Children celebrating the start of the New School Year. Lucy, one of our new Junior Infants, holds a seed in a pot – a seed that will grow – representing the children as they too grow and blossom over the coming school year. Cian holds an empty white page, representing the young mind that each day develops and grows both intellectually and spiritually. The Celtic cross crest on the school uniform jumper reminds us of the long tradition of Christianity in our area. The three candles represent the children in each classroom. May the light of the candles and the warmth of the flame fill our hearts with the light and the warmth of God’s love during the coming school year.

The excitement was up to the sky and back today for our annual Patrick Curtin Tournament 🏆 Last week we had the group stages and unfortunately the orange and jersey teams were knocked out. Today was a fine display of football, with two semi final games firstly, the red team versus the yellow team and then the blue team versus non-bibs team.
All teams fought hard but it was meant to be for the yellow 🟡 and blue 🔵 team to meet in the final. It was a super entertaining final with lots of goals. In the finish the blue team pulled away and took the win. Their captain Mark was proud to lift the trophy. Thank you so much to the club for the field, Eileen, Evelyn and family for coming and making the presentation, to Conor for reffing and to the parents for supporting us on the day. The players were outstanding, very disciplined, encouraging and conscious of younger players. Cadán took the "Sportsmanship Award" for his brilliant attitude. He quietly went about his business, encouraging his team and played brilliant football also.
Ah thank you so much to Lee Strand and to all our great community for dropping in milk tokens for this competition 👏🏼 This money will be put to great use!
