Re: Update regarding Amalgamation of St Peter’s
N.S. and Scoil Eimhín Naofa.
Dear Parents
/ Guardians,
In recent
months a Steering Committee for the new school has been established and this
Committee has had a number of contacts with officials of the Department of
Education and Skills.
We have now
been informed that:
·
The Department of Education and Skills has
commenced the Tender Process for the appointment of a Design Team for the new
school.
·
The new amalgamated school building will be
located on the site of Scoil Eimhín Naofa.
·
Scoil Eimhín Naofa and St. Peter’s N.S.
will amalgamate when the building is fully completed and ready for use.
·
The Department of Education and Skills has
given no timeframe as to when this process will be fully completed.
We will
provide you with further updates as matters progress.
