The TY Green Schools Committee is applying for the Green flag for "Water". The aim is to create awareness among the school committee about water conservation. The committee will be conducting a water awareness campaign as well as promoting changes in behaviors relating to water usage over the next two years. A survey was completed by students and the results will be used to identify areas we need to improve on. Each week the committee will include a fact about water on the school app./website. The committee would appreciate your support with this project by reading the facts and thinking about them.  Thank you.
Catholic Schools Week - Wednesday -(Grandparents’ Day) Celebrating Being Together Again

Today we reflect on the role that older people, and in particular grandparents, play in our lives. As the country opens up, many of us have been reunited with our loved ones. During the pandemic, older people, and possibly our own grandparents, were placed in the vulnerable category and asked to cocoon in order to stay safe. As our country re-opens and the vaccination programme has rolled out, we are now able to reconnect with our older and vulnerable loved ones. And yet, while they were placed in the ‘vulnerable’ category, our love and bond with them was stronger than ever. We learned to appreciate any connection with them. Now the ‘cloud has been lifted’ and in our Catholic school we identify the ways in which older people enrich our lives. We thank God for their presence in our lives. They are part of our Catholic school community through their connection with us.

Our 2nd year students are taking part in a January Challenge to promote positive student behaviour throughout the school day. Teachers award students with points for their positive behaviour such as effort and work in class, helpfulness and being respectful. Students have really got into the spirit of it and are trying very hard across subjects to earn points for their class. Well done 2nd years. Keep up the great effort! Ms Mills

Catholic Schools Week - Tuesday - Living life to the Full Together

Today we reflect on how inclusive our Catholic school is. The new Junior Cycle specification underpins every aspect with a call to question, explore, enquire and reflect. These four verbs are critical to creating an environment of inclusion – a place where everyone, of all faiths and none, is accepted and welcomed. Today we reflect on the times that we have been encouraged to question, to explore, to enquire and to reflect. These skills should be fostered to the greatest extent, not just in our Religious Education class, but in every classroom in a Catholic school.

Students were invited during Religion classes today to write a prayer intention to hang on the prayer tree, if they wished. This will continue during this week, Catholic schools week, so that everyone will have had the opportunity to do so. It is lovely to see students put forward their various prayer intentions including remembering loved ones who have passed as well as those who are sick.

Catholic Schools Week - Monday - Living life to the full with God
Created : 20 Jan 2022, 9:04 PM

Today we reflect on how, for Catholics, living our life to the full means living our life with God. We have various images of God, and these images can change as we journey through life. Therefore, as the life of the Catholic and the life of God are intertwined, so too are the life of a Catholic school and the life of God. Walford Davies wrote a hymn called ‘God Be in My Head’. On an individual level we pray ‘God be in my heart and in my thinking’. We pray that ‘God will be in the heart and in the thinking’ of all our Catholic schools. We hope to see God’s love in action every day, but especially as we gather to celebrate the sacraments.
