🙏 Annual School Mass

A few moments from our annual whole-school Mass, held last week in Salthill Church.

The Mass included an opening address from our Head Girl, Faridat Elias, words from our principal Dr Kinsella, readings and offertory, music from our school choir and traditional music group, and contributions from students and staff throughout.

A sincere thank you to our Religion teachers, the musical coordinators Ms O’Boyle, Ms O'Hanlon and Ms Clarke, Ms Boyle and the trad group, and everyone who helped organise and take part in the Mass.

We would also like to thank Fr Michael McLoughlin, PP of Salthill, for welcoming our school community. 💜

Taking care of ourselves starts with taking responsibility! 🎈✨

Last week in Mrs. Kennedy’s SPHE class, Class 4.1 kicked off a fun and hands-on lesson in self-care and personal responsibility. Each student has been given their very own balloon to keep safe, whole, and intact all week long! 🎈🙌

It’s a simple challenge with a big message: protecting what’s important requires daily attention, effort, and care—just like looking after ourselves! 💙
