Dear Parents/Guardians, A reminder to all that school books should be purchased as usual according to the booklist. All textbooks have a reference code for access to an ebook. Therefore, if your daughter would like to use a device such as a laptop in school next year, you may download the ebook to the device. Students will be advised how to download ebooks upon their return to school. If you would like to purchase a device from Wriggle please visit https://www.wriggle.ie/OnlineStoreLogin. There are various payment plans available on the website. A device pack was sent in a previous email which contains the specific code you will need to access the pack for your daughter's year group. If your daughter already has a device, she is welcome to use this in school next year. The school has decided to offer the option of using a device in school due to the unprecedented circumstances as a consequence of Covid-19. Unfortunately next year there will be no access to the lockers due to physical distancing restrictions and students will not be bringing their text books into school. If physical distancing restrictions ease during the course of the year, then of course, students will be allowed to then access lockers. However, it is not essential for students to have their own device next year. Please contact sthornton@stlouishighschool.ie if you have any queries regarding using a device in school next year. Sinéad Thornton Deputy Principal

Please be advised that a pack containing a general letter, booklists and IT options for next year will be posted out to you on Monday next. As you can gather from what’s being shared on the media at the moment, the re-opening of schools will be very challenging. We have been working very hard on many aspects of this over the past few weeks and will be extremely busy in August pulling it all together. Advice and guidance may change over the course of the next two months and we will endeavour to embrace what is needed for the health and safety of all. Please take time to consider all that is in the pack, especially in relation to the technology supports. Stay safe and stay well and keep adhering to the HSE guidelines in the spirit of us all supporting one other. ‘Ut Sint Unum’. Kindest regards, Ms McDonough
