The OLS Charity group did a wonderful job in organising the Gifts to the Crib. Students from each year group gave generously and plenty of children and families are really grateful for the contributions they received. The Gifts to the Crib donations were distributed to the following charities: Tallaght Women's Refuge, Crumlin Children's Hospital, Temple Street Children's Hospital and Saint Vincent De Paul. Below are two of our Charity group members Ingrid Marron and Rachel Davis alongside Gerry Cully from Crumlin Children's Hospital who came to the school to receive toys.

Well done to all the sixth years who entered our Amber flag photo competition. We had a huge number of entries, and there were lots of great photos that brought a smile to our faces. We couldn't decide on a single winner so congratulations to our joint winners Leonie Redmond and Ali Herbert. Over the weeks, we have had lots of fantastic entries so we have attached a small selection here that we hope will brighten up your day. We have another selection on our Amber flag notice board beside the garden.

Work Experience - calling all parents/guardians/contacts!

Our TY students are due to have their 2nd Work Experience week from the 8th to 12th of February 2021. Our hopes are that all students will be able to go out to Work Experience placements and gain valuable insights in to the world of work and future career options but opportunities may be curtailed pending the Covid restrictions at the time. In light of this we are planning some in-school alternatives for the students whose plans may not be possible. We are looking for some volunteers who would be willing to give a talk to the students giving an insight in to their day to day work life, their work/life balance, what courses/training/experiences they completed to get to where they are now, etc. We would like to give the girls a broad perspective of working life so we are looking for a diverse range of fields that will reflect different interests and avenues. The talk might be followed by some Q&A time to allow the students to engage fully with the experience. If you are willing to volunteer for a talk with the students please email workexperience@olschool.ie with a date and time that might suit during the above week. Many thanks in advance for your assistance with this.
