DIGITAL PROGRAMME

Coláiste Chraobh Abhann will be running a free one to one digital programme in the school and is looking to recruit learners of all ages from the local community who may wish to participate. It offers a course of personalised ‘one-to-one’ lessons by a digital expert (Transition Year student volunteers). Learners bring their own device (laptop/tablet/smartphone) and lessons are free. Learners of all ages, stages, abilities and learning speeds (from beginner to intermediate) can attend. Learners start at their own level and advance at their own pace. Lessons begin on Friday, January 20, from 11: 15-12: 35 in the school. For more information please contact Steph-

We look forward to welcoming all fifth year students and their parents and guardians to the PTS meeting on Thursday, February 2, at 4.15 p.m. Students are starting to look at their options for third level, and set targets for sixth year. All fifth year students will have a meeting with their mentor teacher to discuss their third level aspirations as part of the evening. Classes for all students will finish at 3.30 p.m. to facilitate this meeting.
