.
Credit and huge thanks to everyone who made the night so special.
Tuismitheoir Sásta.
An Chéad Chomaoineach
Tá an Chéad Chomaoineach tar éis athrú mar go bhfuil an Deoiseas ag cur béime ar na sácraimintí a bheith bunaithe ar an bparóiste. As seo amach, i Scoil Lorcáin:
Leanfaidh na páistí leis an gclár Teagasc Críostaí ‘I nGrá Dé’ ar scoil.
Eagróidh Pobal an Aifrinn i bParóiste Naomh Micheál Dún Laoghaire an Chéad Fhaoistin agus an Chéad Chomaoineach le cabhair ó thuismitheoirí na bpáistí.
Beidh ar gach tuismitheoir/ caomhnóir a páiste a chlárú leis an bParóiste don Chéad Fhaoistin agus don Chéad Chomaoineach.
Beidh aifreann míosúil ullmhúcháin faoin gclár ‘Déan é seo i gcuimhne ormsa’ gach Domhnach ó mhí Dheireadh Fómhair.
Beidh an Chéad Fhaoistin.sa séipéal tráthnóna lá scoile i rith na Márta.
Beidh trí nó ceithre aifreann Chéad Chomaoineach ar 10.00 maidin Domhnaigh i rith na Bealtaine. Freastalóidh roinnt de na daltaí ar gach aifreann chun a gCéad Chomaoineach a dhéanamh.
Tá Cumann na dTuismitheoirí ag plé an tslí is fearr leis an ócáid a cheiliúradh sa scoil i mbliana. Is cuir chuige nua é seo agus beidh go leor le hoibriú amach. Is féidir go n-athródh roinnt de na socruithe thuas agus muid ag bogadh ar aghaidh.
Tá fáilte roimh aon teaghlach freastal ar an Aifreann Gaeilge a bhíonn i Séipéal Naomh Micheál gach Domhnach.
The ‘new look’ Chéad Chomaoineach is taking shape in Scoil Lorcáin as in many schools across the diocese.
In Scoil Lorcáin:
The teachers will continue to teach the RE programme ‘I nGrá Dé’ in school.
The Irish Mass group Pobal an Aifrinn in Dún Laoghaire will organise the Sacraments of First Confession and First Communion with the aid of the parents/guardians.
Every child must be registered with the parish for First Communion.
Preparatory masses under the ‘Do this in memory of me’ programme wil be at 10.00 am Sunday 30/10 on a monthly basis from October.
First Confession will be celebrated in St. Michael’s Church on a school day afternoon in March.
There will be three or four – depending on numbers – First Communion masses on Sunday at 10.00 am during May with groups of the children attending each.
Cumann na dTuismitheoirí ar discussing the most appropriate way to celebrate the First Communion in the school this year and henceforth.
Much will be teased out this year as the change is implemented. The arrangements above are not written in stone and can be developed.
All families are welcome to attend the Irish mass which is celebrated in St. Michael’s, Dún Laoghaire every Sunday 10.00 am.

Polasaí Oideachais lasmuigh den Ghaeltacht
Tá an Roinn Oideachais ag tabhairt faoi chomhairliúchán poiblí ar mhaithe le polasaí nua a
fhorbairt don oideachas lán- Ghaeilge lasmuigh denGhaeltacht.
Tugtar cuireadh duit do chuid tuairimí a chur in iúl ar cheisteanna ar nós:
• Conas is féidir an líon leanaí agus daoine óga atá ag freastal ar scoileanna lán-Ghaeilge a mhéadú?
• Conas is féidir an soláthar múinteoirí agus baill foirne eile, a bhfuil ardchaighdeán Gaeilge acu, a mhéadú?
• Cén tacaíochtaí breise a bheadh úsáideach don earnáil lán-Ghaeilge?
Chun do thuairimí a chur in iúl, nó chun tuilleadh eolais a fháil, téigh go gov.ie/POLG
The Department of Education is conducting a consultation process to inform the development of a new policy for Irish-medium education outside of the Gaeltacht. You are invited to have your say on issues such as:
• How we can increase opportunities for children and young people to access Irish-
medium education?
• How we can increase the supply of teachers and other staff with a high standard of
Irish?
• What additional supports would be useful for the Irish-medium sector? To have your say or to find out more, go to gov.ie/POLG

Gnó a thugann cúnamh do thuismitheoirí Gaeilge a labhairt lena bpáistí ag baile.

