Arrangements for collecting children early from our temporary school:

Parents please note – there are no cars permitted onto the school grounds. Parking is available at the car park across the road. Parents should go to the pedestrian gate – which is the main entrance gate for the children, and call the Office. The Secretary will bring out to you a Sign Out Form and your child. No child can be released from school without a Sign Out Form being completed. Written notice needs to be provided in advance of a child being collected early from school. Please avoid collecting children over the lunchtime period unless absolutely necessary.  We appreciate your co-operation.

Children starting in 3rd class in September 2022.

All parents of children starting in our school in September 2022 will have received a confirmation email from the Office.  If you have not received an email confirming a place for your child you need to contact the Secretary immediately on secretary@ssnlaytown.ie  We will be in contact with new parents in due course regarding an Open event.

Public Health updates:
We are expecting further update from Public Health.  In the interim, the Public Health Schools teams have requested schools to regularly reinforce these messages to our school communities to help keep everybody safe.
Your child should not attend school if they are unwell.
Before attending school:

  • Symptoms– your children must not attend school if they have any symptoms of Covid-19 infection.
  • Symptomatic household members– a reminder to parents that no child should be attending school if they have any household member who has signs or symptoms of Covid-19; they should be restricting their movements until it is clear whether the household member has Covid-19 infection or not.
  • Close contacts– children or parents need to restrict their movements and undergo testing if they have been told by their doctor / HSE services that they are a close contact of a case of Covid-19; they should not be attending any school.

We appreciate your support and co-operation in helping us to keep our school safe and open, by abiding by the national public health measures currently in place at all times e.g. restricting movements and social contacts, social distancing, use of facial coverings and hand hygiene.  It is our priority to continue to provide a safe and healthy environment for your children and our staff.
