Dear Parents/Guardians of 6th yr students, As the Leaving Certificate exams are coming to an end over the next week, it is really important that you sit down with your son/daughter and go through their CAO application with them. CAO closes on July 1st but until then students can amend their lists of course choices- each year some students forget to amend their lists or even to add any courses to their lists and miss out on a college place offer- do not let your child be one of these.. I know students are tired as exams finish (and many are focussed on holidays coming up) but this is very important future planning and needs to be done. Please do the following with your CAO applicant: - Check that they have put courses on both the Level 8 and Level 6/7 lists. -Make sure the courses are listed in 'order of preference' i.e. - the course they really want goes in place number 1 and so on down the list. - There should be courses on the lists over a range of points -Discuss with your child how they feel the exams went for them and based on this - do they wish to change the order of their courses or add /remove any courses from the lists? Refer to online CAO booklet for support information - students have downloaded this booklet from www.cao.ie - Discuss practicalities such as transport links and moving away for college and the associated costs and amend the course choices accordingly - Ensure there are no courses that are 'fillers' on the lists - every course on the lists should be thoroughly researched and courses the student would be willing to attend, if offered. - Finally make sure they make any changes you both decide on to their CAO application and CHECK the final lists online before you submit. A definite date for results is not available to us at the moment but it could be early September before results are out. Do not forget the PLC route is available as a back up and applications are still open for most courses - see www.qualifax.ie Wishing the students every success and please let us know in September what direction your child has chosen. Do phone the school if you wish to speak to a guidance counsellor before July 1st and the secretaries will put you in touch with us. Thank you for supporting your son/daughter through this process. Kind regards, Ms. McGee, Ms Stanley, Ms. Travers, Guidance Department.

Dear Parents/Guardians, Kildare Library Service are running a free programme of STEM workshops during June-August for children to attend in their local library along with a parent so they can explore STEM topics together. The workshops are open to kids aged 10-14 years and a parent and there will be three different topics: An introduction to robotics An introduction to 3D printing and digital fabrication An introduction to chemistry with a forensics crime scene investigation workshop Parents are widely recognised as key influencers of their children’s interest in STEM and these workshops seek to raise parents’ confidence in STEM and to better equip them to support their children in this area.

Career Decisions plays a central role in our young adolescents’ lives. Having worked in Career Guidance in state schools and private practise for over 20 years, and a parent of 4, I recognise the importance of being informed & prepared. Parents can find themselves overwhelmed when trying to help direct their son/daughter with studies and choosing Career Paths. The aim is to ensure both students and their parents go into each year group - TY, 5th and 6th year in Senior Cycle clear of what happens, guidelines and expectations of what happens in career guidance relative to the year groups: from work experience, subject choice, CAO, HPAT to applying for SUSI grants. I will be joined by guest speakers from colleges, guidance and parents/students. If you cannot make 12.30pm Monday, the session will be recorded and provided on www.synergycareers.ie. To access recordings, sign up as a member, options range from Free, Basic and Premium for Individuals and Schools. Viewing Options: Each webinar is hosted on zoom, links are provided once you register. If the webinar reaches full capacity make sure to go to our facebook page where it will be broadcast live www.facebook.com/synergycareers?ref=hl Alternatively, if you cannot make 12.30pm Monday, ALL webinars are recorded so you won't miss out.
