Junior Infants/ Naíonáin Shóisir 2024 – Fáilte!

Scoil na gCeithre Máistrí

A Thuismitheoirí / a Chaomhnóirí,

 Fáilte go Scoil na gCeithre Máistrí!

 

We are really looking forward to meeting you all on August the 30th for what will be the first day of school life for your child. This can be a challenging, exciting and even a nervous time for everyone. Our primary goal, especially for the first few days and weeks is to create a welcoming and positive environment for parents and children. You will have a multitude of questions, doubts and concerns and this summer will most likely be the hardest as you await the start date. Remember, our main goal is to create the welcome that you and your child deserve. Please don’t stress if you haven’t absolutely everything for the first day – Be here, be happy, be healthy!

 

All schoolbooks will be provided by the school, so the book list has become a thing of the past. There are some items that need to be purchased and parents will be directed to our website link below and different class lists so that they can organise these. Most of our communication happens through Aladdin Connect but please don’t worry if as a new parent you haven’t received notification on how to sign up to this. This happens in September after our wonderful new class is welcomed into the school. Once we are all settled in the Múinteoirí and Príomhoide  will inform you of our information evening for new parents in September. This is a great opportunity to meet, discuss and ask questions. We also have a tradition  of welcoming all our new parents into our hall for an informal ‘cupán tae’ in the first few days. The school will confirm time and date once we are all back! Again, a great opportunity to meet other parents, parent’s association reps and staff whom you will be sharing this journey with. 

In order to give a phased in approach with the school day for our Naíonáin Bheaga/Junior Infant class, we have shortened school hours for the first few days:

On Friday 30th August, children in Naíonáin Bheaga will be in school from 10.00 – 12.00.

From Monday 2nd  –  17th September, children in Naíonáin Bheaga will be in school from 9.10 – 12.00. 

Commencing on  September 18th your child will have a full school day and  be in school from 9.10 – 1.50. 

Morning Arrival: The school day starts at 9.10. The school gate will open at 9.00. Parents may walk their child to the school yard and line up and wait for the school bell to ring. 

Home-time Collection: Please wait in the school yard and the children will be let out one at a time. If your child is attending afterschool, please inform Múinteoir on the morning  with the details. 

Hot lunches for the new Naíonáin Bheaga will commence on 18th September.  The lunch bag company will provide details on how your child’s lunch can be ordered daily in early September. In the interim please provide an appropriate healthy lunch for your child.
