Dear students, parents and guardians, Schools are being asked to observe a minute’s silence in memory of Ashling Murphy, who will be laid to rest tomorrow. The 23-year-old teacher was killed on Wednesday evening as she ran by the Grand Canal in Tullamore, Co. Offaly. Her funeral mass will take place tomorrow at 11.00 am. To coincide with the funeral, the INTO, ASTI, FÓRSA and the TUI have asked that students and teachers in schools across the state fall silent in her memory. "All schools across the country are being asked to observe a minute’s silence at 11am on Tuesday, 18 January in memory of Ashling Murphy,” the unions said in a statement. "We are encouraging schools to fall silent to remember a beloved primary school teacher, taken far too soon, and show our solidarity with her friends, family, colleagues and pupils as Ashling is laid to rest." As there are no classes tomorrow, I am asking all students, parents and guardians to please pause in whatever you are doing tomorrow at 11am to observe a minute's silence. The staff of CPC will observe a minute's silence together during our training. With thanks J Leonard

Tomorrow Friday is a big day for Emma and Charlotte the awards ceremony will take place tomorrow afternoon. Regardless of the outcome the girls are winners! The have acquitted themselves well with the judges. The exhibition is a virtual on line event this Year 2022. The girls were interviewed by the judges in the online format and the judges were certainly impressed by their knowledge of the subject matter and in particular way by their confidence in making their pitch. Mr Leonard has previously made the podcast of their interview with Brian Byrne available in the school app. Well worth the listen. We hope to broadcast some of the award ceremony beginning at 1 00pm. We wish them well tomorrow afternoon. We expect that this will not be their last visit to the BT Young Scientist Exhibition. Looks like they may have 'contracted the Science virus' for which their is no known antidote. Professor Tess Lambe sends her congratulations and interestingly enough she was a Young Science Entrant

Circular Announcing Oral Language and Music Practical Test Arrangements for Leaving Certificate 2022

Dear students, parents and guardians, the state examinations commission has issued important information regarding the Leaving Certificate oral language examinations and the Leaving Certificate Music practical performance test for the 2022 Leaving Certificate. For the 2022 Leaving Certificate, the oral language examinations and the Leaving Certificate Music practical performance test will be conducted, by SEC appointed examiners, in the Easter holiday period using a revised 6-day model to run from Saturday 9th April to Thursday 14th April. For the 2022 Leaving Certificate (Established), oral language examinations will be held in Irish, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Russian and, for the first time, Mandarin Chinese, Polish, Lithuanian and Portuguese. This circular does not apply to the oral or practical performance tests in the Leaving Certificate Applied. In a change to the normal (pre-COVID-19) arrangements, the oral language examinations and the Music practical performance test, will be conducted over a six-day period commencing on Saturday 9th April and concluding on Thursday 14th April 2022. The examinations will be conducted by visiting SEC appointed examiners, recruited and appointed to schools by the SEC. In the event that it is not possible to facilitate all of the examinations in the 6-day period, two contingency days have been identified. The contingency days are Thursday 7th and Friday 8th April in 2022. Decisions on the use of the contingency days will be made by the SEC in conjunction with the SEC examiners. The SEC will need to be satisfied that it is not practicable to hold the examinations without availing of one or both of those contingency days. It will not be up to individual schools to seek to arrange examinations on these days in the first instance. Candidates who miss their oral language examination and/or Music practical performance test due to illness will be facilitated in mid to late May with a later examination. This is in line with existing practice. Further details will be issued by the SEC in due course. The full circular can be accessed here: www.examinations.ie/misc-doc/EN-EX-14529694.pdf
