Dear Parents/Guardians,,
Welcome back to School for another busy school term, We hope everyone is rested and has settled back into school life this week.
GAA with Mike
Football training with Mike resumed on Thursday. The kids really enjoyed it. Mike will be here every Thursday for the next 5 weeks for GAA Football skills. Please ensure your child has their tracksuit and proper footwear.
School Hot Meals
We are very excited to have this facility in our school and It is vital that we have the full support of the school community to ensure the children try new foods, accept healthier foodstuff, change their orders regularly and act responsibly around food waste.
A few items to note;
- The app allows you to order up to a week in advance.
- A “default” meal is provided if you do not order.
- The cut off time for your order is 36 hours before delivery
- The service is provided in the school so on days that the children are off school e.g. for school tours, it is not available, so children will need to bring their own lunch.
- If there is an early finish e.g. on Tuesday 11 June lunch will be provided either for small break or to take with them.
- The school is able to edit the calendar for days that lunch is not offered and a warning symbol appears over the date on your child’s dashboard. It does not stop you doing an order, it just will not be delivered.
- If your child is going to be absent for a period of time it is possible to also to edit their calendar for absences so that an order is not delivered.
