E-scéal 313 - 5 things you need to know before your holidays

Buíochas
This past year has been a very challenging year for school leaders.  We would like to take this opportunity to thank the many Principals and Deputies who have been generous with their time and expertise for the benefit of fellow school leaders, by serving on our National and Executive Committees, local support groups and answering the many queries posted on the Networking mailing list.  We also thank the staff at the IPPN Support Office in Cork, who have worked on many projects and events, and delivered services for our members throughout the year.  Finally, we wish to thank you, as a member of IPPN, for your continued participation in our network and the collegial support this provides.  Take a well-deserved break during the summer holidays to fully relax, renew and rejuvenate.  If you don’t look after yourself, it is unlikely that anyone else will.
