Dear Parents / Guardians. Hello I am Ivanna and I am a Student of Loreto Foxrock and i am from Ukraine myself and my class 4R have a message for the school community of Loreto Foxrock. Currently there are half a million people who have been displaced due to the crisis occurring in the Ukraine. In response to this, our class has decided to collect money to support and help the refugees and we are asking the whole school to get involved. We are asking all families to donate via the school app to support the Irish Red Cross and Unicef who are providing essential food, water, shelter and medical supplies. If every family donated as little as €5then we can raise over €3000 to support people affected by the conflict. Thanks for your support and together our school can make a difference. Please look for the donation on the school shop section of the school app. Many thanks, 4R

Hard luck to our Senior A Basketball team who narrowly missed out on an All Ireland final slot in their match v Loreto Letterkenny yesterday. The girls, without star player Jennifer Leavy, battled all the way through and played exceptionally well in a hard fought battle. They eventually lost out in extra time after an incredible match. You did the school and all your supporters proud. We would also like to thank all the parents, grandparents and school supporters for coming out and cheering them on. It was great to see so much school spirit in action. We look forward to the girls finishing off their season in the Loreto League.
