Congratulations to Students from 1 Poyntz and Ella Grogan from 2nd Yr who have all had some work published in the Fighting Words "5 is no limit" publication. Fighting Words invited people from 12 to 212 to share creative responses to their 5km radius during lockdown. Students sent in a photo of something within their 5km and their creative piece that was inspired by it.

The staff, students and community of Loreto College Foxrock wish to extend their deepest sympathies to the family of Brian Cannon, who passed away on 21st March 2021. Brian was Chairperson to the Board of Management of Loreto College Foxrock since 2014. Brian’s contribution to Education and to our school was immense. He brought great humanity and wisdom to his role and was most giving of his time. Brian will be remembered with great affection in Loreto College. He was an Educator and a gentleman through and through. ‘May He support us all the day long, till the shades lengthen, and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed, and the fever of life is over and our work is done! Then in his mercy may He give us safe lodging and a holy rest, and peace at last.’ John Henry Newman.

A huge achievement for the girls. We look forwarding to seeing what happens next. Best of luck. Hilary and Henrietta have been busy training over the last couple of weeks for their virtual trip to Cambridge this weekend to debate in the Cambridge Schools' Competition. It's an extremely challenging competition. Best of luck to them both. Many thanks to Ms Lea for all her hard work, helping to give the girls lots of practice and training.

On Sunday 23rd of Feb Hilary and Henrietta competed in the Ireland heats of the Cambridge Schools' Debates and have qualified for the Cambridge Finals in March. It's a superb achievement as there are only 4 Irish schools qualifying. Normally they'd be travelling to the UK for the finals - but as that can't happen that year, they will participate via Zoom. Well done girls we are all so proud of you. We will keep you posted on how the do. Good luck.

Dear Parents and Guardians, We are now in our third week back at school. We have received a very positive response from students, teachers and parents regarding the online experience since the 11th January. Full Schedule - all Years & Attendance There is a full schedule in place for all students in all years, 1st to 6th year. Your daughter should be in attendance for all classes, if she is not able to attend school on a particular day or part of a day, please use the notes section on the App. Your daughter will be marked absent accordingly and should not message teachers directly re absences without the back up of a note from a parent. Following Teacher Instructions Students are required to have their camera on in class unless otherwise instructed by their teacher. The same applies for microphones. If there is a consistent problem with your daughter's camera or microphone, please let the school know by sending a note through the App. We have received great feedback from students that they are enjoying seeing each other and especially being able to chat when doing group work in break out rooms. This interaction is vital for wellbeing. Submission of Work Please encourage your daughter to submit her work on time. If there is a difficulty this should be communicated to the teacher directly. Fitness & Sports Sessions Fitness classes after school are now being run by Brendon Carolan for all students. The classes are scheduled once a week for each year group. Given the poor weather we are experiencing this is a great opportunity for your daughter to be active. I hope the girls engage and enjoy these sessions. Please see the App for details. Student Council Our student council are working on some very exciting fun initiatives to keep our students connected and engaged over the next few weeks. Please keep an eye on our app and Microsoft teams for more information. Thank you once again for the very high levels of participation from all students. We know that there are great challenges to online learning and to the situations that we are all in at present. Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you have concerns about your daughter. When we know more about the plans for a phased return to school, we will be in touch. Please stay safe and well.
