Weekly Update from Principal

Dear Parents/Guardians,

A reminder that school closes all of next week and we re-open on Monday June 9th.

75th Anniversary - a huge thanks!

A huge thanks to everyone who made last Saturday so special for our school. It was a day filled with memories, nostalgia, laughter and many stories down through the years. It was marked by lots of special moments and so lovely to hear the beautiful choir and music at our celebration mass. Thanks to the staff who helped in so many ways for the last few weeks and months, your dedication and enthusiasm for this school does not go unnoticed. To the pupils who gave so much and who performed and sang on the day - your talent amazes us. And finally to the wonderful parents and friends group and many others who contrinuted in so many ways over the past few months - it was a joy to see and to be a part of it. I won't mention any names in particular because there were too many to mention. But your attention to detail and the colour and life you brought to the school was felt by all.

There is an article online on the People Paper which will be printed next week - you can see that here:
