Students should assemble at the school no later than 6.45pm & will then make their way over to the church as a group for the entry procession.
The church will be open from 6.45pm for family members to take their seats.
Students are aware of the dress code and behaviour required in the lead up to and on the night of Graduation.
Parents and family members are invited to the school after the mass for refreshments.
Please note that students from other year groups should not attend Graduation unless they have a sibling in 6th Year.
Thank you in advance for your support and cooperation. We look forward to meeting you on Tuesday evening.

Students are asked to bring in a donation of €2 for the Peter McVerry Trust and in return they do not have to wear their school uniform tomorrow.
As it is also Wellbeing Week here in the school, we would like to see lots of bright colours to brighten the day. Each year group has been allocated a specific colour to wear tomorrow.
· 1st Years – Wear Red
· 2nd Years – Wear Yellow
· 3rd Year – Wear Green
· TYs – Wear Purple
· 5th Years – Wear Blue
· 6th Years – Wear Orange
As with all our no-uniform days students are reminded to dress appropriately for school.
Thank you for your support.

The Home-Based Summer Provision Programme is for students who present with the most significant needs in mainstream classes in primary and post-primary schools who are accessing the highest level of the Continuum of Support (School Support Plus) 1. This will include a small number of students with enduring needs which significantly affect their capacity to learn, to function independently and to participate in education.
These students require highly individualised and differentiated learning programmes that are significantly different to their peers. These students may present with the following:
- Significant needs with physical and/or sensory functioning (including students who are Deaf or have severe to profound hearing loss and students who are blind or have severe to profound visual impairment)
- Significant needs in cognitive functioning and independence/daily living skills (including students who have moderate to severe OR significant/profound learning disability)
- Significant needs in social communication, social interaction combined with rigid repetitive patterns of behaviour
- Students with Down syndrome
- Students with severe OR significant emotional behavioural needs to the extent that these behaviours of concern are impacting on a student’s ability to learn, to function independently and to participate fully in school life.
- Autistic Students are eligible for this Programme.
If you wish to apply for Home Based support for your son/daughter, please contact the school office on 066 97 95455 or office@presmilltown.ie for an initial eligibility form.
The school will then confirm the student’s eligibility for the programme after which parents will receive an email confirming the number of hours the student is eligible for.
Once the Dept of Education has confirmed the number of hours, parents can employ the services of a teacher/SNA to conduct these hours which will be paid for by DES.
The closing date for applications is Friday 9th June, but parents are encouraged to apply sooner.

Please ensure that “Permission to Leave” notes are submitted on the school app for students who need to leave school early.
Parents/guardians must collect students from the school office if they need to leave early. Permission to leave early notes should be submitted on the school app in advance of the student leaving the premises.
Since the school office is not manned between 12.30pm and 1.30pm we ask that parents avoid these times for collection if at all possible please. Where it is not possible to avoid these times advance notice via the school app is crucial.
Absence notes and late slips should also be submitted via the school app and these will transfer to our VSware data system.
Text messages will be sent each morning alerting parents if their son/daughter has been marked absent from class.
Periodic attendance checks also take place in relation to the other class periods throughout the school day.
Please note that truanting/skipping class for all or part of a school day is a breach of the school’s Code of Behaviour and sanctions will apply.
You can monitor your son’s/daughter’s attendance via VSware.
Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.
