Unfortunately we are back to remote learning until the end of January. This is not an ideal situation for anyone - staff, parents or children. We would all much rather be back at school but until we are allowed to do that, we will all try to make the best of the situation we find ourselves in.

All parents should have received an email from their child's class teacher at this stage. If you have not received any communication from your child's teacher, please email office@holycrossns.ie and we will rectify the situation.

If you experience any issues with access to Google Classroom, or have any concerns regarding remote learning and your own family's context, please contact your child's class teacher in the first instance.

We are all trying to do our best in these most challenging of circumstances and we are aware that we will make mistakes. We rely on communication from our parents to ensure that we can provide the best possible experience for families during this period. Our aim is to strike a balance of achievable, meaningful work for the children, while being mindful of each family's very different circumstances.

Please try to ensure that your child engages as much as possible with their class, but at the same time, please do not put undue pressure on yourselves and your families.

Hopefully this will not last for much longer, and as always, I thank you for your continued support and co-operation.
