The Department of Education has provided a grant to schools to buy school books, workbooks and copies for the next school year. Parents do not need to buy any books or copies, books will be provided on loan to pupils for the coming year.
It is important that your child takes good care of books and school resources during the year as they belong to the school and will need to be re-used in future years.
At the end of the school year your child will return the school books in good condition. They must also be returned if your child leaves the school.
A Guide for Parents about the grant can be accessed at this link.
We do ask that parents supply a small number of stationery items for your child and replenish these as needed throughout the year. Stationery items are not included in the schoolbook grant.
These are listed for each class level below.
Thank you
