As we near the end of the summer holidays, I hope that everyone has enjoyed the break from school and is looking forward to seeing friends and teachers on your return.

We hope that this year we will return to a period of uninterrupted schooling. As you know, we have been asked by the Department of Education to undertake a similar testing programme for the return of students, as we did in March earlier this year. To safely schedule this, will mean a staggered start to the term with students returning on different dates.

This process worked well in March, and we have planned along similar lines. As communicated prior to the summer holidays, we have planned for students to be tested and return to school on the following dates outlined in the Return to School Letter Sept 2021
