Merlin the Seal, now you are Free!

We (Steve, Karen, Abby and Aoife Ward) rescued Merlin from Garrylucas beach 2 weeks ago.  He had a bad abscess on his poor face when we found him. We contacted the Dingle Seal Sanctuary, sent them a photo of him from the beach and they said he needed immediate attention as he wouldn't survive a night on the beach. It took 3 of us to wrestle him into a fish box with a large rug (from our friend Dermot who lives up the road and eventually off we went to meet the rescue team who met us half way to Dingle. 2 weeks later Merlin made a full recovery and was released by Abby and Aoife on the beach this Tuesday.

Fáilte go Nuacht Eile / Welcome to Other News


Fáilte go Nuacht Eile / Welcome to Other News!

The school has requested that we create a new Nuacht site
 to clearly distinguish between official and non official school news.  Nuacht will now only have official school information that has been approved by the principal or vice principal but a separate new site "NuachtEile" (Other News) which will be wholly managed by the PA has been setup for sharing other miscellaneous parent and student information relating to non-official school events such as fundraisers, summer camps, sports, music, local activities, etc. 

This new site is accessible at NuachtEile.gaelscoilchionntsaile.ie.  You can optionally subscribe to posts via email by filling out the form under "Nuacht Eile via Email", by clicking "like" on the school Facebook page or by "following" the school on Twitter.

All parents are welcome to submit requests for new posts pertaining to non-official school news to NuachtEile by following guidelines under the "New Posting Request"  link.

The original "Nuacht.gaelscoilchionntsaile.ie" site will remain the official source of approved school news and if you have an email subscription setup you will continue to receive these updates automatically each day.  

Thank you

PA

PS: The website team is always looking for new volunteers to help maintain and develop the site. If you are interested in helping out please contact: pa@gaelscoilchionntsaile.ie
