Creative Schools Project

Our school was selected last year to take part in the Creative Schools Initiative funded by the Arts Council.
The project, chosen by the pupils was to create and record their own song and music video and what a fantastic job they did. Many thanks to our Creative Artist Jane Hayes, Music Producer Gary McCarthy, Creative Schools Staff Co-ordinators and members of the Student Creative Council for all their hard work. Take a moment to view the results of their labour below.

Confirmation and Communion 2021
Our parents in 2nd Classes & 6th Class were sent an email from the Bishop of Cork and Ross about Communion & Confirmation (2021) today. We hope to be able to arrange dates, as soon as we can but cannot do so until there is more certainty. What we didn't want to do was to announce dates that may need to be changed, leading to upset and disappointment for families. We will look forward to these happy occasions, in the near future, & will give you the dates, as soon as we get the go ahead.