Go leor de na tuismitheoirí atá ar an gcúrsa mór atá againn, tá a bpáistí ag freastal ar ghaelscoileanna.

A chara
We live on Belgrave Square and my daughter lost her gym bag between our house and the DART. It is a grey rucksack with pink zipper detail. It has a lot of sports kit from Loreto Dalkey and a pair of black runners. We were just wondering whether someone may have handed the bag into you given that you are the nearest school.

Scannánaíocht na Gaeilge
Táimid ag ceiliúradh 70 bliain agus táimid ag ceilúradh rabharta an scannánaíocht agus an Ghaeilge le cúpla bliain anuas – Arracht, An Cailín Ciúin, Róise agus Frainc agus eile. Táimid an-bhródúil as an mbaint atá ag Macalla agus Muintir Mhic Conghail agus daoine eile atá bainteach le pobal Scoil Lorcáin leis an mborradh seo agus le drámaíocht agus teilifíseacht Gaeilge. Bímis mar chuid den rabharta – breathnaímis ar na scannáin
We’re celebrating our 70th- next Monday in particular, in a characteristically understated manner. We’re also celebrating the surge in Irish language film-making evince by Arracht, An Cailín Ciúin and Róise agus Frank and the involvement of many from the school community such as Cuán Mac Conghail’s family in Irish language drama, television, radio and film making for the last 70 years.

Beidh dráma ag Rang 1 i mbliana, mar gur chaill siad amach ar Dhrámaí na Naíonán le dhá bhliain anuas. Is féidir grianghrafanna a thógáil, ach gan iad a phostáil ar na meáin shóisialta.

Tuismitheoirí na Naíonán – Gaeilge sa Chlós ar maidin
Iarraimid ar thuismitheoirí a mhéid Gaeilge agus is féidir leo a labhairt sa Chlós ar maidin agus iad ag fanacht ar an múinteoir leis an rang a bhailiú. Déanann sé seo imprisean láidir ar na daltaí.
Iarraimid oraibh, chomh maith, fanacht leis na Naíonáin go dtí go mbailíonn na múinteoirí iad. Tá siad ró-óg a bheith leo féin. Ní ghlacaimid freagacht astu go dtí sin.
Please speak as much Irish as possible when minding your child in the Clós in the morning while waiting for the teacher to collect the class. This strengthens our efforts to have an Irish language environment in the school.
Parents of infants, please, also, stay with your child until the teacher collects the class. They are too young to be on their own and we don’t accept responsibility until 8.35 am.
Poncúlacht agus Slándáil
Ba cheart go mbeadh daltaí sna línte nuair a bhailítear iad ag 8.35 rn. Is féidir le haon duine a bheith déanach uair nó dhó, ach níor cheart a bheith déanach go rialta. Cailleann daltaí déanacha amach ar thús an lae agus cuireann siad isteach ar an rang agus iad ag teacht isteach.
Ar mhaithe le slándáil, beidh doirse na scoile á ndúnadh ar 8.45 in, ach doras Chúinne na Naíonán a dhúnfar ag 8.55 rn don cheithre rang sa Chúinne. Is ceart teacht to príomhdhoras na scoile ina dhiaidh sin. Is féidir leis na daltaí dul chuig an rang leo féin ón doras. Iarraimid ar thuismitheoirí gan teacht isteach leo, ach i gcásanna eisceachtúla sna Naíonáin Shóisireacha.
Pupils should be in their line at 8.35 am when they are collected by the teacher. Anyone can be late once or twice but we shouldn’t be late regularly. Late pupils miss out on the start of the day and interrupt the class when they arrive.
School doors will close 8.45 am from now on, but for Cúinne na Naíonán at 8.55 am for the four infant classes there. You should come to the front door after that to gain entrance. For security and to develop independence, parents etc are asked not to come in with their children, except in exceptional circumstances in the Naionáin Shoisireacha.
Ceistneoirí is rl.
Táimid sásta ceistneoirí is rl a bhaineann le measúnaithe sicelaíochta is rl ar pháistí a líonadh. Ach is ceart na ceistneoirí seo a sheoladh isteach tríd oifig na scoile agus ní díreach chuig an múinteoir. Is gá seachtain ar a laghad a thabhairt dúinn na ceistneoirí agus próifílí a líonadh mar go dtógann siad am agus gur mian linn iad a dhéanamh i gceart.
We are happy to fill questionnaires and profiles which are used as part of psychological and educational assessments. They should be sent via Oifig na Scoile rather than directly to the teacher. We need at least a week to fill because we want to do them properly, without undue pressure.
Ceistneoir gaeloideachais
Tabhair faoi, más féidir in aon chor, ldt.
Please try to fill in the questionnaire re Irish language education we circulated Wednesday.
Milseáin is eile.
Rinneamar socrú le linn na paindéime go bhféadfadh páistí milseáin a roinnt leis an páistí eile ina rang ar a lá breithe, mar nach raibh siad in ann cóisirí a bheith acu. Tá deireadh leis sin anois agus iarraimid oraibh gan milseáin ná aon bhia eile a sheoladh isteach. Tá cead ag an múinteoir ranga milseán a thabhairt anois is arís mar fheirín.
We had an arrangement during covid that children could share sweets with their classmates, as they couldn’t have parties. That arrangement is over now and we ask you not to send sweets or any food in. Teachers may give sweets as an occasional treat.
Tíleadóir á lorg
Píosa beag ealaíne sa phost, ag cur tíleanna a rinne roinnt ranganna ar an bpeann luaidhe mór sa ghairdín tosaigh.

