Dear 6th Year Students / Parents ,

Please see the attached PDF from The State Examinations Commission which gives details on the scheme for deferred Leaving Certificate examinations for 2023.

Kind regards,

The Management Team 

A reminder to the 5th Year students who are applying for Meitheal that the interviews are on Wednesday 3rd May. The interviews will take place in the Prayer Room and a schedule will be put up on the door of the Prayer Room on Tuesday. Students will be called from class when it is their turn to interview.

Well done to all the third year classes who engaged with the fantastic Energy and Sustainability workshops in recent weeks. The boys learned about sustainability and different types of energy in fun and hands-on workshops with The Rediscovery Centre.

Mr. Stephens

Congratulations to 6th Year Student Ryan Sinkey and the Kildare U-20 Team who claimed a back to back Leinster Title on Tuesday evening, overcoming Dublin after extra time in Netwatch Cullen Park. Congratulations also to Mr. Cribbin who is involved with the Kildare U-20s in his role as selector. There are twelve past-pupils on the Kildare U-20 panel, representing the clubs of Naas, Raheens and Sallins. Sallins Man Colm Dalton scored the equalising point to send the match to extra time.

Ryan Sinkey enjoyed the added accolade of earning the Man of the Match Award for his brilliant performance and contribution of four points from play.  A Leinster Title and Man of the Match Award – not a bad return for a Tuesday evening in April!

It was fitting that Kildare faced Dublin in the Leinster Final as it was against the same opposition that Ryan made his debut for the Kildare U-20s in the league. He came on as a sub that day and chipped in with two points. Since then, Ryan has featured as a talisman for Kildare scoring a number of points in each of the five championship games.

Well done to Ryan on this fantastic achievement. We are very proud of you and the Naas CBS past-pupils crowned Leinster Champions with the Kildare U-20s. The future is white!

Best of luck to 6th Year student Ryan Sinkey and our past-pupils who represent Kildare in the U-20 Leinster Final v Dublin this evening at Netwatch Cullen Park. Good luck also to Mr. Cribben who is a selector with the Kildare U-20 Team. A great occasion for the team and the county!

Well done to some of our TY students who took part in the Bank of Ireland Money Smarts Challenge this week in the RDS.

They came away with some vouchers thanks to quick responses to some catchphrase style questions!

A huge thanks to Ms.Lennon for coordinating the group.

Well done to our team of 3rd Year science students for participating in the annual ISTA Junior Science Quiz in Coláiste Lorcáin, Castledermot last night. Special thanks to Ms. Lawlor for going along with the team. 

Ms. Houlihan

It was a pleasure to welcome parents of our Transition Year group into the school last night as part of our TY Parents Evening.

Our TY students put together an exhibition showcasing many of the areas that are incorporated into our TY programme.

The lads also presented some of their portfolio to their parents, peers and teachers. I have received fantastic feedback about the quality of these presentations and I am hugely grateful to our students for the effort they put into the evening.

I want to take this opportunity to thank parents for their continued support. Without this, the year would not be in any way as successful as it is.

A huge thank you is also owed to Mr.Travers and the management team, the  teachers and support staff of our TY group who are so dedicated to the students, the caretakers Anthony, Alan & Timmy who are always on hand to help, and the school secretaries who do so much work behind the scenes.

I have included some images from the evening for you to view.

Thanks again,

S.Coy
