Home-School Liason
There are very good links established between Scoil San Nioclas and parents. Parents are encouraged to meet teachers at the parent/teacher meetings, which take place in the second term. Parents are also encouraged to meet teachers if they so wish to discuss any concern they might have about their child’s education. An appointment is made with the secretary and the teacher will meet the parent.
Parents are encouraged by the Principal and Staff to be involved in their child’s education. They do this in many ways in Scoil San Nioclás. Parents are encouraged to get involved in shared-reading with their children and also to supervise and check homework assignments. Parents are very active in this area and also in the area of sports where many mums and dads support their children at matches and competitions. Parents also provide help during preparation for sacramental celebrations-committees are set up annually by the parents of the children in 2nd & 6th class.
The Principal meets parents on an on-going basis also and promotes the school and its pupils when and where possible.
Parents also provide valuable help in the area of fund-raising.
