OPEN MORNING and OPEN EVENING

28 November 2019

OPEN MORNING and OPEN EVENING

We invite any prospective parents to view our Primary school and Nursery Unit, receive information about the methods and approaches we use in school and meet the children, staff, parents and governors. We have arranged an OPEN MORNING and OPEN EVENING on Tuesday 3rd December from 9.30 a.m. – 11.00 a.m. (with Principal’s address at 9.45am) and 6.30pm – 8.00 p.m (with Principal’s address at 6.45pm). During these sessions you will have the opportunity to tour the school, talk to staff, parents and governors and see the children at work in the classrooms. 

Please inform any friends and family, who may have pre-school children, of our OPEN MORNING and OPEN EVENING. Please note that it is essential that parents of Nursery children complete an online application for a place in Primary 1 as there is no automatic transfer from Nursery into Primary 1.

Enrolment for Nursery and Primary One – September 2020

To apply for places in Nursery and Primary One for September 2020 the Education Authority requires parents to submit an online application. Please note the following important points:

  1. Information on NURSERY and PRIMARY ONE ADMISSIONS PROCEDURES and the ADMISSIONS CRITERIA to be used in the allocation of places for September 2020 will be published on the E.A’s website from 19th December, 2019.

  2. Parents will be expected to make ONLINE applications for Nursery and Primary One by using the E.A’s online portal which will be available to receive applications from 7th January, 2020 at 12 noon until 30th January, 2020 at 12 noon.
  3. Parents will have until 7th February, 2020 at 12 noon to provide documentation in support of their applications. This information which will include birth certificates and any other information as required by a school’s admissions criteria should be brought to the FIRST preference school. Help and advice will, of course, be available from school on Open Morning and Open Evening and also throughout the application procedure. We are planning to hold an application workshop for any parent wanting help with the online application process on Thursday 9th January 2020 from 1pm to 3pm. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you wish to discuss any of these matters.
