Tháinig Deirdre ó Gaelbhratach ar an gCéadaoin agus chuir sí iontas mór orainn. Thug sí ár gcéad Gaelbhratach dúinn. Tá sceitimíní athas orainn go léir. Go raibh míle maith agaibh as an gcabhair agus an tacaíocht le dhá bhliain anuas. 

Deirdre from Gaelbhratach visited us on Wednesday and she had a wonderful surprise for us. She gave us our first Gaelbhratach! We are absolutely thrilled. Thank you all for the help and support you have given us over the last two years from the Gaelbhratach committee - Saorla, JJ, Ruby, Isobel, Kate, Cathal, Lucy, Sarah, Ms Harte, Mrs McCarthy and Mrs Wycherley. 

Well done to some of our 2nd Class A and B pupils who made their Sacrament of Reconciliation recently.

Thank you to everyone in our school community for supporting our book fair last week. A whopping €3652.00 was spent on books. We are thrilled as as our school will receive 60% of this amount to spend on literacy resources for our school. 

Thank you once again and we hope that our students are enjoying reading their new books! 

We will be holding our Book Fair 2021 from Tuesday 21st to Monday 26th April, 

​Children will get the opportunity to view the books and stationary for sale at the Book Fair in their pods. In place of this physical browsing we are sending you the attached order form and catalogue to browse through the books on offer at this year’s Book Fair. Also attached is a stationary price list.

​When you and you child have selected which books or stationary you like, you simply follow the instructions to pay over the phone on your order form. Your child will then bring this form into school, where we will collect these forms and in return give your child their purchased books/stationary.

There will be no facility for payment at school, therefore it is very important you complete the order form for pay by phone carefully. Each child has been given the order form and the stationary price list, as attached, and you are free to browse the catalogue and make your payment over the phone from today. We will be able to give the children their purchased goods from Tuesday 21st of April .

How to:
1. Browse catalogue here: https://bookfairs.scholastic.ie/bookcases/wtr
2. Fill in order form that has been given to your child/download again below. 
3. Pay for books over the phone on 01 5686328 quoting school number 90000244.

5. Your child will receive their books/stationary. 

Looking forward to seeing all the budding book worms around the school with their new books!

In order to celebrate St. Patrick's day, staff and students alike in Scoil Naomh Eltin dressed in their finest greenery. This fortnight has and will be filled with songs, poems agus, ar ndóigh, iarracht den scoth ár dteanga dhúchais a labhairt. Well done to the wonderful effort made by all and happy St. Patrick's Day!

A thuismitheoirí / chaomhnóirí agus páistí,
Tá comórtas ar siúl ar scoil an tseachtain seo don Seachtain na Gaeilge. Ba mhaith linn an oiread Gaeilge agus is féidir a chloisteáil i rith an lae scoile agus go háirithe sa chlós. Bíonn na múinteoirí ag éisteacht don rang is fearr gach lá agus beidh duais ann don rang is fearr ar an Aoine. Seo iad frásaí úsáideacha don scoil, don chlós agus don bháile. Déan iarracht Gaeilge a labhairt!! 

Parents/Guardians, boys and girls, 
As part of Seachtain na Gaeilge, we are having a competition in school this week. We want to hear as much Gaeilge as possible throughout the school day, especially on the yard. Teachers will be listening out for the best class each day and there will be a prize for the class with the most points on Friday. Here are some useful phrases for school, the yard and at home. Let's all make a big effort to speak Gaeilge this week!!
