  • HOCKEY
  • The first year leagues were the focus of the week this week with 6 league games scheduled.
  • On Tuesday the second and third teams took on Muckross Park at home in Our Lady's. The second team started off with a great 3-1 win even after going behind early in the game. Unfortunately the third team did not have as much luck and found themselves up against a strong Muckross team who scored four goals unanswered. Both teams played some super hockey and will take that into the remainder of the season.
  • The third team were back in action again on Wednesday when they welcomed Loreto Foxrock to Our Lady's. The girls were keen to bounce back after their loss on Tuesday and despite going one nil down early in the match, they stuck to their game plan and worked extremely hard throughout the game and rightfully came out on top after two great goals to win it and take all 3 points. Well done girls, a super team effort!
  • On Friday the First year A team had a hard fought draw with Alexandra College. The girls played some brilliant hockey and were unlucky to not get all three points.
  • On Saturday morning, the second and third first year teams are in action again, this time away to Sion Hill. Saturday morning also sees the Senior A team play the Trophy quarter final against St Raphaelas away. Good luck girls!
  • Next week sees the Junior A team play St Mary's Naas away in the semi final of the league on Wednesday at 2.30pm. Thursday sees the Minor A play St Columbas at home in OLS, with the game tipping off at 4.15pm. Good luck girls!

Culture Week Fashion Show 

What an incredible Fashion Show we had Thursday! It was an absolute triumph, thanks to everyone who attended and participated. From the vibrant colours of Ireland's traditional attire to the elegant garments of Sri Lanka, and the rich cultural heritage of Somalia and Ethiopia, each country's representation added to the beauty and diversity of the event. We were also mesmerised by the intricate designs from South Africa, the vibrant fabrics from Mauritius, and the timeless elegance of Chinese fashion. Everyone’s enthusiasm and support made today's event truly special, and we're grateful for your participation. As we reflect on today's success, we're already looking forward to next year's Fashion Show, promising to make it bigger and better than ever before. Thank you once again for making Thursday's Fashion Show a resounding success! ~Ms. Filaih
