School Musical:  

We are delighted to announce that the school, alongside St Peter’s College, will be hosting the musical Footloose in the National Opera House this December. Both schools held their first production meeting this week and we can’t wait to start auditions in the coming days. The bi-annual musical is always a particular highlight in our calendar, and we look forward to producing a high-quality show once again.

Green Schools

Want to get involve and make a difference this year? Join the Green Schools Committee and be part of a group that’s all about sustainability, creativity, and taking action.

From eco-projects to school-wide campaigns, this is your chance to lead, inspire, and make your voice heard. Plus, it’s a great way to build your confidence, get involved and boost your CV.

Green Schools is open to all year groups. Sign up sheets are on Ms. Davey’s door and the Green Schools noticeboard beside Glenda’s this week.

Clubs and Societies Afternoon

As we settle into the new school year, it is wonderful to see our extra-curricular activities get up and running again. Clubs and societies provide opportunities for students to engage in activities outside of the classroom fostering a sense of community and belonging within the school. Joining a club or society is also a great way to meet new friends with likeminded interests.

This year we hope to run a Clubs and Societies afternoon for students on Thursday the 25th Sept. If you are interested in starting a new club or society please see Mr O’ Dowd.

We thank all teachers involved for their dedication and time in this regard. 

Lost and Found

Misplaced school uniform jumpers and coats can be collected from the GP Area today. Any items not reclaimed will be available to any students form next Monday.
