Grandparents’ Day 

We just want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you for a wonderful Grandparents’ Day on Wednesday. The whole day was filled with joy, happiness and lots of emotions. All the Grandparents and special guests had a lovely time visiting the classrooms and spending time chatting over a cup of tea or coffee and cake in our School Hall. We also remembered all the Grandparents / guests who could not be here today through our dedicated Sacred Space. To our amazing staff, míle buíochas. Your dedication and hard work meant the day was both meaningful and memorable. An enormous thank you also to our prefects who enjoyed using their clipboards, as they escorted visitors around the school. To our wonderful PTA and parent volunteers, your support and enthusiasm added a special touch to the day. Thank you for looking after the grandparents and guests so well. Umpteen cups of tea and coffee were made!! Finally, to our incredible pupils, thank you for your super displays, classroom work and most importantly your lovely warm smiles which brightened the day for all the Grandparents and guests.
