Yesterday goes down in history as our first ever Semi-Final in the Bank of Ireland Leinster Schools Senior Cup. St. Fintan’s fans came out en masse to support their team and school. Sadly, we lost out to Terenure College who will proceed to the final. Our team’s achievement in reaching this stage of the competition is something to be extremely proud of and to celebrate. We salute you Senior Rugby Team 2025 for your heroic effort and great achievement. Well done all and well done to the magnificent supporters who kept the momentum going until the last minute and beyond. Congratulations Terenure College and here’s to many more memories on the rugby pitch in years to come… Final Score: Terenure 51-Fintans 7

We enjoyed a great day and had lots of fun celebrating Chinese New Year 2025 last Friday, the 7th of February. The whole school was colourfully decorated in red including red fan displays made by students in a special workshop the week before. Tutor time was dedicated to Chinese New Year and all students received a fortune cookie from our Culture & Diversity Team. We enjoyed intercom announcements celebrating the event and Lunchtime was action packed with Jianzi played all through the break on the Astro and music accompanying Chinese Fortune Telling and students queueing up for our ever popular Chopstick Challenge! A very Happy Chinese New Year to all!!
