We had a gloriously sunny day last Friday to celebrate our 6th Year’s last day of school. The festivities kicked off with the annual Student/Teacher Match. It was closely fought but with a draw came down to penalties for the decider. The students took the win to great jubilation and we all enjoyed pizza and ice cream in the sun before giving the students a guard of honour leaving the school for the last time! Congratulations all on being a great year group who have achieved so much over the last five years, academically, in sport, the arts and many extra-curricular activities. We are so proud of you all! Check out our gallery of the days events below and we look forward to a wonderful Graduation Evening on Monday the 19th!

A fabulous evening was held on Friday the 9th of May with dinner and an awards ceremony in the Royal Dublin Golf Club celebrating the huge achievements in sport by our 5th and 6th Year students in the last year.
