Mass Please join us for Mass in school at 10am on Thursday 2 February. FOSTA No one came forward to tell me that they would like to stand for
nd
any of the committee posts and Mrs. Driscoll has unfortunately resigned as Chair. As a consequence the proposed meeting on Tuesday at 2.15 is CANCELLED and I would urge you to contact the only remaining committee member, Mrs. Natalie King, to plan a way forward if you want FOSTA to continue. It is not my position to tell you what to do as FOSTA is independent of the school, although if you would like my assistance please ask.
