Dear Parents and Guardians

I wish to inform you of my intention to retire at the end of this academic year.  It has been a great privilege and an honour to have been Principal of the school since 2012.  Loreto College Foxrock is a wonderful school with a great community spirit.  

I will be in touch again before the end of the year but for today, I wish to thank you for your ongoing support which has enabled the school and the students to flourish.

Is mise le meas

Well done to Elaine Zhang in TY on winning Gold in the 100m Butterfly and Bronze in 100m Backstroke at a recent schools swimming gala.  Elaine has also been selected for the National Swimming Team (14-18 year olds).  Elaine represented Ireland at a recent International Competition in Lisbon.

Best of Luck to Elaine who will represent Loreto Foxrock at the All Ireland Schools Gala. We will be rooting for you on 23rd March.

Dear Parents & Guardians,

We would like to remind all those entering and exiting the school premises to be mindful of other road users, including local residents and pedestrians.

We have received concerns from residents regarding incidents where vehicles exiting the school have blocked access to neighbouring properties.

In particular, we ask that parents and drivers:

• Adhere to road markings, especially yellow box junctions, to avoid obstructing access.
• Drive with caution when exiting the school, being aware of pedestrians and vehicles turning into nearby complexes.
• Be patient and considerate, especially during busy times when traffic is heavy.

Ensuring the safety and accessibility of all road users is a shared responsibility, and we appreciate your cooperation in being mindful of others.

Thank you for your support in keeping the area around the school safe for everyone.

Dear Parents/Guardians

The 2nd Year History Trip to Johnstown Castle will be taking place on Monday 10th March.

Students must be in school in the canteen by 8:00 am sharp for roll call.

We will be taking private FCD Coaches to Johnstown Castle and back to Foxrock by 4pm.

Students should wear their school tracksuits and rain coats.

Students should bring a packed lunch and water.

Students should wear appropriate runners or trainers for walking and perhaps bring a spare pair of runners and dry socks. 

Students should bring with them any personal medication that they may require and inform teachers of any additional needs. 

The students will be supervised at all times by their history teachers.

Mobile phones are only permitted for emergencies and should be otherwise switched off for the duration of the trip.

Looking forward to the day out.
