Our  Assistant TY Ambassadors are Emma Harris, Emily Strong and Clodagh Burdis. They are joined by 5th Year Ambassador  Aoibhe Toft and 5th Year Assistant Ambassador Zara Hayden. The Shona Project Team will provide training and guidance.  We are looking forward to the various activities our ambassador team will organise and lead.

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. Zoe Thakaberry and Rebecca Brown tell us "it was great experience. We met lovely people with great intentions and the doughnuts were very delicious"

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

They train the students, organise games, wash jerseys and organise all of the logistics. Congratulations to Rhys Byrne, Matthew O Gorman, Conor Clarke and Luke Costello for this great achievement. 

Well done all!

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!
