39 Colaiste Bhride students headed away early to attend Carlow further education open day on Thursday 29th February, to what was a very worth while experience for all involved. We had an opportunity to experience all what Carlow further education had to offer as well as meet with past colaiste Bhride students and see how they are thriving in their new environments and embracing collage life.  
An extremely worth while experience was had by all and a fantastic opportunity on our door as a local link bus is made available in this area which students can avail of.

One hundred and sixty eight fifth years travelled to the Gaiety Theatre Dublin today to see an amazing production of Sive by John B Keane. The students are studying the play as part of their Leaving Cert English studies and being able to attend a high quality production will certainly enhance their understanding and appreciation of the drama. Although it is set in Ireland many decades ago the themes and issues resonated with everyone. It’s cultural context and influences of society at the time will be studied in greater depth in the classroom in the coming weeks and months.

The first year football team 'Team Bobs' took on Blessington CC in the Wicklow semi final. Unfortunately they were too strong for us on the day and ran out winners after a very strong first half. 
Great credit is due to all the panel who played their best and never threw in the towel. Even though they were drowned wet and very cold they finished with smile on their faces.
Well done all.
 
Thanks to Mr Holly and Mr Dolan

Courageous in Defeat: Coláiste Bhríde, Carnew, Shows Resilience Despite Loss in Basketball Clash.

Match report By Rachael Dee

On Monday the 22nd of January, Colaiste Bhríde Carnew’s u19 girls’ basketball team and their two coaches loaded up a bus and set off to the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght for their All-Ireland quarter and semi-finals.

The girls played St. Louis Rathmines in their quarter final, and although they were nervous, they never showed it for a second.


St. Louis opened the scoring, getting two points on the board, but they didn’t hold their lead for long before Carnew’s Yasmin Dagge levelled the match.
It wasn’t long before Carnew’s youngest player, Grace Colfer, got in on the scoring adding another three points for her team. The Rathmines side got two more points before the quarter ended, leaving the score 5-4 in favour of Carnew.

The second quarter really showcased the teamwork of both teams. Grace Colfer did all the scoring for Carnew, but it was clear she couldn’t have done it without her talented teammates. The help ranged from Yasmin’s skilful screens to Emma Kinnear’s ingenious interceptions. With that being said, St. Louis didn’t make it easy and were constantly on the hunt for scores of their own.

The third quarter opened up on a score line of 17-15 to Carnew. It was during this quarter where it became clear that Grace Colfer was absolutely unstoppable, once again, securing all of Carnew’s scores. The Rathmines team, however, were still relentless in their efforts to gain the lead.

The final quarter opened, and it was clear that Olivia Shannon wanted her name on the scoresheet, and she succeeded in no time by racking up four points for herself. Grace then chipped in adding two more points, which was quickly mirrored by Yasmin.
St. Louis pocketed themselves four points just before Emma Kinnear managed to finally add her name to the list of scorers with a very deserved two pointer.
Grace Colfer closed out the game with a free throw, and her twenty-fifth point of the match!

Final score:
Carnew- 35
St. Louis- 23


A few short hours later, Carnew returned to the court for their semi-final against St Joseph’s Spanish Point Secondary School (Co. Clare)

The game opened on a positive note for Carnew with Olivia Shannon taking lead on the court, scoring back-to-back two pointers followed by a three pointer. Spanish Point quickly retaliated with a three pointer of their own, and from then on it was a back-and-forth battle ending the quarter with Carnew up 14-8.

The second quartered followed a in a similar fashion of back and forth between the teams ending with the score being 21-16 to Carnew.

Spanish Point came into the final half of the game with a vengeance, scoring back-to-back three pointers to level the game. Carnew held strong and never gave in to the tiredness they were undoubtedly feeling after the very physically challenging first half that they endured.

Grace and Olivia continued to add scores to the board along with the support of their team, but unfortunately it just wasn’t enough.

The girls fought to the very end with the help of the subs, the supporters, and most importantly their coaches, Mr. Gleeson and Ms. Dermody, who never once gave up on or let down their team. Many thanks to them. 

Final score:
Carnew- 33
Spanish Point- 43

Best of luck to Spanish Point Secondary School in the All-Ireland Final.

Congratulations to the first year girls soccer team who played out a hard fought 1-1 draw with Coláiste Bhríde Enniscorthy in the Back Alley Carnew. CB Carnew took a one nil lead half way through the second half and looked like they could have held on for the win. Unfortunately with ten to go the Enniscorthy side scored an unstoppable free kick from 20 yards out to draw level.

On the sixteenth of January, two second year students travelled to Google headquarters in Dublin, to represent the school at Google’s Safer Internet Ambassador Training programme.

The students attended informative lectures and participated in group discussions.

However, the highlight of the day for them was listening to a talk and meeting James Doyle, also known as ‘Protein Bor’ who is an Irish Tick-Tok influencer.
