Leisure Card Initiative for Young People - Webinar for Parents

Planet Youth have been lobbying as part of their initiative to have a government funded leisure card scheme for young people implemented in Ireland – similar to the one in place in Iceland. In Iceland, this involves an annual grant of €350 per child to spend solely on hobbies, sports and extracurricular activities. The results of this have been excellent in improving children’s wellbeing and decreasing the likelihood of social and behavioural problems. Planet Youth is hosting a webinar for parents on Thursday, 19th November from 2.00pm-3.15pm. To register for this, please go to event.webinarjam.com/register/15/7qk60tv This webinar will be attended by government ministers and it is hoped that a high parental attendance will put additional pressure on them to approve the initiative.

The students in class 2/2 are leading an initiative in the school to highlight the issue of homophobic, biphobic and transphobic bullying in schools. In conjunction with schools across Ireland, they are asking students to wear jumpers and jackets in their house colours tomorrow, Friday, to highlight the issue of such bullying and to show that we as a school community recognise that there is no place for that behaviour in Taylors or in any other school.

Dear Parent, Your daughter will be bringing home an envelope today for the Planet Youth survey, which will be conducted in our school shortly. Planet Youth is an important new initiative in our region and is being supported by the school. You can find more information about it at www.planetyouth.ie. There are two letters inside the envelope, one for you and one for your child. If either of you wish to abstain from the survey you can do so. Simply sign the appropriate letter and return it to the school office by Friday the 20th of November. Your child will then be excused on the day of the survey. If you don’t return either letter, your child will be included in the survey.

Many thanks to all our students and staff who submitted their suggestions as to how to improve our outdoor areas. By far the most common suggestion was in relation to additional seating outside. Other suggestions mentioned a number of times included installing a covered area; increasing the number of flowers and trees; and painting/decorating some of the walls. We very much appreciate all your suggestions and will bring them to the meeting with the landscape architects when me meet them this coming week.
