After School Activities for Children
The school facilitates parents and children by making rooms available for activities outside of school hours conducted by private individuals who are Independent Contractors. These activities are not part of the school curriculum and are not regulated by the school which only provides facilities to enable these independent contractors and parents to make arrangements between themselves. Parents discharge any fees payable directly to the independent contractor who is responsible for all aspects of the service provided. Contractors have their own insurance. While the school makes every effort to facilitate all parties, neither the Board of Management of the school nor the trustees of the Parish can accept any liability whatsoever for any matter arising in connection with such activities or in neglect or default of any such independent contractor whatsoever.

Our after-school tech club is returning on the 8th November. Get your kids coding, engineering and building. Our STEM projects include Lego Mindstorms EV3 Robots and LEGO WeDo 2.0 which will challenge your child to engineer through play, learn programming concepts, and discover cool technology. It also promotes creativity, co-operation and teamwork. Your child will also learn basic coding principles through Scratch, Hopscotch, Tynker and code.org through the use of iPads and laptops. All of this will be done under the watchful eyes of qualified teachers.

​The club continues for a second 6-week spell on Thursday 8th November in the Junior Building in Scoil Chroí Iosa. It runs each Thursday. Note the time has changed and the club will now start at 3 and finish at 4.30. We are pleased to announce the price of the camp has reduced to €89. It is ideal for children between the ages of 8-14.
