Well done to the CBS Badminton teams who competed in the Kildare Championships in Kilcullen. The senior team narrowly missed out on progressing to the Leinster finals by a 6 point differential in the final match with Newbridge.
The Under 16s won all of their matches and will represent Kildare in Div 2 of Leinster in March. The two under 14 teams did not manage to progress but enjoyed a busy day with lots of games won.
Practise continues for everyone on Tuesdays at lunchtime.

Christmas Reports for 2019 are now available to view. These reports can be accessed through the VSWare tab on the school app (see image below). We recommend that reports are viewed using the 'Print' option under the 'Actions' tab on the right had side of your son's VSWare account as it is much clearer to view.

A reminder to all parents regarding VSWare - if you have not already reset or created your own password to access VSWare you must do so in order to view reports. Due to new GDPR regulations the school can now only generate usernames for all parents to access their son's account. These usernames were sent as a text to all parents a month ago. To reset your password please click the 'create/reset password' button on the VSWare login page (see image below). Parents will be asked for the last four digits of their mobile phone number when resetting the password. To view VSWare on a laptop or computer you can click the VSWare icon on the main page of our school website or use this link naascbs.vsware.ie
