Welcome Back to Saint Joseph’s National School 2026/2027

Dear Pupils, Parents, Guardians and Staff,

Welcome back to a new school year at Saint Joseph’s .

Guímid gach rath agus sonas oraibh don bhliain scoile atá romhainn. Go mbeidh bliain iontach lán le foghlaim, cairdeas agus dea-aimsir againn go léir!

We wish you every success and happiness for the school year ahead. May we all have a wonderful year filled with learning, friendship and good times.

We hope that everyone enjoyed a restful and enjoyable summer break and that you are returning feeling refreshed, positive and ready for the year ahead.

A new school year brings with it new opportunities to learn, make friends and create lasting memories. We are delighted to welcome all our pupils back and extend a particularly warm welcome to those joining our school community for the first time.

We would also like to welcome back our dedicated staff and thank them for their continued commitment, care and hard work. We look forward to working together to provide a happy, safe and supportive environment where every child can thrive.

To our parents and guardians, thank you for your continued support and partnership. The relationship between home and school is an important part of our children’s education, and we look forward to working together throughout the year.

As we begin the new school year, we wish every pupil, family member and member of staff a happy, successful and fulfilling year ahead. We hope the coming year will be filled with learning, friendship, achievement and many positive experiences.

Let us look forward to the year ahead with enthusiasm, kindness and a strong sense of community.

Welcome back, everyone, and best wishes for a wonderful school year!

Yours sincerely,

Dominic Gallagher
