Books
School book scheme details: The following list of items will be supplied in school in August 2025 depending on the needs of the student…eg if not doing Irish, they do not need an Irish dictionary. If a student loses a school book, then they have to replace it themselves. If a student loses a calculator, they must replace it. All books are given on loan and will be returned at the end of third year in good condition. It is important to note that, in line with our Book Scheme Policy, the cost of lost / excessively damaged books is borne by the student / parents.
