All children from 3rd to 6th class only are now required to wear masks/face coverings in a school setting. At last nights Board of Management meeting, it was agreed that starting from today Wednesday 1st of December all students in 3rd to 6th can begin to wear their own masks. Students can just begin to wear them today if they have them and then from Monday 6th of December it will be a requirement. It is the parents own responsibility to provide a mask for their own child and not the schools. If a child forgets their mask the school can provide a mask for them on occasion but not continuously. Please find attached 3 attachments. In your own time please have a read through them.
