Attendance 2017/2018.

Well done to the 34 pupils in our school who achieved full attendance for the 2017/2018 school year. They are pictured on the final day of the school year, when Mrs. Andrews presented them with their Attendance Certificates and prizes. 

A special award was presented to Anna Ryan 6th Class, who achieved full attendance for her entire 8 years in the school. 

The overall attendance rate for the 2017/2018 school year was 93.6%. April and September had the highest attendance rates at 96.4% and 96.3% respectively, while January at 89.5% had the lowest attendance rate. 

The best attending classes were Mrs. O'Dwyer's 3rd & 4th class and Mrs. Kealy's 5th class. Both classes had an overall attendance rate of 95.3%. 

25% of pupils in our school had an attendance rate of 98% or above this year. 34 pupils had full attendance, 19 pupils missed one day, 15 pupils missed two days and 17 pupils missed three days this year.
