Our school app is called Aladdin. This app can be used to communicate with the school e.g. send notes to teacher/parents, information updates, permissions for activities and much more.

We use Aladdin to track attendance so it is important that you put a note on the app if your child is absent, late or leaving early. The names of children who miss 20 days or more in a school year are automatically sent to the department at the end of the year in our returns. Should your child have any absences it is important that the reason is logged in case it is necessary to follow up on absences at a later date. Being in school everyday is extremely important. Illness and a one-off unavoidable absence will be inevitable so it is important that your child is in for all other days so they don’t accumulate absences. It is difficult for a child to learn if they are missing school regularly so give them good habits from the beginning by being in school on time every day.

You can download the Aladdin app to any smart phone. If you are having difficulty setting up the app an appointment can be made with our Home School Liaison teacher Helena Creedon in September and she will help you. She can be contacted on 087 2384968.
