HALLOWE’EN PARTY - FRI. OCT 23RD
We are having our Halloween Party on Friday October 23rd.

Infants and 1st Class can come to school dressed up while 2nd to 6th will be dressing up at lunchtime and having their Hallowe’en Party after lunch.

There is no half day for the girls this Friday and they are being allowed home at 1.30pm and 2.30pm as usual.

We would ask parents to encourage their children to stay safe during the Hallowe’en period and to stay away from dangerous fireworks and bonfires.
