The Parents Room

The Parents’ Room in school is located on the ground floor next to the Preschool. The Parents Room is used for a number of activities on a weekly basis – English Language Classes, Parent & Toddler Group, Chat Room (conversation group), and Cookery Sessions, Garden Group.

Parents are welcome to drop in for information and support and to meet the HSCL Co-ordinator.

Come into the Parents Room to see photo displays of these groups in action and pick up lots of other information

The HSCL supports and encourages parents to develop their own skills and education e.g. spoken English, cooking, exercise, gardening.

We also have a number of FREE activities for Parents that run during the school year.

Our courses and activities are open to all parents and we would welcome new members so if you are interested in finding out more about any of the above contact Mary Rose Maher 087 7518418.
