Paying tribute to the lives of former staff members of St Colman's Abbey PS or St Clare's Convent PS.

At the time of amalgamation it was agreed that funerals of staff of the former schools would not be attended by pupils from the newly amalgamated school. This was to avoid anyone being overlooked due to current staff being unaware of former connections with the schools.

That seemed like an appropriate arrangement at the time. However, having personally attended recent funerals of deceased former staff, I have become uneasy with this arrangement. Therefore, it will be modified as indicated below.

The family of a deceased member of staff of Abbey PS or St Clare’s PS, who retired from either school may request a school representation at their loved one’s requiem mass. If the mass is taking place during school hours and in a local church, we will try our very best to facilitate the request. Requests may be made via telephone 02830262175.

We cherish the contribution that former staff made to both schools, from which we grew.

Thank You

NUT ALLERGIES

Please do not send any types of foods containing any type of nuts into school for lunches as we have children with severe nut allergies. These items include biscuits and bars with a nutella type filling or croissants, pan au chocolate and brioche rolls. We ask parents to read the ingredients on these items before putting them in packed lunches.

We cannot allow products in school if the label states; "may contain traces of nuts."

If pupils bring products containing nuts to school, we will hold on to them and send them home uneaten at the end of the day.

We have been advised by the Allergy Nurse not to accept Horse Chestnuts / Conkers.

Please help keep children safe while in St Clare's Abbey.
