Dear Parent/Guardian
Thank you
Huge thanks to all of our Parent Helpers who have given their time so generously throughout this year, assisting with various activities in school and with educational excursions. Your support has been invaluable and many of these events could not go ahead without your help. Thanks too, to our Parent Council and Parent Staff Association who have once again excelled themselves. Their fundraising activities have contributed to school trips, resources, games and Sacramental gifts.

I’d like to thank you all for your support during my time here at St Cadoc’s. I have thoroughly enjoyed the past eighteen months and parents, staff and pupils have made me feel very welcome. I will miss you all.
Last day of term is Wednesday 25th June. We close at 1pm. School resumes on Wednesday 13th August at 8.55am. I have attached a map of the school which should help your child to know where to line up on their first day back. Have a wonderful summer. God Bless you all.
Yours sincerely

Well done to Primary 3 for creating a wonderful garden for St Cadoc’s. The children have worked very hard planting, digging and painting so we will be trying very hard to keep it looking great for the next school year!
