Congratulations to our 5th Year students who received a certificate in acknowledgement of their dedication and commitment to their subject areas and school life over the past month.

Students were nominated by their teachers, and Ms Reigh gave out the awards earlier this week during assembly.

A huge thank you to our TY Prefects for helping to set up, welcome and assist parents,  and serve refreshments at the 3rd year Parent Teacher Meeting this evening. The TY Prefects were a huge assistance in helping the evening run smoothly.

Well done all.

A great job done.

Well done to our TY Students who gave their time on Saturday last, 7th October to help the Special Olympics with their Cops and Donuts fundraiser in Newbridge.

Dear parents and guardians,

there are some very interesting (and concerning) statistics (in the attached photo) in a recent report you may have heard about via the media. There is no reason to believe the students of CPC are any different to the young people who took part in this research. Certainly worth consideration and a conversation at home?

Could your family take part in the 24hour digital detox from 5pm on October 20th?

Kind regards

J Leonard

Today our 5th and 6th year LCA classes visited the Criminal Courts of Justice in Dublin where they had an oppurtunity to tour the building, visit courts in session and listen to a presentation from a  Barrister about the Court System in Ireland. Followed by a guided tour of the Aisling Hotel and a presentation on the inner workings of a busy Dublin Hotel. A very worthwhile trip enjoyed by all. Ms Mills
