Big Congratulations to our U19 A team (Players: Sunny Fan / Elizbeth Reys / Elissa Popova / Fiona Wu) who won Girls Div 4 Runner-Up title in Dublin School Badminton U19 Finals!
Today, the whole school community attended the annual Christmas Carol Service. A huge thank you to Ms Browne and Ms O'Shea who planned and organised a beautiful service combining poems, carols and readings reminding us of the nativity story. The 6th year Leadership Team along with the students from our school choir shared their talents and helped make this event a memorable start to the Christmas. Wishing everyone a peaceful and healthy Christmas season.

Well done to Bohan Zhang who came in the top 52 out of 18,500 entries in the Maggie Gough Maths competition.
Well done to the 3rd year students who took part in a fundraising event to raise awareness and funds for the Dublin Simon Community. Last night a group of 3rd year students with their CSPE teacher, Mr Nulty, took part in a 'Sleep-in' in the school sports hall. Students returned to school at 7pm and stayed until 8am this morning. Many thanks to Mr Nulty for organising the event.
Students have sponsorship cards and all donations, no matter how small are greatly appreciated.
Hopefully the 3rd years will hold a couple more events to continue to raise awareness and funds for their chosen charity.
Congratulations to all the students and staff who gave a fantastic and thoroughly enjoyable performance last night at the Christmas Concert. We enjoyed a selection of pieces from both orchestra ensembles and solo performances from a range of students. A big thank you to Ms leMay, Ms Smith, Ms Scully, Ms Gleeson and Ms Forde for giving their time and sharing their talent with the school community. Thank you also to the housekeeping staff who provided some gorgeous refreshments and treats at the intermission.
Wishing everyone a healthy, restful and safe Christmas.
