September 2020 Message from the Principal
Dear Students, Parents/Guardians,
I would like to extend a warm welcome to new students and staff as we begin the new academic year together. Despite the many new protocols and procedures in place, PCS will strive to remain a caring and welcoming environment for all.
However, it is important for all members of our school community to be aware of the challenges we now face during this unprecedented public health crisis. The Department of Education has published a number of documents in relation to planning for reopening schools and are available on the following website: www.gov.ie/backtoschool
The PCS Board of Management who have responsibility for reopening our school have implemented a number of measures to allow for a safe return for students & staff. Please bring you attention to the Portumna Community School 'Safe Return to School 2020/21 Guidance for Parents' document and 'Student Induction Presentation' available from the parents/return to school section on this website Return to School September 2020.
Regards,
Shane McClearn
Principal.
