Attendance at School:

Regular attendance at school is a positive indicator of a pupil’s commitment to their studies. Parents are asked to support their children in arriving at school, on time, every day and to avoid taking a student from school during the school day, unless it is absolutely necessary.

We reward good attendance through various incentives including pizza parties and Shop LK Vouchers.


Uniform

The complete school uniform must be worn at all times.

  • Black jumper with official school crest
  • Grey shirt
  • Dark grey trousers/skirt
  • Plain black shoes
It is as follows:

The official black school jacket with the crest is the only jacket allowed inside the school building. This jacket can be purchased online from https://oreillysofficial.com/product-category/errigal-college/.


Student Journal

We at Errigal College consider the Student Journal as a very important resource for all our students. Students are required to have their student journal with them at all times throughout the school day, and it must be visibly on your desk throughout every class.

The Student Journal provides students with information on the School Code of Behaviour, Assessment, Timetables, study techniques, health & wellbeing, and Anti-bullying.

Lockers

At the beginning of the Academic year, each student is provided with a combination lock and code. It is extremely important that students keep their code safe and do not let others know what their combination is.

Quick Guide on how to use your Combination Lock:

  • Step 1 – 3 full turns clockwise (to your right)
  • Step 2 – After 3 full turns, continue clockwise to the 1st number of your code
  • Step 3 – Going anti-clockwise (to your left) go to your second number, but you must pass your 1st number first
  • Step 4 – Clockwise, go directly, to the last number of your code

(If you pass your number by mistake you must begin all over again with 3 full turns clockwise)

It is the student’s own responsibility to look after their locker and the contents of the locker. No items should be lying on the floor around your locker, or they will be removed.
