Ms. Murphy's 6th Year Biology Class travelled to Lullymore Heritage Park yesterday to complete their Ecology Field Study. The boys represented themselves and the school exceptionally well.

It was an added bonus to have dry weather for the duration of the practical! Well done to all.

After School Courses for TY Students

Transition Year
Some incoming TY students may be interested in either of these after school courses taking place in St.Marys Secondary School.
Chinese for Beginners - Starts Monday 5th September from 4:15pm to 5:15pm
Chess for Beginners (or those who dabbled before!) - Starts Tuesday 6th September from 4:15pm to 5:15pm.
These courses will take place in St Mary's College for 13 weeks. Please note there Chinese will not be run on October 3rd as the school is closed for the day & there will be no classes during midterm as you'd expect.
The cost for the course is €80 & can be paid using the easy payments link below;
pay.easypaymentsplus.com/feepay1v2.aspx?id=916
The idea is to help students with their personal skill/recreational pursuit for Gaisce, hence the 13 weeks but they can do it purely as a hobby either.
If anyone has trouble registering, please email nightclasses@smcn.ie
