Hello to all our feeder primary school students, Parents and Guardians,
We hope that you and your families are well and coping with this difficult situation of Covid-19. We will all do our best to get through these tough days.
Our own students and teachers are working hard and all teaching and learning is going ahead but in a much different way online. It is important that we do our bit for education, our families, our country and for our people.
This is a message for students, parents and guardians who have already applied for, or who wish to come to St Dominic's College in September 2021. You will presently be in fifth class. This notice does not apply to students joining us in this coming September 2020.
There is new legislation that does not permit schools to offer places before the 1st October 2020 for present fifth class students. This new procedure applies to all secondary schools. Normally we offer places each March but this will now occur each year going forward in the preceding October of the year of entry.
So to the students in our feeder primary schools - St Catherine's Senior School, Mary, Help of Christians G.N.S. and Christ the King G.N.S. - please do not worry. We will be in touch with you as soon as schools return after the Covid-19 virus to inform you of what has to be done. If you have a specific question our school email is info@stdominics.ie.
To students in other feeder schools we have already written to you this week to explain the situation.
We look forward very much to the day you will be a student with us here in St Dominic's College. For now we will all work towards being careful and reducing the spread of this virus. I wish you all well.
Ms Ann Cameron
Principal
