A New Year, A New Beginning: January Newsletter

Dear Parents and Students,

As we step into the new year, we are filled with excitement and hope for all the learning, growth, and experiences that lie ahead. The start of 2025 brings with it the promise of new opportunities, challenges, and achievements, and we are thrilled to embark on this journey with you.

Embracing the Challenge of New Beginnings
The start of a new school year often feels like a blank page, ready to be filled with knowledge, friendships, and memorable moments. As we dive into the first few weeks, let’s remember that this is a time of growth and exploration. With every challenge, there’s an opportunity to learn something new, and we encourage students to approach each lesson with curiosity and determination.

The dawn of a new year, so bright and clear,
A chance to learn, a chance to cheer.
Each lesson we face, each test we take,
Is part of the journey we choose to make.

Exams Ahead: Understanding Their Purpose
As we approach the exam season, we want to remind students and parents that exams are not just a measure of how much we’ve learned; they are an opportunity for growth. While exams can feel daunting, they serve as a way to assess understanding, set goals for improvement, and prepare for future challenges. They are stepping stones that help guide us forward, marking progress along the way.

A Study skills workshop has been organised for 3rd  and 6th year groups on Monday and Tuesday January 21st & 22nd facilitated The Super Generation.

Parental support of this initiative is much appreciated and students will benefit greatly from the seminar. The cost of the workshop is €10.00. Payments can be made using the Tyro app.

We Are Here to Support You
We understand that the journey through school isn’t always easy, and at times, it may feel overwhelming. But rest assured, we are here for every student—through every test, every challenge, and every triumph. Our dedicated teachers and staff are committed to providing the support and guidance needed to succeed.

Together, let’s make this year one of resilience, achievement, and continued growth. Reach out when you need help, and lean on your school community for encouragement.
