Class Reps

To improve communication in our schools, each class has 2 parent class representatives who pass information via a WhatsApp group in relation to your child’s class to keep you up to date with what is happening within the school community.  A class WhatsApp group is essential for play dates, parties and social evenings and communication from the school, Board of Management and/or the Parents Association.