Gníomhaíocht le taitneamh
Thug ActivelyFUN tacaíocht dúinn le hAonach na Nollag.
ActivelyFUN has been designed for children to practice fundamental movement skills and play multiple sports in an environment focused on participation and fun over competition.
This mixture of skill learning, practice, and then utilisation in a live, dynamic environment is the perfect chance to develop fundamental movement skills through play, fun, and sport.
If anybody wants to come down and try, they just need to give us an email or call.

Ceolchoirmeacha na Nollag
Tá Clár Cheolchoirmeacha na Nollag don Aoine bheag seo 16 Nollaig ag bun na Nuachtlitreach seo. Siúl nó rothaigh, más féidir. Tabhair go leor ama duit féin. Tosóidh na ceolchoirmeacha in am. Tar go luath agus ól cupan caifé i gCaifé Lorcáin. Níl cead ach ag na daltaí atá páirteach freastal ar na ceolchoirmeacha. Níl cead siblíní a bhailiú ó ranganna chun iad a thabhairt. Beidh na taispeántais feicthe ag na daltaí go léir Déardaoin. Beidh ar gach duine an halla a fhágáil idir ceolchoirmeacha chun seans a thabhairt dúinn an áit a chur i dtreo agus a aerú roimh an gcéad cheolchoirm eile. Ní féidir suíocháin a choimeád trí chótaí a fhágaint orthu. Ní bheidh cead deochanna te a thabhairt isteach sa halla ach má tá claibín ceart orthu. Fan go dtí deireadh na ceolchoirme, le do thoil, seachas fágáil nuair atá do pháiste féin déanta.
Tá an ceithre cheolchoirm á reachtáil againn in aon lá amháin, ionas nach mbeidh ar thuismitheoirí am saor a thógaint ó obair dhá lá. Cuirfidh sé seo bru orainn ach tuigimid go bhfuil bhur dtuiscint agus bhur bhfoighne againn, cuma cad a tharlaíonn.
See the schedule for our Christmas concerts this Friday below. Walk or cycle, if you can. Give yourself plenty of time – there will be no parking near the school. Park legally, please. The concerts will start on time. You could arrive early and enjoy a cup in Caifé Lorcáin. Only pupils participating in a concert may attend. Siblings may not be collected from classes. All pupils will see all the shows this Thursday, in our dress rehearsals. Everyone must vacate the hall when concert is over to allow us to re-organise and aerate. No leaving coats on chairs to ‘keep’. Hot drinks in hall only if in a sturdy cup with a top. Please stay till end of concert rather than leaving when your child is done. The last group on stage deserve a good audience, too. We’re organising the four concerts in one day – rather than two – so that you don’t need to take time off work twice. This puts us under pressure, but we know that we have you patience and support, as ever.
Caifé Lorcáin ag Ceolchoirmeacha na Nollag
Beidh Caifé Lorcáin á reachtáil sa scoil 8.30 rn – 1.30 in ag iarscoláirí chun airgead a bhailiú do thuras chun na Siombáibe sa samhradh chun tithe a thógáil agus tabhairt faoi fhorbairt phobail.
Tabhair do choimeádchupán féin leat, más ann dó.
Caifé Lorcáin will be in operation in the school by past pupils with tea/coffee and biscuits/cakes 8.30 am – 1.30 pm as a fundraiser for community development and housebuilding trip to Zambia. Arrive early for your child’s concert and enjoy a cup at ease.

