We ask all students to wear orange for our Rag day tomorrow, Friday 8th February, to promote Positive Mental Health. The key message from this event is that 'It’s OK not to feel OK, and it’s absolutely OK to ask for help'.

On an unrelated note I want to thank all those boys who have returned their sponsorship for the joint Childhood Cancer Foundation and Crumlins Childrens Hospital Christmas fundraising project. It is extremely disappointing, despite numerous reminders, that there are still about 40 boys who have not. We like to increase the boys awareness of Organisations that do such great and necessary work for people who may be less well off, less healthy and less fortunate than themselves. Can you please double check with your son if he has returned his money and card or check in with me by email.
