Dear Parents/Students
Thank you to those of you who attended last evening’s presentation on options after 6th year. I hope that you found it informative. You can access the slides on the Guidance page of the school website at https://www.cmbm.ie/pages/guidance.php. Also, if you have any questions or would like clarification on anything, please do not hesitate to contact myself or Ms Cullinan.
Also, I want to draw your attention to an additional information session being run by the Sligo branch of the ICG, which might be of interest to some of you. For more information and to register for the event click on https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/cao-and-other-pathways-information-evening-for-parentsguardians-tickets-429072516447. This is a ticketed event for parents, so parents need to register in advance.
Finally, 6th year students were shown a CAO demo application in class this week. I would encourage any student who wishes to apply to CAO to make that application now to avail of the reduced rate.
Kind Regards
Fiona McNamee

Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),
We are again considering offering an after-school study club after Christmas (starting Monday 9th January) and up until Easter (Friday 31st March).
The club will run from 4.15pm to 6.15pm (Monday to Thursday) and from 1.30pm to 3.30pm on Fridays.
It will cost €4 per evening to attend.
Study will be offered subject to demand, thus if your child would like to attend, please complete the expression of interest form below before tomorrow, Wednesday 21s December.
Currently, we do not have enough numbers to run study in the new year, but if we had a few more applicants, we might make it work!
Kind regards,
Michelle McDermott

All students with the exception of 6th year will finish on Tuesday 20th December.
There will be supervised study available for 6th year students on Wednesday 21st up to 12.30pm. Buses will be running to accommodate these times.
The school will close for Christmas at 12.30pm on Wednesday 21st December and will reopen on Thursday 5th January 2023.
Wishing all students, staff and families a very happy and peaceful Christmas and a cheerful and healthy 2023.
Calling all students and teachers to wear a Christmas jumper or something Christmassy tomorrow Monday 19th December and donate €2 for the St Vincent de Paul who will support many families in our community this Christmas time.
Dear Parent, Student, Staff Member
In light of the orange weather warning that extends to 12pm tomorrow and in the interest of safety of all, coupled with not being able to purchase salt to treat our grounds, school will close tomorrow, Friday 16th December. We look forward to seeing all students and staff back on Monday 19th December.
It is unlikely that buses will run tomorrow - TY students should contact their employers if you are unable to attend.
Kind regards,
Michelle McDermott
