We have over 50 savers currently but would love to have more. If you are interested in saving with us please let us know and we can give you a form to join. Remember a small amount over time makes all the difference.

First Friday Mass
The school community gathered today for First Friday Mass with Father Kane and Deacon David. Thank you to our family and friends who joined us this morning.
Well done to those pupils who participated in the mass by reading, serving, offertory and bidding prayers.
End of Month Assembly
The whole school gathered after Mass this morning for our end of month assembly where we summarise all of our achievements, visitors and successes. Our assembly was a busy one with lots of information shared so we hope the boys and girls have shared with you some of the things said.
This mornings assembly was a great way to introduce most of our new House Captains who are in office from now until June. All pupils responded well to their new role and spoke with confidence in front of the whole school so we are very proud of them all.
Well done to those pupils who received awards today from their teacher for Maths, Writer or Artist of the Month. Keep up the great work everyone.
