Andrew O’Leary and Noah Giltinan have been selected to represent Ireland for the second year running at the Coupe de la Jeunesse in Amsterdam at the end of July! ????????????????????????

In further good news, Ben Mullane and Adam Hartley have also been selected to represent Ireland, this time at the Home International Regatta on July 22nd !????????????????????????

This is a huge achievement for the lads and a most welcome boost for the Pres Junior 18 squad as we prepare for the National Championships this weekend at the National Rowing Centre, Inniscarra. We have 7 boats competing across the Junior 16 and 18 grades over the course of the 3 day regatta.   

Best of luck to everyone competing. 

Huge congratulations to Matthew Wilkins who was victorious in the Intermediate Boys Triple Jump in the National Schools' Track and Field Championships yesterday in Tullamore. Matthew leapt out to 12.58m to secure the gold, improving on the silver medal he won in the same event last year. He also set a new personal best of 3.20m in the Pole Vault to secure a 4th place finish.

Matthew has been selected to represent Munster in the upcoming Tailteann Games, where he will have an opportunity to qualify for the National Team that will be competing in the SIAB Schools' International Track and Field competition. This Irish team will be travelling to Scotland next month to compete. Best of luck Matthew!!

Other athletes competing yesterday were Conor Twomey and Oscar Naughton in the 1500m and Javelin respectively. No medals this time, but excellent performances from both athletes!

Thank you again to all parents and guardians for their continued support.

Congratulations to all of the 4th year students who received their Bronze Gaisce Awards today. A fantastic achievement, well done to all.

Lovely to see Pres TY students Ronan McCarthy and Ian Crowley honoured with some of their poetry on public display in Fitzgerald’s Park at the moment.

Established and award winning poets are placed alongside emerging poets, young poets and intercultural voices celebrating the diversity of life and literature in the city.

Well done boys and keep and eye out for other poems by Pres students around the parks of Cork during the summer.

Pictured on a walk-by at the installation in Fitzgerald’s Park yesterday are Pres teachers Eleanor Walsh, Caleb Sheehan, Sean O Brien, David O Riordan and Éanna Ó Loingsigh .

We are thrilled to congratulate to our 6th year Chemistry pupils, Andrew Cuddigan, Jack O'Connor, Patrick Moroney, and William Hetherington, on their remarkable achievement in the prestigious Pfizer Chemistry Quiz. The talented quartet secured an outstanding third place out of 30 teams from County Cork.

Held last night at the Raffeen Golf Clubhouse in Ringaskiddy, organized in co-operation with the Irish Science Teachers Association. The highly competitive event provided an exciting platform for students to showcase their knowledge and enthusiasm for Chemistry.

Well done and congratulations once again!
