It is hard to believe we're coming to the end of Term One in Firhouse Educate Together.... just one week to go! It will be a very busy week too: Monday and Tuesday there will be parent teacher meetings in the evening and afternoon respectively.
During the school days of the coming week there will be much preparation for our visit to Citywest Educate Together on Thursday 19th.
Citywest ETNS and Firhouse ETNS are the two schools that came about because of one group of four parents who began a campaign for an Educate Together Primary School in Dublin 24 many years ago. Now we are benefitting from their huge efforts. To appreciate and celebrate their achievements at the end of the first term with the two schools open, we are getting together and performing our Winter Wonderland concerts for each other. We will also put together a "TIME CAPSULE" of the first year of each school with handprints, notes, photos of buildings, children and staff of both schools etc to be opened in twenty years' time.
On Friday 20th December all families are invited to come into our school for a coffee morning from 10am. At 10.45am the children of Junior Infants will perform their Winter Wonderland songs and bring our first term to a close for the Winter Holidays.
I would like to thank our school manager Amy, our class teacher Tríona, Anita, Aileen, Agnieszka B, Gráinne, Laura, Máire and Agnieszka C for their great work during this first term, as well as all of you parents and guardians for your tremendous support. Most importantly an enormous thank you to our Junior Infants who are amazing young people and a joy to be around.
I wish you all lots of fun for the holiday season and every happiness for 2014.
Very best wishes,
Collette
