In recent months there has been a rise in cases of measles in parts of the UK and Europe. On 7th February the HSE reported the death of an adult with confirmed measles. This is the first confirmed measles case notified in Ireland in 2024. 

 

The HSE are asking parents to be measles aware and to make sure your children have received their recommended MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccines.

 

Be measles aware  ((Poster Link)

 

Measles can be unpleasant and is a potentially serious and highly infectious disease. 

The symptoms of measles include:  

  • high fever  

  • cough  

  • runny nose  

  • rash, which usually appears on head and neck first and spreads to rest of body 

Serious complications of measles include pneumonia and encephalitis (swelling of the brain). One in five infected may need to go to hospital and it can be fatal.

 

More information about measles symptoms is available at: https://www2.hse.ie/conditions/measles/ or by searching ‘HSE measles’. 

 

If your child has been diagnosed with confirmed measles by your GP or hospital please contact your school. Children in your child's class may need to be vaccinated if they are not fully vaccinated against measles. 

 

An information letter from the HSE is attached containing information about the MMR vaccine - click on 'View PDF' to access.

Tomorrow, our school will hand out two certificates to the girls who completed their Junior Cycle exams in June 2023. (Current TYs and some 5th Years).

 

The Junior Cycle Profile or Achievement and the Other Areas of Learning certificates supplement the results script that the girls received earlier this academic year.

 

The girls achieved excellent results in their CBAs and in their involvement in other activities and learning and we are excited for them to be able to have it recognised and certificated.

 

These certs will be handed out in school during the last class tomorrow and some nice group photos will be taken.

 

Well done girls!
