The LC1 (5th Year) Parent Teacher Meeting was unable to go ahead as planned on Tuesday 12th January owing to the effects of the adverse weather conditions.
In rescheduling this Parent Teacher Meeting we are conscious of the need to minimize any further loss of tuition time for pupils.
Consequently we have decided to hold both the LC1 and Third Year Parent Teacher Meetings together on Friday 22nd January (9.15am to 1.15pm). There will be a break for Teachers from 10.45am to 11.15am.
To ensure that all parents have an opportunity to meet with teachers you are requested:
·         To spend no more than 5 minutes with each teacher. If additional time is required please make an appointment to meet the teacher individually on another occasion.
·         To have copies of the pupils recent reports and the pupils school journal with you.
I acknowledge that these changes of date will cause inconvenience for some Parents/Guardians, however it is the option least disruptive to tuition time over the next few weeks.
 
12-01-2010:
The school will reopen for all pupils tomorrow Wednesday 13th January. Evening study will resume tomorrow. 
The LC1 PTM which was to take place today will be rescheduled.

Tullow community school were narrowly defeated in the Leinster Development cup final on Thursday the 10/12/09. In what was an extremely entertaining game, Tullow were unlucky to loose by the smallest of margins 12-13. From the off it was clear to all that there was only ever going to be the kick of a ball in it and unfortunately that’s what it came down to.

The Tullow players can take heart in the fact that they played a great game and rounded of a great season. It would be wrong to single out players for individual attention because this was a great squad performance through out the year.
