Dear parents, a reminder of our Cork Simon Fundraiser (see attached Santa Stamp Envelopes). For 1 euro these stamps are available from class teachers (up to 3rd class) or from the office. It is a nice way to support this local charity for very little. Thank you to those who have purchased the envelopes to date. We hope to send off monies collected in December, in time for Christmas.

  • Cork Penny Dinner Christmas Appeal Reminder

Ms. Cunningham is collecting items for the homeless of Cork which she shall donate to Penny Dinners in Cork city. Penny Dinners work directly with the homeless people of Cork. The items that are needed/ requested for adults and children are:

  •    New and store packaged underwear, vests, tights, socks
  •    Children’s jackets

Items are being collected throughout November and delivered them to Penny Dinners next week. This is a way of helping the homeless in Cork city. All donations gratefully received. A box clearly marked has been put at the back of the Halla for anyone who would like to donate the listed items.

  • You might be aware of the new bus service which passes Shanbally NS and includes Carrigaline. It passes close to the secondary schools in Carrigaline which might interest parents. There is a Road Show tomorrow in SuperValu Shopping Centre, Carrigaline from 2pm to 5pm if you would like to find out more about it.
