STARCAMP - Awarded "BEST SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE 2020" at Irish Enterprise Awards
Best wishes to all our students beginning their Junior Cycle and Leaving Certificate examinations tomorrow.
You have worked hard to reach this point. Trust your preparation, believe in yourself and take each exam one question at a time.
A few reminders:
Get a good night's sleep.
Arrive in plenty of time.
Read each question carefully.
Start with the questions you feel most confident answering.
Bring water and stay hydrated.
**Don't rush to leave early - use all the time available to you.
When the exam is finished, give yourself permission to switch off. Avoid comparing answers or analysing every detail with others. What is done is done and your energy is best spent preparing for the next day.
Most importantly, remember that these exams are only one part of your story. They do not define your worth, your talents, or your future. Each of you has your own path ahead, filled with opportunities, possibilities and success in many different forms.
Be proud of how far you've come.
Wishing every student the very best of luck in the days and weeks ahead.

🎓 Graduation Class of 2026 🎓
On Wednesday 20th May, we bid a fond farewell to the wonderful Class of 2026. It was a beautiful and meaningful occasion beginning with Mass celebrated by Fr Collins and Fr Larkin. The prayers, symbols, music and reflections were all chosen and composed by the students themselves, making the ceremony all the more special. 💫
As a year group, they have always been bursting with talent and a spirit of fun, and that was evident throughout the ceremony. Class of 2026, as you reach this crossroads leading to new roads, we thank you for the memories, laughter, achievements and contributions you have made to our school community. 🌟
We are immensely proud of all that you have accomplished and have no doubt that each of you will go on to achieve great things. As you begin the next chapter of your journey, may you embrace every opportunity, face challenges with confidence, and always believe in yourselves.
Wishing you every success, happiness and blessing for the future. Once part of our school family, always part of our school family. 💙