Bia bailithe do Naomh Uinsionn de Pól
Míle buíochas le gach duine a thug bia is eile isteach do Naomh Uinsionn de Pól. Líonamar trí ghluaisteán. Beidh Nollaig níos sona ag go leor de bharr bhur bhflaithiúlachta.
Thank you for the three cars full of goods donated for St. Vincent de Paul. There will be a happier Christmas in some households as a result.
Teas.
Buíochas leo siúd a d’fhreagair an glaoch do theasairí de bharr fadhbanna teasa le déanaí. Agus buíochas ar leith leis an tuismitheoir atá tar éis tacaíocht ghairmiúil a chur ar fáil chun déileáil leis na fadhbanna atá ag eascairt as an iarracht atá ar bun déileáil ar na fadhbanna a fágadh againn mar thoradh ar an athfhorbairt c 7 mbliana ó shin.
Thank you to all who responded to the call for heaters because of our heating problems. And thanks, too, to the parent who has made top class professional help available to help deal with issues that are arising as we deal with other issues we were left with as a result of low standards during our re-development 7 years ago.
Éadaí féin
Beidh cead ag na daltaí a gcuid éadaí féin a chaitheamh Céadaoin 21 Nollaig, an lá deireanach roimh an mbriseadh.
Pupils may wear their own clothes Wednesday week, last day of term.
Comhairle ón FSE
Is í an phríomhtheachtaireacht ná:
Is éard is tábhachtaí ná fanacht sa bhaile má tá tú tinn.
Má tá lean leanaí tinn ba chóir dóibh bheith sa bhaile go dtí go bhfuil deireadh leis na siomptóim. Seachnófar scapadh, mar sin.
The primary message from the HSE is to stay home if you are unwell until symptoms have finished. This will help prevent spread to other children, families and staff.

Beidh Moya Brennan agus ceoltóirí Chraobh Phiarais Uí Ghréagáin CCÉ ag glacadh páirte sa cheiliúradh bliantúil seo i Séipéal Bhaile na Manach Máirt 20 Nollaig.

Ardóidh an cheolchoirm, cuid éigin, an scamall bróin atá crochta ó cailleadh Sorcha Uí Ghréagáin – Uachtarán Chraobh Phiarais Uí Ghréagáin – le déanaí.
The annual Irish Christmas Celebration with Moya Brennan and Craobh Phiarais Uí Ghréagáin musicians in Monkstown Church Tuesday 20th is almost sold out, we hear. Special good wishes to all our pupils and past pupils taking part. There will be a an empty seat and a tinge of sadness this year following the recent passing of Sorcha Uí Ghréagáin,Uachtarán Chraobh Phiarais Uí Ghréagáin, but it will be a fitting way to remember Sorcha.

