Well done to the First, Second, Third, Fifth and Sixth Years on completion of your exams.

Happy Toy Show Friday! Hope you have a relaxing weekend and we will see you all on Monday. 

A big congratulations to all our students who got their Junior Cycle results today. You should all be very proud of yourselves...we certainly are! The results that arrived today are testament to the girls' determination, resilience and the hard work of students and staff alike. There were a phenomenal number of distinctions and higher merits and many, many individual successes across the board. Congratulations to all!

Owing to the examinations this week, there will be a limited canteen service. Nevertheless, there's plenty on offer to fuel the body and mind, between examinations, as the canteen will continue to run at break and lunch throughout the week. Please find attached the menu for the week ahead.

We have a limited number of these in stock and more on order so if you want an OLS Noggin hat, you can pay through Easy Payments (pay.easypaymentsplus.com/feepay1v2.aspx?id=953) and collect your hat from Ms Phelan's office.

A reminder to TY students that they can only collect their results in school on Wednesday morning if their employer is amenable to this. If it does not suit a work place, students can get their results on-line at 4pm using the PIN number they were given on Friday. Students coming to school to get results can collect them between 10-11am in the Lecture Theatre, or after that, from Reception. Results cannot be given out to anyone other than the student themselves. 

Many thanks

Reminder to students and parents that a full school uniform needs to be worn for the duration of their exams, not their school tracksuit. Exceptions only made for students that have extra curricular sports at lunch or after school. 

Many thanks.

A reminder to 2nd Year parents to submit consent for this trip via the forms section on the app and payment via Easy Payments (link on the school website).

Many thanks.
