Recycling old batteries and Christmas Cards

After Christmas you might have old used batteries that you’d like to recycle. You can bring them in to school and leave them in the battery collection boxes available in the reception area or in the staff room. 
The Green Schools Committee are also recycling old Christmas cards. There is a box available in reception for these. 
Just remove any messages or names. Only the picture is needed. They will be used for art projects. 
Thank you.

Ms Bucke and the Community Care Class arranged a wonderful visit to Willow Brook Nursing Home. The students sang a range of songs, played the guitar, keyboard, and violin. They then played Bingo with the residents with five winning prizes! Students then presented handmade Christmas cards and a gift to each resident. It was a truly special experience for everyone involved and a reflection of our school ethos.

- The U17 boys soccer team had a 5-4 victory vs Dunlavin.
- 1st year boys rugby teams competed well in their blitz in Newbridge, winning 4, drawing 3 and losing 3 games. 
- The U16 boys volleyball team were narrowly beaten by Athenry in Limerick.
- Commiserations to the U16 boys basketball team on losing the Leinster final vs Baltinglass, however they are still through to the play off series so the season is not over yet!
 
- Unfortunately the junior boys GAA team were beaten away to Rathangan.
- Well done to the 1st year girls rugby team who beat Holy Family on Monday.
- Well done the U19 soccer team who were 5-1 winners over Piper's Hill. This means that they top the group and will have a home semi  final after Christmas.

1st year subject options

Dear parents/guardians,

1st year students received their subject options this morning.

You will appreciate that with 144 students and 7 subjects, it is a logistical challenge to try to accommodate the preferences of the students. Invariably some subjects will be oversubscribed and we are limited by the class capacity numbers as well as physical and human resources.

We have worked hard to try to get the best outcome for all students. I am delighted to say that every student has been given their top choice.

Most students will be delighted with the outcome but there could be some who would like to be added to a waiting list should a place become available in a particular subject. If this is the case please send me an email to joeleonard@cpckilcullen.com and I will contact you if a change becomes possible.

I wish all of our students continued success in their studies.

Kind regards

J Leonard

Students really enjoyed our Barista Training with the Dublin Barista School. The tutors Nina, Karl and Adam explained how the machines work and spoke about the job opportunities available to baristas world wide. It was a very valuable (and delicious!) experience.
