6th Year Study
Created : 11 Sep 2020, 11:18 AM
Archived : 11 Nov 2020, 12:00 AM
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.

Thank you to Dara for taking the time to take the call and to answer questions and many thanks to Ms Houlihan for organisng and facilitating this workshop.
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.
Update - School Uniforms

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

Well done and many thanks to all our staff and students for ensuring the first week back in school was a safe and positive one for everyone.
Every day we will review and adapt what is required in the building to make it a safe place for everyone. A particular well done to our new 1st Year students who navigated their way successfully around the school, met new friends, new teachers and complied with all our new safety protocols.
In order to ensure that the first full day back on Monday goes well for everyone we would ask that students are careful to only pack necessary materials for class. We will be working with teachers next week to ensure that no student is carrying too many materials as they move around the school. In particular we ask that all 1st Year students only bring their school journal and a copybook for each subject that day to school. We ask that parents please ensure that no student leaves for school in the morning with a heavy school bag. Where unsure about bringing books to school for different subjects we ask students to default to leaving them at home for now. Where possible we ask teachers to use e-books on the data projector and upload materials to google classroom to avoid unnecessary materials being carried to school.
Wishing everyone a lovely weekend.
Kind regards,
The Management Team
