Our TY Prefects were presented with their badges today by Mr Leonard at their Conferring Ceremony. Each of the badges has a lighthouse symbol displayed on it.  These badges are a visible sign in the school community of who our Prefects are. They symbolise how Prefects are leaders and act as guides to other students. They are a symbol of safety and of someone who can be relied on and asked to help. Our TY Prefects will have a number of roles and responsibilties throughout the school in the year ahead. They will assist with a number of events, activities and projects. Overall they will help to make our school community a more positive and inclusive enviroment. They are a fantastic group of young people and we are very proud of them all!

Congratulations to TY Student Eleanor Steed who was selected as the Cross and Passion College Rotary Youth Leadership school winner. Well done to Adam Bermingham and Sam Gaynor who also did excellent interviews and meant the judges had a very difficult decision. Best of luck to Eleanor when she competes in the Club final on Monday 16th October.

Students created beautiful Swiss Roll cakes today under the direction of Ms M OMalley whose hens provided the delicious free range, organic eggs used in the recipes. A perfect accompaniment to an Afternoon Tea. Sincere thanks to Ms OMalley for generously sharing her eggs as well as expertise and guidance. Well done everyone!

The Ember team held a introduction/icebreaker session with all 1st year classes at different intervals throughout the day on Tuesday.

During the hour, the team introduced their faith leadership role within the school, taught students the Ember prayer and played some icebreaker games. 

The team look forward to working with 1st years, and other year groups, throughout the year to celebrate and mark important feasts, festivals and liturgical services.
