Dear Parents/Guardians,
Our Book Fair finished last Friday, it was a great success and sales amounted to €4030
A big thank you to the Parents Association for running it so efficiently all week, and to all parents, pupils and staff for their support. The school benefits in books based on a percentage of all books sold. Well done also, to our winners in our book week competition and to all the pupils who took part!
Art Display: St. Thomas’ Parents’ Association / Images School Art Exhibitions. (imagesschoolart.com) will host a pupil’s art display on
Wednesday 5th December from 1.30pm-3pm & 5pm to 7.30pm in both halls. (2 sessions )
Every pupil in the school will have a framed piece of Art on display in the hall. All art works will be numbered individually with a corresponding reference for your child. This is a social evening and not a fundraising night. All framed art pieces are available for purchase at cost. (€10). There is no compulsion to purchase, and any unsold pieces will be returned unframed to the school.
