Weekly School News
Summer Uniform
Summer uniform can be worn from week beginning 2nd May but it is not a necessity if you would prefer
your child to continue wearing our full uniform. Please adhere to the guidelines below:
Girls Summer Uniform
 Green Gingham Summer Dress (supplied by Saints and Scholars)
 Black school shoes- sandals are not appropriate
 White socks
Boys Summer Uniform
 Plain White Polo Shirt – our school PE shirt is not suitable
 Green School Jumper – not PE sweatshirt
 Plain Navy Knee Length Shorts – no football shorts – no stripes – no three quarter length trousers
 Black School Shoes – no trainers – if you are unsure ask yourself does my child wear these shoes for
PE – if Yes then these are trainers and should not be worn except on PE days.
P1 and P2 children should continue to wear what they currently wear with the only exception being
that they can wear PLAIN NAVY SHORTS instead of tracksuit bottoms (see description above).
For P3 – P7 children the summer uniform only applies to the days when the children wear full school
uniform. On PE days the children should wear what they always wear on PE days. They may wear
plain navy shorts instead of tracksuit bottoms if they wish.
School Closures
Can I remind you that school is closed on Friday 29 April and Monday 2 May for holidays and also on
Thursday 5 May as we are a Polling Station.
Celebrating 150 years with the Redemptorists
This year we are celebrating 150 years with the Redemptorists. To celebrate this event the
Redemptorists have organised a pilgrimage to take an icon of our Mother of Perpetual Help to the 26
Cathedrals in Ireland. The icon will visit Newry Cathedral on the 10th May and will remain in the
Cathedral overnight. Please see the letter going home with your child today.
Fun and Sports Day
Early notice – It is proposed to hold Fun Day for P1-3 on Wednesday 18 May and Sports Day P4-7 on
Thursday 19 May – weather permitting
Parents Association
A huge thank you to our Parents Association and you our Parents for the donation of £2,250. This is
hugely appreciated and the school are currently deciding what way to spend this amount. More
details to follow.
