🌟 Our Goals, Our Dreams, Our Future! 🌟

2A2 spent the opening weeks of the school year reflecting on their goals, dreams and aspirations with Miss Farrell in SPHE. 💭✨

Students brought their ideas to life by creating their own personalised vision boards, showcasing what they hope to achieve, their interests and what motivates them to succeed! 🎯🌈

A lovely opportunity for students to reflect on their ambitions while expressing their individuality and creativity! Here are some samples of their work 🙂

🏀 Girls’ Basketball – Match Update 🏀

Our U16 and U19 girls travelled to Mountmellick today.
Our U19s came up against a very impressive Mountmellick side, while our U16s suffered a heartbreaking one-point defeat with just 6 seconds left on the clock!

A real nail-biter right to the very end!

Well done to all the girls for their effort, determination and teamwork.

Our second year students were learning about distance, speed and time. In order to figure out who was the faster walker students were recording the time it took to walk 10m. They then had to use their learning to calculate speed. After this they evaluated the reliability of their results.
