Green and Red Day
at Virgin Mary GNS Friday, September 25th Our local football club, Ballymun Kickhams, are in the Dublin Final this Sunday (September 27th). To show our support, we are asking everyone in Virgin Mary GNS to wear the club colours of green and red to school this Friday (September 25th).
It's a great opportunity to celebrate a happy occasion in our community and we hope everyone will join in!! 
It is so important to be vigilant for the signs and symptoms of COVID-19.
DO NOT send your daughter to school if she shows ANY of the following symptoms: -any kind of cough -shortness of breath or any kind of breathing difficulties -high temperature -change in taste of smell. We can all work together to continue to keep our school community safe and to keep our school open.

Dear Parents/Guardians,
We are delighted to announce that First Holy Communion will take place on Tuesday, September 29th in Virgin Mary Church at 11.30am.

All adults MUST wear a face covering on the day.
The ceremony will also be streamed live on www.stpappinsparish.com.
We look forward to celebrating this special day with you.
Best wishes,
