Prior to the school’s closure, our TYs fundraised a fantastic €857 for the Irish Wheelchair Association and were looking forward to competing in the All Ireland Wheelchair Basketball Finals this term. We hope that this money will be a great help to the association during these challenging times.
Congratulations to second year student Aoibhinn Keegan — one of two runners up nationwide in the GAA museum’s junior cycle creative writing competition. Aoibhinn’s entry ‘A GAA Legend’ has won her a host of prizes, and an invitation to the winner’s lunch with the judging panel in Croke Park. Well done to Aoibhinn and her mentor Mr Slevin! A great achievement.

Today we started our 20 days of walking challenge as organised by the Amber Flag Team. This year we are focusing on the positive benefits that physical activity and fresh air have on our mental health and well-being in general. The first 50 students to complete the challenge will be rewarded with a trip to Sligo in May to climb Knocknarea. 🏽♀️