New year wishes to all in our community. It’s great to be back together again. Information on three important consultations below.
Comhairliúchán 1
Níl ach 10 lá fágtha don chomhairliúcán maidir le polasaí nua don oideachas lán-Ghaeilge! Mura bhfuil sé déanta agat go fóill, bheimis an-bhuíoch dá nglacfá páirt roimh 16 Eanáir 2023.
Tá níos mó eolais, agus an nasc chuig an gceistneoir, ar fáil ar an suíomh gréasáin seo: gov.ie/POLG
There are only five days left in the consultation to inform the development of a new policy for Irish-medium education. Please participate before 16 January 2023.
We can help other children to have the same chance as our own.
Go raibh maith agaibh as bhur gcabhair leis seo.
Comhairliúchán 2
Tá athbhreithniú tosaithe ag an Roinn Oideachais ar an reachtaíocht a sholáthraíonn oideachas do leanaí agus daoine óga a bhfuil riachtanais speisialta oideachais acu.
Is cuid tábhachtach den athbhreithniú é taithí saoil daltaí agus iar-dhaltaí agus a dtuismitheoirí a thaifead. Seo an nasc: (gov.ie/athbhreithniuEPSEN). Tá suim ar leith ag an Roinn éisteacht le daltaí agus a dtuismitheoirí, agus daoine óga a d’fhág an scoil le déanaí.
Nuair atá an próiseas suirbhé críochnaithe, foilseoidh an Roinn páipéar comhairliúcháin, agus beidh ócáidí comhairliúcháin breise ar siúl. Más mian leat cuireadh a fháil chuig ócáid chomhairliúcháin, téigh i dteagmháil leis an Roinn ar epsen@education.gov.ie.
The Department of Education has commenced a review of the legislation that provides for education for children and young persons with special educational needs.
As part of the review process, a public consultation is taking place vis this link: (www.gov.ie/epsenreview). The Department especially wants to hear from students and their parents, and from young people who left school in recent years.
When the survey process is completed, the Department will produce a consultation paper, and will run further consultation events. If you would like to be invited to a consultation event, please contact the Department on epsen@education.gov.ie.

The names of all the pupils currently in the school, as well as those who left in the last two years will be inscribed on ceramic plaques by local artist Carol Burke and will then be installed in the corridor leading to the Halla, alongside the plaques which celebrate all the pupils who attended 1952 – 2012, to be unveiled June or September 2023.
Rolla Aladdin
Mar eolas, is é seo an cur chuige ó thaobh marcáil an Rolla, a dhéantar ar an gcóras digiteach Aladdin, mar fhreagra ar chúpla fiosrúchán.
- 8.35 rn am oscailte oifigiúil na scoile. Ba cheart do dhaltaí a bheith ar scoil.
- 8.55 rn am thosnú mhúineadh foirmeálta
- Rolla le glaoch roimh 9.30 rn.
- Freastal ar choinní oifigiúla leighis FFS is rl ceadaithe agus ní gá a áireamh mar as láithreacht, ach fianaise le cur ar fáil ag an tuismitheoir roimh réidh. Ní athróimid an rolla má chuirtear in iúl tar éis.
- Má thagann páiste isteach faoi 8.55 rn, níl siad déanach.
- Má thagann isteach tar éis 8.55 rn ach roimh ghlaoch an rolla, tá déanach agus i láthair.
- Má thagann isteach tar éis ghlaoch an rolla, tá as láthair go hoifigiúil, ach nótálfar gur tháinig siad ar scoil.
- Má fhágann dalta go luath, athrófar an tinreamh go hasláthair. (Ní dhéanfar é seo le coinne oifigiúil leighis agus fianaise curtha ar fáil.)
- Cé go bhfuil roinnd de seo cuíosach dian, seo iad rialacha an Roinn Oideachais.
This is how we maintain our Roll Books, which are digitised on the Aladdin database, in reply to some queries.
- School opens 8.35 am, all pupils should be in school for 20 minutes Reception Time.
- 8.55 Official teaching time starts.
- Roll to be called by 9.30 am.
- Official appointments for medical and dental care do not count as time out of school and the pupil won’t be marked absent as long as we are informed and presented with evidence beforehand.
- A pupils on time for the Rolla if in the school by 8.55 am.
- If a pupil arrives after 8.55 am but before the roll is called they will be marked Present, but late.
- If a pupil arrives after the roll is called they remain marked Absent but there presenc will be noted.
- If a pupil leaves before 1.15/ 2.15 pm, they will be marked absent except in the case of official medical/ dental care with evidence presented before hand.
- Some of the above sounds harsh, but they are the rules of the Dep of Education.

Má tá siblín na ag tosú linn i Meán Fómhair, anois an t-am chun tosú ar an Modh Coinníollach agus an Tuiseal Ginideach sa bhaile.
If a sibling is due to start with us in September, now would be a good time to ramp up the use of Irish at home.

