Scoil Réalt na Mara Parents' Council

Scoil Réalt na Mara Parents' Council To aid the organisation of school fundraising activities – information sharing, recruitment and follow up information. Thank you for your support!

The Parents' Council provides a forum for parents on school matters
- our purpose is to assist the school Board of Management, principal and teachers where possible. The Scoil Réalt na Mara Parents’ Council page has been created with the following intentions:

To assist notification of Parents’ Council Meetings and share meeting notes. To act as an online noticeboard for school news for

parents. To assist communication with parents and offer them an opportunity to ask questions and make suggestions

The Scoil Réalt na Mara parents’ council is a voluntary group of parents working to assist the school Board of Management, principal and teachers in any way necessary to ensure OUR children have the best primary school education possible. The Parents’ Council meetings and events are YOUR opportunity to make a difference in how the school is run and contribute personally to its success – It is only as effective as the people involved make it! One of our main functions is to dream up and implement fundraising events for the school, we are also a forum to discuss your thoughts and ideas with the school management at our monthly Monday evening meetings. Fundraising has unfortunately never been more important due to governmental cutbacks and Ireland’s general economical state. The Parents’ Council endeavors to raise funds to assist the school with their basic (and continually rising) oil, electricity and other day-to-day amenity and school expenses. Anything we manage to raise over and beyond these requirements will go directly back to the children as new school equipment, subsidized school trips etc.. So the more active WE are has a direct effect on the quality of YOUR childrens' primary education. The Parents’ Council also wishes to unite all the parents of Scoil Réalt na Mara, assist in communication between the school and the parents and very importantly… we NEED YOU to help put the ‘FUN’ back into FUNdraising! Please ‘Like’ our page and pass it on to any other parents you might know are on FB and we hope to see more of you at the monthly meetings and taking part in YOUR council.
