Social, Personal & Health Education Survey 2015 Results Part 1
Many thanks to all parents & guardians who participated in last term’s online survey on this school’s Social, Personal and Health Education (SPHE) work. Over 100 responses were received.
The responses will help shape the school’s approach to this curriculum area over the coming years, (as was the case in previous surveys/consultations: Code of Behaviour, Relationships & Sexuality Education policy, Educate Together ethos review, etc.)
SPHE includes lessons and activities for the children in areas such as:
self-confidence making decisions health & wellbeing
bullying feelings & emotions personal safety
relating to others conflict resolution new life
A number of results are outlined above. School staff and the Board of Management will further consider all results and comments later this term, before agreeing a set of priorities. An action plan/improvement plan will be presented early next term.

No internet access? – paper version is available from the school office.
Please do not name other children/families/staff when completing the survey.
Some parents suggested an ‘incentive’ to encourage as many families as possible to participate. Thus, if there’s a good response rate, the children will be given the opportunity to vote on an exciting additional activity for Sports Day!
Spelling Bee Success
Orla arranged the school’s participation in the Spelling Bee event again this year…
WEXFORD SPELLING BEE
‘Bunscoil Loreto in Gorey was the venue for the Eason Spelling Bee Wexford County Final and the team were in for a treat, the school hall was absolutely brilliant and was the perfect place to host any event, this coupled with the extremely friendly staff and pupils made it the perfect venue to host the competition. On the day we had 30 super spellers who all showed up, all eager to claim the crown of Wexford’s best speller. The fans in the audience were left speechless by some of the spelling on show and things got really tense when the final came down to the last two spellers. After an exciting knockout round it was Dara Tuinstra from Gorey Educate Together who came out on top to claim the county title. Dara will now go on to represent her school and county in the Leinster final in May.’
