  • Letter from School Principal
    Kilbroney Integrated Primary School 15 Cloughmore Road, Rostrevor, Co Down BT34 3EL Tel: 028417 38491 25/06/2020 Dear Parent/Guardian I am writing to thank you for your support and understanding during the recent period of school closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Over these past few months we as a staff and you as parents have been learning to adjust to a new type of education. It has been especially difficult and disruptive for our pupils who have missed the school routine and the social aspect of school. Through it all I am certain that it has been our shared priority to minimise any negative impact of school closure on our children's learning and emotional wellbeing. I would like to pay tribute to all staff and especially the teachers, who have worked so hard over these past weeks to keep teaching and learning continuing at home through an online approach. I would also commend you as parents for your effort and commitment to home schooling which has been a source of encouragement to us. I am confident it will have instilled good self-discipline and study skills in our children which will benefit them in the future. Hopefully they will all look back on this period in a generally positive way. Our preparation and planning for the new term is beginning to fall into place and I would like to assure you that the staff and Governors will have the safety of everyone in our school community as our guiding principle. We intend to keep our class structures as before which will allow us to keep our class sizes manageable.
