We had a lovely Chat and Connect session with our 5th year students during their RE class today.

The session began with students writing letters to themselves that they will open on their Graduation Morning in 6th year. 

Students enjoyed a hot drink and some nice sweet treats. 

It was lovely to give the students time to chat and enjoy each other's company. 

Thank you to the 5th year RE teachers for organising this.

We gathered some of our 5th year students today for a special assembly with those who achieved the highest results in their 5th Year Christmas Exams to acknowledge their ongoing Academic Success and to celebrate their hard work to date. Ms McDonnell Guidance Counsellor spoke about the statistics from LC 2024 and how this group of students are reaching such high grades already that are often limited to small groups of students across the country. Ms Duffy Guidance Counsellor spoke to the students about positive self talk and remembering how well they are doing and how proud they should be of themselves.

Students were encouraged to always do their best and to keep aiming high.

Very proud of this group of students!!

Well done all.

Last Thursday, 3rd April, Students from CPC'S Ember team, TY and 5th year were selected to attend the Le Cheile Student Symposium in Knock, County Mayo. 

The day began with a welcome and reflection, followed by Mass in the Basilica with other Le Cheile schools across the county. We then had lunch outside in the sunshine! The afternoon consists of various workshops for students to engage in with other schools.

Students enjoyed a great day at Knock Shrine as it was an opportunity to reflect and learn about the story of Knock.

Well done to  Amy Schmelter, James Meehan, Mikey Arthur, Katie O'Donnell, Ailbhe Cashin, Weronika Stepniak , Sarah Brennan, Gemma Snell Fox and Ruby Butler

We were delighted to hold our first ever #SameChance Walk in conjunction with AsIAm, Irelands National Autism Charity to celebrate Autism Acceptance Week. 1st Year, 2nd Year, Transition Year and 5th Year Prefects all took part in this really successful event. Students and staff alike enjoyed getting out into the sunshine and raising awareness for this really important cause.

Thank you to all who took part but a special thank you to Ms Kelly and the 5th Year Prefects for guiding the walk, to Brian Byrne for the wonderful photographs and to 6th Year student James Reid for providing the fantastic drone footage. See you all again next year!

It was a fantastic day exploring many career paths along with enjoying the thrill of competition. 

Dear students,

please remember to put all rubbish in bins provided, both on the school grounds and when in Kilcullen and beyond. I was surprised to hear a report that a small number of CPC students were seen dropping litter when in Kilcullen. Let's all keep our school and our town litter free.

Thank you.
