Dear parent/ guardian
(Please use the translate option above if required)
We are delighted to welcome the children back to school on Monday 1st September and we look forward to the new school year.
The school day begins at 9.15am for all children and children are welcome to come to school from 8am in the morning. The children in P1 & 2 will finish at 2pm and the P3-7 will finish at 3.10pm. Any children who are being collected from school at 3.10pm must be collected from the school yard to ensure everyone leaves safely. If your child is walking home please ensure that the teacher is aware of this.
Children should attend school every day unless they are unwell and not fit to be in school. Please contact the school by email info@stpatricks.dungannon.ni.sch.uk or by phone 02887723473 to let us know if your child is not coming to school.
School dinners are available at a cost of £2.60 per day. Parents can pay cash or purchase dinner through the ParentPay app.
The school's healthy eating programme continues this year and we are asking parents to support the school by ensuring that children's snacks and lunch boxes contain foods that are low in sugar and fat content. Children's drinking bottles should only contain water.
School must be notified if your children has any food allergies or intolerances. The school can only act on advice regarding a diet which has been prescribed by a medical consultant, a doctor or registered dietician.
PE lessons will begin week commencing 8th September and children may wear appropriate clothing in on the PE day. Children should wear school uniform on the other days.
Best wishes
Seamus McCreesh
Principal
