Department of Education and Skills RESPONSE PLAN

Reminder to anyone attending school who has travelled abroad Government policy, which is based on official public health advice, continues to advise against non-essential travel overseas for everyone. It is a requirement for anyone coming into Ireland, from locations other than those with a rating of ‘normal precautions’ (“green”), to restrict their movements for 14 days, and this includes school staff, parents and children or other students coming from abroad to attend school in Ireland. Restricting your movements means staying indoors in one location and avoiding contact with other people and social situations as much as possible.

Since schools have reopened we have had several primary school children arriving unaccompanied to the library after school. Unfortunately, due to the current COVID19 guidelines issued by the Local Government Management Agency, libraries cannot allow children age 12 and under to attend the library on their own. They must be accompanied by an adult, or older teen. As the number of people that we can allow into the library building at one time is restricted we are asking people to book a 30 minute session to come into Leixlip Library. To book a 30 minute session for Leixlip Library go to https://www.supersaas.co.uk/schedule/KCC_Booking_System/Leixlip_Library . We hope to have lots of children using the library over the coming months, and hope that our normal walk-in service will return soon. We will make contact with all schools in the area when these restrictions are lifted, or if any of the information above changes. Many thanks and kind regards, Silje Silje Skuterud | Librarian | Leixlip Community Library, Captain's Hill, Leixlip, Co. Kildare, W23 WR96 | T: 01 6060050 | E: sskuterud@kildarecoco.ie

Dear Parents & Guardians This school year our classes will be using Seesaw (http://seesaw.me), a secure online journal where students can document and reflect on what they are learning in class. Your child will be able to add the things we work on (including photos, videos, worksheets, drawings and voice recordings) to their Seesaw journal and we can share them privately with you and other family members to view and comment on throughout the school year. In order for your child to use Seesaw, the app needs your child’s name in order to be able to associate work like their photos, videos or voice recordings with their account. Seesaw only uses this information to provide the service and doesn’t advertise in Seesaw, create profiles of students, or share or sell your child’s personal information or journal content. You can read more about their strong privacy promises here: https://web.seesaw.me/privacy. Under an EU law called the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in order for your child to use Seesaw, the school must get your consent. For more information on GDPR, please visit https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rights-citizens. I hope that your child will enjoy using Seesaw to document and share their learning this year. Le gach dea ghuí Principal