Billí Leabhar is eile
Ní bheidh aon chostas ar phobal na scoile maidir le leabhair agus cóipleabhair scoile don bhliain seo chughainn mar go bhfuil deontas tugtha isteach ag an Roinn Oideachais chuige sin. Ach beidh costas, fótachóipeála, ealaíne agus árachais á mbailiú againn, mar is gnáthach.
Is ceart go dtuigfí go bhfuil ciste díscréideach ag an scoil agus má tá deacracht agat na costaisí thuasluaite nó costaisí a dhíol m.sh. turais scoile, éide scoile, ní gá focal ciúin a bheith agat le Colmán Príomhoide nó Caitríona Rúnaí.
While there will be no cost for books or copies this year, as a result of the new Department of Education grant, we will be collecting photocopying, art and insurance costs, as usual.
Please not, that we have a discretionary fund and if there is any isue with paying for the items above or the likes of school trips you are welcome to have a wore with Caitríona Mhic Leannáin or Colmán Ó Drisceoil.
Teangacha Iasachta
Tá Rang 5 ag déanamh Spáinnise leis an tuismitheoir Ray Breathnach arís i mbliana. Buíochas lena chomhlucht Salesforce as é a scaoileadh chun é seo a dhéanamh. Tá súil againn teangacha eile a bheith á mblaiseadh sa scoil roimh dheireadh na bliana, nó ag tús na bliana seo chughainn.
Rang 5 are being introduced to Spanish by our very own Ray Walsh. We hope to sample a few more languages before the summer.
Brat Bród le crochadh
Tá Brat Bród le crochadh arís againn don chéad choicís sa Mheitheamh mar chomhartha tacaíochta agus ilchineálachais.

Beimid ag cur tús arís an tseachtain seo le ranganna Gaeilge do Thosnaitheoirí (daoine gan Gaeilge ar bith, ar siúl Déardaoin) agus don Mheán Leibhéal (ar siúl Dé Céadaoin). Más suim leat freastal, seol ríomhphost chuig: slrangannagaeilge@gmail.com
We are back this week with Irish classes in the school for Beginners (no Irish, on Thursdays) and the Intermediate level (on Wednesdays). If you or someone you know has any interest please email slrangannagaeilge@gmail.com
Geansaithe agus cótaí gan ainm
Go raibh maith agaibh as ainmneacha a scríobh ar chótaí agus ar gheansaithe, go speisialta. Bímid ábalta iad a thabhairt ar ais nuair a chailltear iad. Muna bhfuil ainm air, cuirfimid ar fhalla na scoile é lá tirim éigin agus gheobhaimid réidh leis má tá sé fós ann ag deireadh an lae.
Thanks for writing names on jumpers and coats. If we find one without a name we’ll put it out on the school wall for a day, and get rid of it then.

Ailse Cíoch
D’iarr iarthuismitheoir orainn an tábhacht a bhaineann le scrúdú cíoch a fháil a mheabhrú do phobal na scoile. Tháinig an duine seo ar sheanlitir coinne agus í ag glanadh, fuair scrúdú agus aimsíodh ailse – luath seachas mall.
We have been asked to remind the school community of the importance of getting checked for breast cancer. A former parent found an old appointment letter while cleaning, attended the clinic and cancer was found – earlier rather than later.
Feighlí á Lorg (1)
Ag tosnú chomh luath agus is féidir, táimid ag lorg feighlí chun aire a thabhairt d’ár mac (15 mhí) ina teach féin. Dé Luain – Dé hAoine nó Dé Luain – An Déardaoin. Más feidir leat cúnamh a thabhairt dúinn nó chun tuilleadh eolas a fháil, déan teagmháil linn le do thoil ar 086 853 1103. GRMA.

