Well done to all to all the students who partook in the LIFT leadership training with Naas Community College on Thursday. Our new 15 leaders will train their peers how to be effective leaders. Well done to Shóna Kelly and Sarochinee Ashe who represented Our Lady's at the 2020 Le Chéile conference in Athlone. We wish all the students the best of luck in their work experience placements over the coming week and we hope they have a restful midterm break before they return to us on the 24th of February. Please see some notices below for the week after the midterm. Students will be receiving subject talks from each senior cycle subject in order to ensure they will make informed choices about their Leaving Certificate subjects. These will be happening during the school day. Parents are reminded to read the subject choice letter in regards this which was posted on the app yesterday. More information can also be found on www.olschool.ie under the Guidance Department Tab in the 'Subject Choice Booklet for LC 2022'. An information talk for parents will be held by the guidance department in the Lecture Theater on Tuesday the 25th of February at 7pm. All parents are encouraged to attend. After the Subject Choice talk, a meeting for the parents of all students attending the TY Poland trip will be held in the Lecture Theater. Here you will receive all the details of the trip and fill out some necessary paperwork. If you cannot attend please inform Ms. Phillips asap as you will need to arrange to complete the paperwork.  On Tuesday the 25th of February your daughter will be partaking in a positive mental health workshop - SOAR. This will happen within normal school times, and on school grounds. Your daughter is entitled to wear her school tracksuit and TY hoodie if she would like to.  On Friday the 28th of February all TYs have their final Development Day. Ls and Ps will have their retreat, Cs will have First Aid and Bs will have a movie making workshop.

A reminder to parents/guardians that over the next two weeks mock and house exams are running in the school at different times for different year groups. Please note the following: If your daughter has a morning exam, she must be in her exam centre for 8.25am for morning registration. If she does not have a morning exam and is studying at home, with your permission, she must be in her exam centre at 12.50pm for afternoon registration. If your daughter does not have an exam and is not staying in school for optional supervised study, she may study at home with your permission. If your daughter has class rather than exams during the two weeks, on those days the school day starts at 8.30am, lunch is at 12pm and school finishes at 3pm. Otherwise, times are as per exam timetables published last week. The canteen is operational for the duration of the two weeks and is located in Room 3 rather than Lourdes Hall. Many thanks.

We at OLS are delighted to announce that one of our very own students, Charlotte Gallaher, has been named as one of the 20 finalists in the 2020 Pramerica Spirit of Community Awards. This a prestigious, nationwide award that recognises students who have made a positive difference and contribution to society and to their community. Among the prominemt personalities who have participated in the programme are Bertie Ahern, John Hume, Catriona Ruane, Mickey Harte, Declan Kidney, John Lonergan, Martin O' Neill, Brent Pope, Niall Breslin (Bressie), Joanne O' Riordan and Richie Sadler. Over the years, Charlotte Gallaher has volunteered with various cancer charities and works selflessly to help others through this cause. Only a 1st Yar pupil, our B1 Charlotte is most certainly an inspiration to us all and a worthy candidate. 500 euro will be presented to her chosen charity and she will receive an engraved silver medal. Charlotte will also be attending an awards ceremony in March in the Titanic Belfast Building. Congratulations Charlotte! We are so lucky to have such an outstanding young person at our school.
