End of an era as our beloved crossing warden Tony moves on
Friday, 08.03.2024 marked the end of an era as our beloved crossing warden, Tony Fitzgerald, hung up his reflective vest after six years of safeguarding our little ones. Pupils, staff, parents, and grandparents gathered to thank Tony for being our beacon of safety on the zebra crossing. As we bid farewell to our crossing warden extraordinaire, we send Tony off with a heartfelt "thank you" for everything and a truckload of well wishes for his future adventures. Well done Tony.

A picture speaks a thousand words! Thank you Kate.
Thank you Kate (Kate Klimchuk our school photographer) for taking such fantastic photographs of our pupils. Kate has managed to capture the innocence of youth in our pupils, showing their concentration while learning but overall the fun in their faces as the form friendship some of which may last a lifetime! For more look here.
Our First Confessions took place on Tuesday, 5th March, 2024.

Keeping us all safe .....
We were delighted to have our wonderful crossing warden, Tony with us for the last number of years. Tony regularly spoke to the girls and boys and taught them all about the rules of crossing. Thank you Tony. Friday morning, 8th March, is Tony's last day on the job. Tony has been an invaluable member of our school community and will be greatly missed by us all.
Well done girls
