Today is the feast day of St. Thérèse of Lisieux. She reminds us that you don’t have to do great things to be a great Saint.
May St. Thérèse continue to guide us as we follow her example.
Our school will celebrate St Thérèse at 11am mass tomorrow in St Joseph’s Church.
We are delighted to have past pupil Trent Doherty with us today at Sports Day. What an inspiration he is to all our pupils. Trent is so humble & kind to all the pupils wanting autographs and a chat about playing for Liverpool. We are all so proud of you! You are a superstar! ⭐️
🌞 Please remember to apply sunscreen to your child/children before school every day this week. The weather is forecast to be very hot and sunny! It is recommended that children bring a bottle of water to school also to help stay hydrated. 🌞
Some of our children were honoured and excited to represent our school and to come together with their peers to celebrate the anniversary of the cathedral and to see the statue of Carlo Acutis being blessed. @derrydiocese

🎉🤩 Congratulations to our Families Connect group who finished the programme today. We had a wonderful group of parents and children who joined in each session with great enthusiasm. Thank you to Laura from GSAP who facilitated the sessions with Miss McCaul. 🤩🎉@SCUKNI
💛💙 We were so proud to present Roisin O’Hara from @trocaire with a cheque for £2670 this morning. Thank you so much to all our wonderful families for their support and helping to raise this money during Trócaire’s Lenten Campaign. We really appreciate your kindness. 💙💛
Our Families Connect focus this week was Numeracy and counting. The children loved sorting their ‘Nice Things’ and developing their counting skills. Well done everyone 👏🤩@SCUKNI
Three of our wonderful Primary 6 children attended the Mass of Chrism in St Eugene’s Cathedral this morning with Miss McCaul. They really enjoyed this special mass as they will be Confirmed next year with the Oil of Chrism blessed at this Mass. 🙏✝️@derrydiocese @steugenesderry
Our Families Connect group had a fantastic time this week discussing Praise. We had great fun making ‘Praise Badges’ to be used at home. Well done everyone. 🥳🤩
Four of our wonderful Primary 7 children accompanied Miss McCaul to Mass this morning in St Eugene’s Cathedral to mark the launch of Catholic Schools Week. ✝️ @derrydiocese
School will open as usual tomorrow morning - Thurs 19th. If driving to school take care outside the main gate & in the lay-by as there is still a lot of slush & ice and it is very slippy. Please ask your child to take care when walking into school and in the school grounds also.
⭐️ There are links on our website for literacy and numeracy activities. Please encourage your children to spend time on these activities today. They can be found on https://t.co/vuAsm7EGpe by following Home —> Parents —> Useful links ⭐️
After monitoring the weather conditions overnight, we have taken the decision to remain closed. The roads/pavements outside the school and the school grounds are still hazardous and we don't want to put our pupils, parents or staff at risk. Thank you for your continued support.
❄️As yet we have made no decision whether we will be closed tomorrow. We will let you know tomorrow morning as we continue to monitor the weather conditions. The health and safety of our children, parents and staff is at the forefront of every decision we make.❄️
Our Primary 6 & 7 children were treated to a visit from our Mayor, Sandra Duffy, Councillors Brian Tierney and Rory Farrell.
Our children asked lots of interesting questions and listened so well to the fantastic answers. Some lucky children even got to try on the Mayor’s Chain!
