Dear Parents/Guardians
Welcome back everyone. I hope you all had a lovely summer and you are all well rested. We are all looking forward to a very happy school year working together “Uile le chéile”.
10 Year Celebrations!!!! Scoil na Naomh Uilig opened its doors 10 years ago and we are celebrating our 10th birthday this year!!
General Purpose Fees 2017/2018
Thank you to everyone who has paid. Please note that the G.P. Fee in our school also covers Book Rental. To facilitate the distribution of books for the Rental Scheme we would appreciate if you could pay the book rental portion of your General Purpose Fee immediately. Homework journals will be distributed on Friday 15th September and will only be given to those pupils that have the book rental portion of the fee paid, or those families that have committed to the Easy Payment Scheme which is available through the office. The balance of the fees must be paid in full by Friday 22nd Sept 2017. Payments can be made through an online payment system which can be accessed through the link on the school’s website. Please note that we do not have any facility in the school office for debit/credit card payments. If you have difficulty with this please contact the office.

SAFETY NOTICE
Yard Supervision in the mornings - the school grounds are only supervised from 8.35am in the mornings. Please do not leave your children into the school before this time.
Reminder to pedestrians – please do not use the main gate to access the school in the mornings.
School Car Parking Issues
When dropping off children to the school in the morning, if driving please use the set-down area and do not alight from your car. Due to the growing number of staff in the school, the lower car park is needed for staff parking. At present some members of staff are unable to find a parking space in the mornings.
The set down area at the main front door is for people who have a parking permit only.
