We had a fabulous time in school over the last week celebrating Seachtain na Gaeilge. The boys and girls completed many fun and exciting activities in their classes and together as a whole school to celebrate the Irish language and Irish traditions.
We hope you all have a lovely St Patrick’s Day weekend with your family and friends.

Dear Parents,
Seachtain na Gaeilge
We are currently preparing for Seachtain na Gaeilge (Irish Language week) in our school and there are lots of lovely things happening for the children.
Children are learning additional songs, poems and dances as Gaeilge and we have had a focus on Gaeilge in assembly. We are making a big effort to speak more Irish to each other – I’m sure your child can teach you some phrases!
The children are busy playing games, singing and making art to celebrate ‘Seachtain na Gaeilge’ and the school is decorated with beautiful creative pieces.
We will enjoy … read more »
The Advice Clinics detailed in the document attached may be of help to some parents and families. They are free of charge, open to everyone and provide valuable information.
Please remember to talk to your child’s teacher if you are concerned about your child’s progress in school.
At Mary, Mother of Hope Schools, we strive to work together with parents to ensure that the children in our care experience the best possible experience during their time in our school.
One way of achieving this is by developing strong links between school and home. With the support of City of Dublin Education Training Board (CDETB) we hold parent classes to help welcome and involve parents in school life.
If you are interested in joining any of our classes please contact the office at info@hopejns.ie
