Met Éireann has issued a status red weather warning for the entire country
11am, Thursday 23 January 2025
Status Red Alert: Schools closed on Friday 24 January.
Due to the extreme nature of Storm Éowyn and the threat of multi-hazard weather events on Friday 24 January, Met Éireann has confirmed a red weather warning. Based on this, the National Emergency Coordination Group has advised that all primary and post-primary schools in red warning areas will close for the duration of the red warning.
While the red weather warnings are expected to end between 10am and 3pm on Friday in different counties, schools will remain closed on Friday. Travel is not possible during the red warning period. After the red warning expires, safety checks may be needed to assess whether any damage has occurred and to ensure the safety of school communities, and parents and the school community would need time to prepare to return to school. Because of these factors, concerns about safe transport and the unpredictable nature of the red warnings, the department recognises that it is not possible or practical for schools in red warning areas to open on Friday.
Safety Checks Following the Weather Event
In carrying out any safety checks of buildings and facilities, school authorities should take into account the current and expected weather conditions, any damage that might have been caused to school buildings overnight or at any time during the storm, and the safety of the school community.
In this context, schools should stay updated on the latest weather warnings, which are available on national and local news bulletins. It’s especially important to watch for any changes to the warning status in their area.
The department will continue to monitor the situation as it progresses and will follow any advice from the National Emergency Coordination Group.
The Department of Education is grateful to school leaders, staff, students and the wider school community for their understanding and cooperation during this red weather warning and closure of schools.
We would like to express our gratitude to you for, as always, acting quickly in the interest of safety and communicating with your school communities at such short notice.

If your son/daughter is available to attend the requiem mass on Saturday we ask that they wear full school uniform and join us in a guard of honour outside the church after mass as a sign of respect and appreciation for the dedication and commitment Sr. Canisius showed to students of Pres Milltown over the years.
In order to determine approximate numbers and adequately prepare for Saturday please email office@presmilltown.ie no later than 12pm TODAY if your son/daughter is available to attend.

Conditions on-site and weather forecasts will be monitored over the coming 48 hours, and our aim is to be able to reopen the school on Friday. Updates will be posted via the school app.
Please know that decisions to close the school are not made lightly and are taken in relation to ensuring the health and safety of our students and staff.
Teachers will post work/guidance/support through TEAMS/Office 365 for students who are in a position to engage but we are fully aware that many homes are still without electricity and internet access so please do not worry if you are unable to access TEAMS. In such cases students are encouraged to use whatever copies/textbooks they may have at home to complete some individual study/revision during the next two days if possible.
We know that our 3rd & 6th Year students may be particularly anxious about this unforeseen closure. Rest assured that on re-opening our dedicated and committed teaching staff will work tirelessly to ensure that students are well prepared for both their Pre-Exams and their State Exams in June.
Students are familiar with logging into their Office 365 profile in school. Their usernames and passwords are the same as those they use to access school devices in class. If your son/daughter requires technical support accessing TEAMS/Office 365 please email office365support@presmilltown.ie
Please note that communication through the Office 365/TEAMS platforms is for students and teachers. Parental communication should be sent to office@presmilltown.ie in the normal way and the relevant person will get back to you as soon as is feasibly possible.
Thank you for your patience, support and cooperation.
