• School Closure: Monday 16th October

  Sun 15 Oct 2017

  In response to the imminent Storm Ophelia, the Department of Education is now informing all schools, colleges and other education institutions that they are to remain closed on Monday 16th October.

• School Closure: Tuesday 17th October

  Fri 13 Oct 2017

  *The Department of Education has closed all schools on Tuesday 17th of October 2017 due to Storm Ophelia.

   

  The school will be closed this coming Tuesday 17th of October 2017 for health and safety reasons.  The building work has now reached the stage of the roof trusses being installed.  This will involve a crane lifting the trusses over the existing buildings and walkways.  This work will take place for the entire day and is weather dependent.

   

  We apologise for any inconvenience caused but it is unavoidable in this instance.  It is not anticipated that we will need to close again to facilitate works. 

   

  We thank you all for your patience and understanding while the works continue to improve our school.
