School Return 2022

Dear Parents/Guardians

  

Talbot Senior School reopens it doors next Tuesday 30th August at 9am. School Gates will open at 8.50am

5th and 6th classes to enter by the TOP GATE

3rd and 4th classes to enter by the MIDDLE GATE

As our yards are small and we have a lot of pupils and staff on yard we ask parents to drop pupils at the gate. If you need to speak with the teacher or another staff member that can be arranged.

 

SCHOOL BOOK PAYMENTS

We have an online facility to pay for books online. This is available through our Talbot APP. If you need information on setting up the APP on your phone, please ring Natasha on the school number and she will be happy to talk you through the process

Thank you to all who have paid for their books over the Summer months. For those who have paid in full, all your child’s books and stationery will be available in their classroom on the first day. The online facility will be kept open over the month of September to allow parents to pay for books in instalments of €30.

Only those accounts paid in full will receive their books.

Cash /cheque payments will also be accepted at the school. School shop will be open from 9.15am till 12.45pm everyday for the first few weeks. If you are experiencing any hardship in relation to the cost of returning to school, please ring the school to speak to myself or Ms Ni Dhuill.

 

Third classes

I would like to especially welcome our third classes to school on Tuesday. As our yards are small, we would like to invite the third classes to come in at the later time of 9.10am. This will allow for parents to come in as well on the first day. From then onwards parents will need to drop them to the gate.

For Health and Safety reasons there is no walkway through Nano Nagle Junior school to our school. Pupils May only enter the school though their designated gates and exit through their designated gates. We would appreciate your co-operation in this matter

 

We are looking forward to seeing all our pupils again and hope you all have had a restful summer

 

Kind regards

Ms Madden

Principal

Sleep Week Round Up

Last week in Talbot, we held a very successful Sleep Week. We spent lots of time focusing on setting up good sleep routines and checking in with ourselves to see how sleeping better made us feel each day.

On Monday, some 5th class pupils taught us about the importance of sleep for our mental health through a whole-school Zoom. Each class also watched a Talbot News Sleep Special about how sleep can affect our day-to-day lives and we had ‘Sleep Homework’ each night where we focused on setting up good sleep routines each night.

At the end of the week, we celebrated all of our hard work with a whole school Pyjama Party!

A huge well done to the whole school on making such a huge effort with their sleep! Keep it up over the coming weeks!
