The clash of the ash and sound of sliotar on hurl echoed round St. Colum’s this afternoon as 40 children - 15 hurlers & 25 camogs - started back at training, with even more expected! We’re looking forward to plenty of skills and stick-work with a few exciting events planned this school year!

Camogie/Hurling for P5 - P7 starts after school on Wednesday 11th October, 3 - 4pm.

 

Please bring your own stick, helmet and boots every week. Sticks and helmets will be provided for those who don’t have them. Weather permitting; we will be outside as much as possible. Indoor equipment will be provided if we have to stay indoors.

 

Permission slips should be returned asap.

WOW!! A huge THANK YOU to everyone who supported our Book Fair. All your shopping allows our school to chose books to the value of £380 for our class libraries. Happy reading everyone!!

WOW! Well done to everyone who walked, scooted or cycled to school in the rain this morning! Super effort! Lets try to actively travel to school as often as we can in spite of the weather.... walk, scoot or cycle. Many thanks for your continued support.

 

The forecast for tomorrow morning is...
...Overcast with occasional rain, mostly light through the morning... fingers crossed it'll just be overcast for our walking, scooting and cycling to school tomorrow for Walk on Wednesday. Remember your raincoats! 

'Walking Buses' leaving Manina and The Warren at 8.40am SHARP!!

 

 

 

 

The PTA will be holding its AGM on Wednesday 4th October at 7pm. At this meeting we will run through the highlights of the previous year, review the finances and discuss plans for the upcoming year. The meeting itself should take no longer than 30 minutes.

 

We will be losing several PTA members this year. A big thanks to them for their efforts over the last few years. Although the shoes will be hard to fill, we need new volunteers to step forward, so please consider helping out. It's not a huge commitment and can be quite fun and rewarding. We raised over £6000 last year and with your help, we hope to raise even more this year.

 

There will be teas and coffees, so it'll be a good way to meet new parents in a relaxed environment. 

We look forward to seeing you there!
