Well done to all our singers, musicians and readers who performed at the Edmund Rice Schools’ Trust (ERST) Principals’ Conference in Johnstown House Estate, Enfield last week. The theme of the conference was partnership. The students put together a mix of reflective and uplifting readings and songs to symbolise the values of ERST and to show the meaning of partnership in our communities. 

 

It was great to hear our students coming together to showcase the values of the Edmund Rice Schools' Trust (ERST) through music and readings on the theme of promoting partnership. These kinds of gatherings can be a powerful way to inspire and remind everyone of the importance of working together and fostering a sense of community. It's also a testament to the talents and dedication of the singers, musicians, and readers who participated in the conference. Celebrating and promoting such values can have a lasting impact on the school community and beyond.

 

We extend our gratitude to ERST for their excellent care during the event and we sincerely hope they enjoyed our performance.

From Monday 2nd to Friday 6th October Naas CBS celebrated their annual Wellbeing Week. During the week all students got the opportunity to engage in a number of activities to raise awareness and highlight the importance of wellbeing and of minding ourselves every week.

 

Students learned about ways to look after and promote their wellbeing. They also went on walks around Naas and enjoyed the fresh air and good weather while it lasted!


Throughout the week therapy dog Muffin visited a number of classes and students learned about the benefits of dog therapy.

It was a 14-14 draw on Wednesday for our Junior Rugby Team against the High School in Rathgar. A good performance from Naas CBS against a strong High School side. Next match will be against King’s Hospital so best of luck to the lads in that.

Meet Muffin, our wonderful therapy dog! Newfoundlands are known for their gentle and friendly nature, making them great companions for therapy and emotional support.

 

Muffin visited our school during Wellbeing week and brought joy to both students and staff. Dogs like Muffin have a special way of brightening people’s days and providing comfort and emotional support. It's great to see the positive impact that therapy animals can have on the overall wellbeing of those they interact with.

Muffin is becoming such a beloved member of our school community.

Thank you to Ms. Skelton for sharing Muffin the dog with us.

Congratulations to 66 of our 5th Year students who received the Bronze Gaisce Award in recognition of their commitment to The President's Award during T.Y. 

To achieve the award, the boys completed the required number of weeks for their selected physical activity, personal skill and community involvement. They also participated in the adventure trip to Carlingford. Well done to all!

We would encourage the current T.Y. students to use their time productively and work towards achieving the Bronze Gaisce Award this year.
