Mr Leonard presented our Senior Students with certificates earlier today in recognition of their Perfect Attendance since the beginning of the school year. Both 5th and 6th years were treated afterwards by their Year Heads, Ms O'Malley and Ms Fennell, to a cuppa and some treats. Mr Leonard, Ms Harney and Ms Reigh joined in the celebrations as students gathered to chat and take some time to enjoy and reflect on their achievements.
Our School Leadership Class ran a fundraising campaign in conjunction with ‘Trick or Treat for Temple Street’ They compiled goody bags which student could order to be delivered to someone in school that they felt deserved a treat! Deliveries took place this morning with many happy recipients!!
Un grand merci to our TY French students who created beautiful leaflets in the French language about Cross and Passion College and Kilcullen. These brochures will be given to French students of Saint Contest, a town in Normandy which is twinned with Kilcullen. Ms Quinto will be travelling to Normandy this weekend to meet with teachers from the region to encourage correspondence and build links with our school. The leaflets were produced by Ms. Rowan and Ms Quinto’s students.
Congratulations to Shantayan Banerjee who was selected for the RCSI Mini Med Programme which will take place in February 2024. The standard of applications was incredibly high which made the decision very difficult. Our sincere thanks to Senior Occupational Therapist Aisling O’Toole (also of National Winning Brown Bread fame!) for giving her time to conduct the interviews.
Great fun was had today in our Autism classroom as students had their Halloween party.
There were lots of treats, games and laughter.
The TY Prefects also really enjoyed joining in.
Well done to all involved in organising this lovely event for the students.
Great to meet this week with our fantastic TY Prefects and plan for the months ahead.
They are working hard on different projects and areas throughout the school and are contributing so positively to our school community.
We are so very proud of each one of them.
Keep up the great work!

Ms. O'Sullivan was very impressed with the students of 1C who as part of their english course were working on Podcasts. Their creativity even won some of them prizes in the form of vouchers for our local bookstore "Woodbine Books".
Winners of the prizes were Sven Vdovic (pictured below spending his winnings!), Conan Roc O'Byrne, Freya Melia and Sophie Whelan.
Well done to all of these innovative students, we look forward to what you will create next!
