ARDSCOIL LA SALLE WILL BE CLOSED TO STUDENTS AND VISITORS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

KEEP SAFE - KEEP OTHERS SAFE - KEEP YOUR DISTANCE

Limited Places available for First Year in 2020

Local schools (in the Howth Deanery) have now applied through the Deanery form. However, each year there are a limited number of places for direct application to the school. Anyone may apply directly. The number of places is very limited, as Ardscoil La Salle makes a feature of small classes and an overall number which allows every student to know every other student. These 'extra' places are expected to be taken up very quickly. If you are interested please phone 01 848 0055 or email secretary@ardscoillasalle.ie .

A Positive Reflection on Wellbeing Week - Gary Cunningham

We hope that all of our students, staff and guardians alike are keeping well during this time. Remember that your Wellbeing and positive mental health are of such importance during times like this. In this spirit, we want to extend a massive thank you to Gary Cunningham for his amazing, inspirational words during our Wellbeing Week 2020.

Take a look at this video to give yourself a positive boost!

A Message to Parents

During the closure the management and staff of Ardscoil La Salle will use its' GSuite for Education resource.

Students and teachers will remain in contact through Email, the Google Classroom facility and Google Meet.

Since not all staff and students have used the facilities before, we would ask students and parents to bear with us while we get up to speed - already we have ensured that all of the students can log in, and staff have been busy preparing for teaching online. All of us are learning together at this difficult time.

We are very grateful for all of the understanding and cooperation you have shown, during this difficult transition. Be Safe.

Ardscoil La Salle ‘Subject Fair’

Our 3rd year and TY students had an informative afternoon here at Ardscoil La Salle! 5th year representatives from each of the choice subjects hosted a 'Subject Fair', offering our 3rd years and TYs a great insight into each subject at Senior Cycle. The 5th years discussed the subjects from a students perspective, ensuring that our students will make a well- rounded decision on what subjects are right for them moving forward! We wish them luck in their future choices!

Focus on Wellbeing - Friday Fun Day Workshops

Wellbeing Week is about to wrap up here at Ardscoil La Salle! It has been an amazing week and we all had a blast! For the last day we decided to host a variety of feel good workshops for our students. They also took part in a non- uniform 'Denim Day' to raise money for Dementia Awareness.

Thank you to all of the staff who organised workshops and to the external experts who came in to help our students experience something new!
