We are pleased to inform you that the Department of Education has been operating a free primary school book scheme since September 2023. This initiative now also includes books for the junior cycle and covers copy books as well. We hope this scheme will extend to Leaving Certificate students in the near future. In the meantime, we kindly request parents to contribute €50 at the primary and junior cycle levels, which includes costs for administration, photocopying, art materials, and other necessary supplies for your child. For Leaving Certificate Applied students, we ask for an annual contribution of €150 to cover these expenses. Additionally, please note that stationery items such as pencils, pens, glue, and similar supplies are required to be purchased by parents, as they will not be provided by the school. Thank you for your understanding and support in ensuring that our students have the necessary resources for their education.
