Our Nativity Play took place on Thursday 19th in St. Mary’s Church, Raheen.

Well done to all the children for their hard work rehearsing over the last number of weeks.  It was well worth all the effort.  It was wonderful to see such support from parents, grandparents, past pupils and the wider community.

Thanks to all of our teachers and SNAs for their hard work preparing the children.  Thanks also to Msgr. Coonan for his help throughout the year.

We held our annual Bring & Buy Sale in aid of St. Vincent de Paul on Friday 13th December.  Thanks to everyone’s support over €700 was raised.

Some pupils from 6th Class who helped organise the sale presented members of our local St. Vincent de Paul with the proceeds.

All pre-enrolment applications for Junior Infants starting in September 2020 should be sent in to the office by Friday 24th January 2020.  Any parent who has done so already should contact the school to confirm.
