This year was a bumper year for honey production at our on-site beehive in Naas CBS. Over 7kg of natural, pure honey was extracted and this also included a fabulous batch of Ivy Honey. Every year our beekeeping project with an on-site hive, gives many students the chance to learn about beekeeping and honey production. We were the first school in the country to develop such and initiative and are still one of only a few schools to participate in a beekeeping project and maintain a beehive on the school grounds. Every year we produce amazing honey, full of the flavour and goodness of a variety of local flora. Truly Naas Honey! Our students Barney Hennessy, Conor Murphy, Senan Noone, Paul Desmond and Vova Batkov were busy over mid-term extracting and packaging the honey. Mr. Noone

Our Senior Rugby Team had the amazing opportunity to play an international team; Balmoral College, Argentina. The boys from the CBS started off great but became disjointed against the Argentina side. Roan Ahern kicked well and a try from Jack Byrne kept us in the game. The game finished with victory for Balmoral College with a score of 22:13. Both sides were invited back to the school for some refreshments, where they got to know each other off the pitch. Balmoral presented Mr. Murphy and Mr. Warren with some gifts for hosting them on their European tour. Harry Dunne (captain) presented the winners with a Naas CBS flag and jersey to remember their time here. We look forward to a rematch against them, on their return in the near future. Mr. Warren

Transition Year
Our TY group have been very lucky to get to experience the RSA road safety interactive unit, known as the Shuttle, over the past two days in school. This is a highly popular and educational road safety experience. It’s a superb learning tool to get across important and life-saving road safety messages in a highly memorable way. The lads get the opportunity to: -Practice their driving and hazard perception skills on their state-of the art car, motorbike or bicycle simulators. -Experience first-hand the dangers of driving and texting and driver fatigue. -Try the brake reaction timer to see how driving environments and speed affect your braking distances. -Learn about tyre safety as your tyres are your only contact with the road! -Play interactive road safety games. A huge thank you to the RSA for working with our TY students. Thank you also to St.Corban's Primary school for allowing us to use their car park for the Shuttle Bus.
