European Day of Languages

European Day of Languages was a terrific success, with a busy, busy, busy international soccer tournament on the pitch and a busy, busy, busy table quiz in the hall. As usual with me and sport, I forgot to ask who won!!! The final assembly was a riot of different languages, and prizes and the displays of student work were fabulous. A really, really good day. The whole event was organised by Clare Murphy, assisted on the day by the 6th form languages committee and our two intrepid reporters, Aaron and Charlene. The videos and photos of the events will form the first swap of student work with our Chilean partners. Well done everyone.

Sympathy with Bunscoil Bheanna Boirche

We were horrified to hear of the fire damage to our partner school Bunscoil Bheanna Boirche. We are pleased to hear that they have been offered nearby accommodation and with everyone's support, the school has opened as usual on the first day of term. We were delighted earlier in the year to hear that the new school building had been approved. Roll on the day!
