The Admissions Notice for 2021/ 22 has been published. See the 'Admission 2021/22' page on this website for details.
Applications will be accepted between 1st - 31st January 2021.  This is usually the time of year when we are all busy preparing and donating shoeboxes for children affected by poverty in Africa or Eastern Europe. It is an opportunity to share a little joy and excitement with children who live in circumstances where these can sometimes be in short supply. This year the Christmas Shoebox Appeal has gone online. To make a virtual box of your own with your child, you can visit www.teamhope.ie at any time, and choose the items you would like to add. The closing date is December 23rd, but the Christmas Shoebox Appeal Week is being ran from 9th – 15th November.
Thank you for your continued support and please tag the school twitter account if you have any pictures of the children getting involved in any activities using the hashtags #TeamUpForTeamHope and #ChristmasShoeboxAppeal.  The annual Scholastic Book Fair will not take place in the school this year. However, you can still avail of Scholastic’s huge selection of books through the school’s Scholastic Book Club.
If you choose to buy books from Scholastic through our School Book Club the school will gain reward points which can be used to purchase additional library books and supplementary reading books. Postage is free to schools, so if you decide to purchase a book please address it to your child at Sixmilebridge N.S. We will pass the delivery on to pupils/ parents when it arrives. You will find the link to our Book Club below. It will also be available on the on the school’s website and on The Parent’s Association Facebook page.

We hope that you and your families are well during these challenging times. This unprecedented public health crisis means that all aspects of everyday life now face significant disruption, including work and school. We have linked some suggested activities and resources (Exceptional Closure Activities Tab Above or click on the buttons below) that you may wish to avail of with your children over the coming weeks. You will know what is most appropriate for your children and families during this difficult period. The activities and resources suggested do not need to be used and teachers will not be formally monitoring or assessing them on our return to school. They are intended merely as potentially helpful suggestions. The suggestions listed should be treated as a menu, you can choose as many, as few, or none if you wish. We respectfully suggest that you encourage your children to continue reading and to keep up work on Maths tables. Best wishes, Sixmilebridge National School |
