• ✅ Department of Education - Review of Childcare Services - Survey ✅

  Thu 22 Sep 2022

  Have you got a few minutes to help improve childcare services in Northern Ireland?

   

  A review of childcare services in Northern Ireland, commissioned by the Department of Education, wants to hear from parents, carers and others in the sector.

   

  The review wants to understand the current state of the childcare sector in Northern Ireland, including the supply and demand of childcare services, their accessibility and affordability.

   

  The review will involve surveys and focus groups or interviews with parents, carers, childcare providers and other people within the childcare sector.

   

  Parents and carers of children aged between 0 and 14 years of age in Northern Ireland can have their say in this survey (your answers are anonymous):

• 🚗🅿️ Car Parking Reminders 🚗🅿️

  Mon 19 Sep 2022

  When dropping off and picking up pupils from school, we ask all of our school community to be mindful of the safety of our pupils and to be considerate of others.

  
  P1, P2 and P3 will now end their school day on a Friday at 1.50pm and P4-7 at 2.10pm.

   

  P5-7 children should be encouraged to walk/bike to school on days of good weather- if they live close to the school.

   

  Please enter/exit the Church Car Park in a very slow manner and park in a way which is safe and unobstructive to other drivers.

   

  Your continued support in keeping our children safe is appreciated.
