Dear Parents/Guardians,
We had a lovely tree planting ceremony in the school on Wednesday morning, St Brigid's day. The tree was planted in honour of Ceiliúradh CEIST which was celebrated on St Brigid's day. Ceiliúradh CEIST is about recognising the work of the Presentation Sisters and the work that continues on in our school today. The tree is a symbol of how each student can grow and flourish under the care of Scoil Mhuire Community School. It is an evergreen oak tree and we pass it on our way into school every day.
Enjoy the bank holiday week end and school reopens on Tuesday morning.
Kind regards
