Our school maintains a database of photographs from school events held over the years. It has become customary to take photos/videos of students engaged in school activities and events in the interest of creating a pictorial as well as historical record of life at the school. Photographs/videos of student's and in some cases their name, may be published on our school website and app. Consent is requested from each parent. Please see images below to help guide parents in completing the Picture Permission form for each student on the app. It is important that we receive this information. We are hoping to create a digital prospectus for our school next week and we would love for your son to be involved. Please ensure you have completed the Picture Permission form so that we can proceed with this project. Many thanks, The Management Team

Evening and Night Study for 6th Year students only begins on Monday. If you have not already signed up for study via the app (school shop) please do so to ensure a desk is assigned for your son on Monday. Due to covid health and safety procedures the flexibility for students to choose whether they would like to sign up for two or three evening or night study sessions is limited. Once a student signs up for study a desk will be assigned to a student for the term and priority will have to be given to those attending for the full week. If there are spaces left we will do our best to accommodate students hoping to do fewer sessions but priority will have to be given for Monday to set-up students for full weeks. We appreciate your support in following these safety protocols. Study queries can be sent to Mr Joyce (Study Coordinator) via the 'Note From Parent' section on the app.

Update - Materials for School

Dear Parents, Guardians & Students, Many thanks for your support as we navigate our way through the beginning of the school year without locker facilities. We appreciate that this can be very frustrating for staff, students and parents/guardians alike. Where possible every teacher is using e-books in the classroom and uploading work onto google classroom to help avoid the need to have heavy textbooks and workbooks in class. As we continue to work with staff and students to find effective methods of communicating what is required for class each day, we ask that from home parents and guardians please ensure that your son is not leaving for school with a heavy school bag. No student will be sanctioned for not having materials in class. This afternoon the Principal spoke to all students about managing school bags and reiterated the message that when in doubt about bringing certain books to school, always default to leaving them at home. We trust that our senior students will manage to bring only the necessary materials to school but we can appreciate that our Junior students may be apprehensive about not having all materials for class each day. Once again, please be assured that no student should be worried if without materials any given day. We will continue to keep in contact in regards to this matter and appreciate your concerns in regards to it.

Good afternoon Parents, Guardians and Students, Many thanks for your support with our uniform policy here in Naas CBS. For health and safety reasons all windows and doors are being left open throughout the day to keep the building ventilated. We are permitting students (if needed) to wear a coat over the school uniform. By no means is the school jumper to be replaced by a different jumper or hoodie. We expect every student to be in full uniform and on P.E days students can come to school in their P.E gear. Outside of these exceptions every student must adhere to our uniform policy. Many thanks, The Management Team
