Year 3 Mu OLC

Dear Parents, thank you to everyone who attended the Reconciliation Committment Mass on Saturday night. The children were amazing and I was incredibly proud of their participation in the Mass. This week  (tomorrow night) Tuesday 19th February we have our Parent Information night. Year Three session starts at 6.30 in the hall and will then move to the classroom at 7 p.m. If you are unable to attend could you please let me know. Thank you. The children are settling into a great routine during Gathering Time and I am very impressed with how independent they are. It has been a really smooth start to the school year. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow night. Kind regards, Paula Murphy
