It’s great to be back in school and hear the sound of children return to Scoil Lorcáin.

Please remember:

• While all children will be welcome back to school, we would remind parents that, where children are displaying colds, coughs or flu like symptoms, they should not be sent to school. Children who display such symptoms in school will be isolated and parents asked to collect them from school.
• If any member of your household has travelled abroad recently, please make sure that your son has isolated for 14 days before returning to school.
• Pupils will independently enter and exit the school via a designated gate and must use this gate at all times.
• We will have to start with staggered drop off and collection times as outlined in the post below.
• Please make sure that your son has washed his hands before leaving for school.
• Pupils are asked NOT to bring their own sanitisers to school as hand washing facilities will be available in the school.
• In line with Public Health Advice, the use of face coverings / masks by pupils in primary school should not occur.

Please note that some or all of the above is subject to change in line with updated public health guidelines.

Yours sincerely

Harry Flynn

Principal
