The 1st years had their RE reflection day on Wednesday. They took time out of the typical school day to pause and reflect. They went to Mass, designed flowers with things they are grateful for, meditated with the guidance of Sr.Kate, learned the story of our founder Pierre Bienvenu Noailles and walked to the grotto. The HFY students also spent the day with them. A most enjoyable morning for everyone involved. 

Monday the 11th of September 2023 saw our first badge ceremony for leadership in the Holy Family. 162 students across a broad range of leadership areas received their badges. We are incredibly proud of our student leaders and look forward to the great ideas, support and contribution they will bring to our school community. Congratulations to our senior prefect team, class prefects and vice prefects, Holy Family youth, Green prefects, Student council representatives, Anti-bullying ambassadors and extra curricular leaders in the area of Music, Art and Sports.

A huge well done to our students and the students from the Patrician Secondary School who auditioned for main parts in our upcoming collaborative school musical Grease. We finally have white smoke after a week of high drama, scene reads and singing and we are delighted to reveal our wonderful cast list! Congratulations to all involved. We cannot wait to see you on stage from the 23rd - 26th of October. 

Today we held our annual 1st Year Sports Day. Throughout the day the students got to sample many of the extra-curricular sports we have on offer. The day finished with a Catch and Throw tournament which forms a part of the annual 1st Year Cup.
A special thanks to the 5th Year Leaving Cert PE class for aiding the running of the activities throughout the day.

Extra-curricular sports and clubs will begin over the next few weeks. Please remind your daughter to check Teams regurlarly to find the timetable of activities.

Well done to all students and staff on completing the first full and very warm week of the school year. As a small treat on one of the hottest days of 2023, ice cream and refreshments were provided this afternoon for all to cool down and enjoy!
