CPC woods are in Bloom.

The native bluebells planted by the staff in October are starting to flower. These were put in as part of our biodiversity initiative and with funding from the Kilcullen Credit Union. The hope is that they will develop into a lovely blue carpet like many of the woods in Kildare are famous for, and will be a further amenity for the school and town.
Attached are some beautiful photos of the bluebells taken by Ms. Higgins and some spectacular views from our small woods before the bluebells came into bloom taken by Mr. Potterton.
The public are more than welcome to take a walk in our small woods outside of school hours (9am-4pm) to enjoy the nature.

Hi all,
I am writing to let you know that that CUBS at UCC are running the HEA summer school online in "Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Creativity" again in 2021.
This programme has been hugely popular with second level students interested in developing the entrepreneurial skills and ideas.
The programme is free with lots of great prizes to be won and runs for one week in July from the 5th to the 9th of July.
We would be delighted if you could share this with your students as places will be limited.
Students can apply by e-mailing ronan.ofarrell@ucc.ie
Kind regards,

June Fest Poetry Competition

Poetry competition open to people of all ages resident on the Island of Ireland – with a prize fund of €780.
Full details are set out in the attachment
As a former post-primary principal, I am very aware that there are a lot of budding poets in post-primary schools. Indeed, only this week I read a stunning poem by a 15-year-old that will probably never be read by other than some of his immediate family.
Unlike other areas of interest such as sport, poets have very few opportunities to showcase their talent. Nor do they receive any great support or encouragement from the wider society. In recognition of this, June Fest, in Newbridge is running a poetry competition as part of its 2021 festival.
Full details will be on the new June Fest Website (www.junefest.ie/) later in the the month when it is launched.
Many thanks for your kind assistance in this matter.
Kind regards
Pat O’Mahony
June Fest Secretary
