Welcome
Welcome to the Bray
School Project Website. It is the aim of the site to
allow pupils and parents have a forum where all school related
interests can be accessed at the touch of a
button. We look forward to great 2010/2011 school year.

* ENROLMENT POLICY CHANGE **
On 23rd April 2011 the BSPA voted unanimously
to change the current enrolment policy.
* Any Child already enrolled on the list
will continue on the list under the old policy ( i.e. siblings
of current pupils will be given preference over non-siblings
and they will have the option of applying for a supernumerary
place )
* From Sunday 1st May 2011 any child
enrolled will be enrolled under the new policy - i.e.
preference will not be given to siblings and there will
not be the option of applying for a supernumerary place.
All applications received on or after the
1st of May must be on the NEW application form or will not
be accepted. If you have any questions, please contact the
school.

Click on MP3 link above to hear the
interview from East Coast FM about the C.O.W.
C.O.W (cycle on Wednesdays) is a national initiative that encourages pupils, parents and teachers to cycle to school. It's main aim is to promote a cycling culture within the school and wider community.
Children of primary school age should always use cycle paths or cycle on footpaths where there is no cycle path.
The Green School Committee will speak to all classes about cycle safety. Parents and guardians are asked to ensure that their child is safe cycling to school. Parents may wish to cycle with their child or walk along with them.
A bicycle maintenance session will be held in the school prior to 2nd February (date to be confirmed with Everest Cycles, please check homework notebooks).
Thank you to all families who have supported the W.O.W initiative, and if cycling isn't practical, please continue to walk.
And remember......
Be safe, be seen

Green
School Newsletter
At Bray School Project we have been working very hard to achieve
"Green School" status. In 2009 we received our third green flag under the theme water conservation. This follows our two previous flags awarded for energy conservation
and waste management.
This year we are hoping to receive our fourth green flag. The topic we have been working on for since September 2009 is Travel. With the help of pupils, parents, guardians and teachers, we have been trying our best to travel to and from school in more environmentally friendly way!
W.O.W days have proved a great success, with everyone walking, parking and striding, cycling, taking the bus and car-pooling.
Our "Golden Boot" is awarded each week to the class that has the most participants, and results are recorded on the Green School notice board.
This term, to celebrate the beginning of Spring and the welcome return of brighter mornings, the Green School Committee will be launching C.O.W days. Our launch will be Wednesday February 2nd 2011.
