Congratulations to our newly appointed Head Girl, Isabelle Barton-Murphy, and Deputy Head Girl, Eabheann Conneely!

Selected by their peers in 6th Year and their teachers, these outstanding students have earned this honor through their dedication and leadership.

We have every confidence that they will excel in their roles, proudly representing both the school and the student body with distinction.

As a means of displaying their projects and assignments throughout the year, TY students will be creating a Padlet Account. This is an online platform where students upload their work to be graded and reviewed for their half/end of year assessments.
