5th Year students enjoyed a trip to a local coffee shop today during their Irish class as a little reward for continuing their hard work here in school while some of their classmates have been enjoying their Skiing trip.

Well done 5th years - keep up the great efforts being made.

Thank you to the Irish teachers for organising this surprise treat.

UCD Entrance Scholar Award for CPC Congratulations to former student Eddie O’Loughlin who received a UCD Entrance Scholar Award today in the O’ Reilly Hall at UCD. This award is given to the Leaving Certificate entrant with the highest points score from each school in the Republic of Ireland, provided the score is at least 500 points. These awards are part of a range of UCD initiatives put in place to recognise exceptional students when they join, as well as those who develop their talents while studying at UCD.
UCD’s top tier of awards is through the UCD Ad Astra Academy which supports an exceptional group of high achieving and highly talented students including Academic, Elite Athlete and Performing Arts scholars. The second tier is UCD’s Entrance scholars which include Academic High Achievers, Choral Scholars, Cothrom na Feinne Scholars, Gaeltacht Scholars and Symphony Orchestra Scholars.
Eddie was joined by his very proud parents Teresa and Ed and his equally proud former Year Head Mairead O’Malley who accepted a plaque to commemorate Eddie’s achievements on behalf of Cross and Passion College.

Our final day on the slopes has come to an end. It was amazing to see everyone finish so strongly and everyone can be proud of the progress they made in just a few days. Everyone received a medal from our guide  and then we celebrated some fun CPC awards after dinner. We finished the evening with some Tubing and look forward to visiting Verona tomorrow en route home to round off a fabulous trip.

We had a lovely Chat and Connect session this morning with our 5th year students during their RE class. 

Students enjoyed a hot drink and some nice sweet treats. 

It was lovely to give the students time to chat and enjoy each others company. 

Looking forward to more of these sessions in the year ahead. 

Thank you to the 5th year RE teachers for organising this.

We returned to school today after a memorable three-day Erasmus+ experience at the Model United Nations conference in Belgium. Our students, Aoibhe, Eleanor and Sam performed exceptionally well, demonstrating strong diplomacy, critical thinking, and public speaking skills. We congratulate Sam Moussoulides for his outstanding achievement of winning the overall prize for Best Delegate in the General Assembly, among no less than 110 delegates from 12 countries. The competition was intense, but our team’s preparation and dedication truly paid off. A big thank you to Ms. Thorpe, our debating teacher, who assisted the students with their position papers and research in the weeks leading up to the event. We returned home with big smiles, proud of our achievements and the valuable lessons we learned. This experience not only strengthened our confidence but also deepened our understanding of global issues and the importance of  international cooperation. We are very grateful to the Erasmus programme and EU funding for making our participation in the conference possible.

This morning, we welcomed in our incoming First Yrs 2025-2026 as they completed their Post-Primary entrance exam. It was great to see all the boys and girls, although maybe a little nervous upon entering, they left with an air of confidence and lightness once it was over. Well done to  everyone, and we look forward to you joining CPC in August.