Buíochas le tuismitheoirí/ caomhnóirí, agus fainic
Buíochas leis na tuismitheoirí a théann ar na turais scoile. Ní fhéadfaimis iad a dhéanamh gan sibh. Ach ní éiríonn linn cabhair a fháil uaireanta mar go bhfuil tuismitheoirí/ caomhnóirí gnóthach le hobair sa bhaile agus as baile. As seo amach, beidh ar mhúinteoirí a chinntiú go bhfuil an chabhair ar fáil sula gcuirimid turas scoile in áirithe. Ní féidir linn a bheith ag tógaint múinteoirí Oideachas Speisialta ná Cuntóirí Riachtanais Speisialta chun an easpa a chlúdach.
Thanks to the parents/ guardians who help out on school tours. We wouldn’t be able to go if it weren’t for you. But it is increasingly difficult to find parents/ guardians who are available. We can’t continue sending Special Ed teachers or SNAs to fill the gaps, as they have their own work to do. So, from now, teachers will see is the required help available before booking trips etc. We’d be glan to hear suggestions on this.
Gaeilge sa Chlós
Iarraimid ar thuismitheoirí na Naíonán Gaeilge a labhairt sa Chlós ar maidin chomh mór agus is féidir. Téann sé i bhfeidhm ar na páistí.
Thanks to the infant parents who speak as much Irish as they can in the clós in the morning and afternoon. It has a positive impact on the children.
APC
Míle buíochas leis an tuismitheoir a d’eagraigh cuairt ó sheisear eolaithe a oibríonn le APC i gCoill na Silíní chuig Rang 5 agus 6 – cuairt lán triallacha, Eolaíochta agus caint faoi ghairmeacha STEM. Bhaineamar an-tairbhe is taitneamh as.
Thanks to a parent who works in a local Irish Company – APC Ltd (based in Cherrywood, supporting the pharmaceutical industry) whereby Rang 5 agus 6 hosted a visit by 6 scientists who collaborated in experiments and discussed careers in engineering, science and STEM related disciplines. Some photos on twitter.
Nóta ón Roinn Oideachais
Tá treoirlínte maidir le scéim nua na leabhar scoile in aisce foilsithe ag gov.ie/leabhairbunscoile

Dornálaíocht
Táimid ag obair le DLRCC maidir le Comhtháthú Pobail. Ba mhaith linn an Club Dornálaíochta a chur chun tosaigh i ngach teaghlach/pobal nua agus reatha laistigh de Dhún Laoghaire Ráth an Dúin.
Tá cúrsa do Thosaitheoirí curtha le chéile againn ag tosú i lár mhí Aibreáin 2023 ar feadh 8 seachtaine – beidh bronnadh againn ag deireadh na 8 seachtaine agus bronnfaimid Bonn & Teastas MBC ar gach dornálaí, agus tabharfaidh muid cuireadh dóibh a bheith páirteach inár gclub ceart amach anseo.

Is mian linn go mbeadh na tuairiscí cruinn, réalaíoch. Bíonn múinteoir ag iarraidh a bheith chomh dearfach agus is féidir.
We want our reports to be correct and realistic. There can be a tendancy for teachers to overemphasise the positive.
1 (deacrachtaí móra) – is annamh a úsáidtear/ big difficulties, rarely used.
2 – (roinnt deacrachtaí) – bheadh sé seo in úsáid níos minicí, some difficulties, used more often.
3 (ag éirí go maith) – an meán sa rang. Páiste go breá. Gheobhaidh fórmhór na bpáistí seo.doing well, average in class, child is fine, most children will get this.
4 (cumasach agus inniúil) – do pháiste atá cumasach agus inniúil, ní do gach páiste. Ní bheadh chuile dhuine/fórmhór an ranga ag an leibhéal seo. For able children, not for every child, most of the children in a class would not be at this level.
5 (an-chumasach agus an-inniúil) – do pháistí eiseachtúla, annamh go n-úsáidtear. Ní bheadh in úsáid i ngach rang. Very able, for exceptionally able children, rarely used.

Picnic Scoil Lorcáin
Faraor, caithfimid an phicnic a chur ar ceal. Ní raibh go leor tuismitheoirí/ caomhnóirí ar fáil chun cabhraithe. Tuigimid go bhfuil daoine gnóthach na laethanta seo agus tá go leor tuismitheoirí tar éis dul ar thurasanna scoile is rl le déanaí agus bhí an fógra cineál déanach. B’fhéidir go n-eagróidh roinnt ranganna a bpicnic féin le cabhair na dtuimtheoirí a bhí ar fáil.
Unfortunately, we have to cancel Picnic Scoil Lorcáin next Tuesday as we didn’t have enough parents available. We understand parents are busy and have been very supportive for school tours etc, especially recently and that the notice was somewhat late. Some classes may organise their own picnics with parents who were available.

Gaeilge i rith na saoire
Leanaimis ar aghaidh ag labhairt Gaeilge, nuair is féidir, le linn na saoire, lbhdt. Is cúis áthais an méid Gaeilge a chloistear lasmuigh den scoil ó pháistí is tuistí gach lá.
Let’s keep talking Irish during the holidays. The amount of Irish spoken outside the school each morning and evening is great.
