Hi, my name is Rebecca Lomax, and I am delighted to be the Home School Community Liaison (HSCL) Coordinator in St. Joseph’s Primary School. I also work in The Monastery Primary School.

The HSCL programme is in place across the country because we recognise that parents and guardians are the most important people in their children’s lives. It is the job of the HSCL to support relationships between the school, the home, and the community, to help assist you in the process of your child’s education.

Part of my job includes:

● Meeting with parents/ guardians to offer advice and support in relation to their child’s education. Maybe your child is not attending as often as they should, are having problems with friendship groups or find it difficult getting organised for school. I am here to offer a friendly ear and support if it’s needed.
● Organising courses throughout the year for you the parents/guardians, maybe to learn a new skill or for enjoyment. Courses may include cooking, crafts, and additional English classes.
● Sharing information between the school and home which may be helpful for you.
● Supporting the positive relationships between St. Joseph’s Primary School and the families of our students.

I look forward to working with you to help your children reach their full potential here in St. Joseph’s.
I am in St. Joseph’s after lunch on Wednesdays, and all day on Thursday and Friday.
I am at the school gates on those mornings also.

You can contact me on 083 086 6795 (WhatsApp is also available) or through the school.
