Students enjoyed the opportunity to have fun with their colleagues while celebrating the learning, teamwork and impact of the many initiatives they carried out with the support of their teacher Ms Qunito. 

The 1st year prefects received a small gift from the 1st year students this afternoon to thank them for all of their hard work throughout the year. They then joined the 1st years for an end of year celebratory ice-cream. 

The 1st year prefects played an integral role in helping the 1st year students settle into secondary school life in CPC. They organised several activities for the 1st years throughout the year also. 

Thank you to the prefects.

Congratulations to our 2nd years on your many and varied achievements. You have represented your class, year group and your school very well this year and should be proud of all your efforts, both those listed above and those not. Thanks to all your class teachers, SNAs, subject teachers and coaches who supported and guided you this academic year. 

Pat spoke about his own experience as a carpenter to his position as the head of Quality Assurance, Quality Control and Management Control systems in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia and Kenya.  It was a fascinating talk and gave great insights to the various roles a person may pursue as part of a career in the construction sector. 

Our TY students were happy to receive their Junior Cycle Profile of Achievement Certificates recently. Mr Leonard spoke about the changes in Junior Cycle that focuses on students developing confidence and gaining skills. The JCPA provides recognition for all the additional experiences and achievements your son/ daughter/ student has outside the traditional exam and assessments. Our thanks to Ms Higgins for organising the certificates and the presentation ceremony.
