Dear Parent / Guardian,
RE: Re-opening of Scoil an Fhraoich Mhóir
I hope you and your families are keeping well.

Re-opening the school safely will require the co-operation of all members of our School Community – BoM, School Leadership, Staff, Parents and Pupils. We will all be called on to play our part in ensuring that re-opening of the school is done in a safe manner which prevents the spread of the virus and allows the vital work of Teaching and Learning to proceed with as little disruption as possible.
We have been working on our plan for the safe reopening of the school for some weeks now in line with the DES COVID-19 Response Plan for the safe and sustainable reopening of Primary and Special Schools, which is available on our website www.heathns.ie and at www.education.ie .

We are really looking forward to welcoming our children back to school and will be doing all that we can to ensure that the return to school is a safe and enjoyable experience for the children. We will be in touch again in the coming days with more specific details which will be available through the school app and website. Please make sure and check both channels on a daily basis from now on for updates.
Le meas
