Our thanks to Mr. Slevin and Mr. Costelloe for organising the graduation and to the Parents Association for organising the refreshments.
The staff and I would like to wish them the best of luck on their onward journey. With sixth class departing we are also losing some parents. A special thank you to them for their support and involvement in school life over the duration of their child’s education here in Emo.

Retirement
SNA, Annamarie Deegan has retired. I’d like to sincerely thank her for her work in Emo National school over the last 19 years. In particular, I would like to thank her for the care and attention she gave to the pupils in the school and we wish Annamarie and her family every good wish in her retirement.
Finally, on behalf of everybody in Emo NS, may I take this opportunity to say well done to all our pupils. They should be very proud of the work that they have done this year. It was great to get back on track and to get to experience all aspects of school life again. We look forward to meeting you on the 31st August. In the meantime, I hope you all enjoy a lovely summer break
