Communication and the School


Notes to School
If you wish to send a note (e.g. pupil being late) to the teacher, please write the note in the Comments Section in the journal. Notes of a private nature should be in a sealed envelope.

Parent-Teacher Communication
Formal Parent Teacher meetings are held in November. Parents are very welcome in our school and teachers will always make themselves available to meet you. However, we do ask you to make an appointment through Betty, our School Secretary, when you wish to see any member of staff. An appointment procedure ensures we will be able to give you our full attention.

Appointments
If there is any issue of concern, parents are earnestly requested to contact the school secretary to make an appointment to see your child's class teacher.

School Newsletter
A school newsletter is issued on a monthly basis and is given directly to the pupils. Please make sure that you get to see the newsletter as it contains important information on the school calendar and it details all activities taking place in the school. The school newsletter is usually issued on the last week of each calendar month. The newsletter is the main source of information for parents. Please ensure that your child delivers the newsletter to you.

School Web Site
The school web site www.stcolmcilles.org is another important source of information for parents. The web site also features the school calendar, the up to date school newsletter and other items of pertinent information. In the event of possible emergency closures e.g. due to inclement weather, we attempt to post information on the web site. The website is updated on a weekly basis and is a source of school news and information for parents and children alike.
