Bin it, don’t ditch it! 🚮
Our Green Schools Committee are taking action to tackle litter and keep our school looking its best 🌱
They’re launching a Hallway Clean-Up Challenge, where each year group can earn points for keeping their areas, corridors and locker spaces clean and tidy. The cleaner the space, the more points you earn… and there’s a treat for the winning year group 👀
Keep an eye on the school TV screens for full details on how the challenge works and to check the weekly rankings.
Let’s all do our part — every small action makes a big difference 💚![Wear Red Day - Show Racism the Red Card - Friday 20th March FRIDAY IS WEAR RED DAY! Dominican...]()

A lovely day of celebration at our TY & Active Retirement Graduation Party 🎉
Over the past number of months, our TY students were partnered with members of the Galway Active Retirement Association as part of an intergenerational programme. The girls helped the retirees with technology skills, while also gaining so much from their life experience, stories and wisdom.
The graduation party last month was a wonderful way to celebrate the friendships formed and the learning shared along the way. A fantastic experience for everyone involved![Our TY students recently visited Fidelity Investments as part of the CodePlus programme, which...]()
Our TY students recently visited Fidelity Investments as part of the CodePlus programme, which encourages more girls to explore careers in computer science and STEM 💻
CodePlus is facilitated by Sally McHugh and funded by Science Foundation Ireland. The programme is delivered by University of Galway to help address the gender gap in the tech industry.
During their visit, the girls met graduates from the Fidelity graduate programme LEAP, learned about career pathways in STEM, and took part in team-building activities with the graduates.
A big thank you to Sally McHugh and the team at Fidelity Investments for hosting such an engaging and inspiring visit for our TY students 🚀

Our students in Room 3 have been busy over the past few weeks designing, planning and building their very own vegetable patch 🌱
From preparing the space to planting a variety of vegetables, the project has been a wonderful opportunity for teamwork, creativity and getting hands-on outdoors. A big thank you to the SNAs and teachers who helped and supported the students along the way.
Now the hard work is done and the vegetables are planted — we’re all looking forward to seeing what grows in the weeks and months ahead! 🥕🥬🌼![Comhghairdeas lenár scoláirí ar éirigh leo pas le gradam a bhaint amach sa scrúdú ardleibhéil...]()

A huge well done to our Minor Cross Country team who travelled to Belfast at the weekend to take part in the All Ireland Cross Country Final. The girls performed brilliantly and finished 9th overall — a fantastic achievement at such a competitive event .
Every runner achieved a PB, a real testament to the dedication and hard work they’ve put into training this year. We are incredibly proud of this talented 1st Year team.
To top off an already great day, the girls even got a surprise pep talk from Boyzone's Shane Lynch and a member of Phats & Small.
A big thank you to Ms Steede Duffy for accompanying the team. And to both Ms. Steede Duffy and Ms. Creaven for all the training and preparation. Thanks also to the parents who travelled and supported the team on the day.
Well done everyone — we are very proud of you!

Legend to Life – RTÉ This Is Art! Group Category Winners
A huge congratulations to our 2nd Year Art students and their teacher, Ms. Gilligan, on their fantastic success in the RTÉ 'This Is Art!' competition.
The girls won the Group Category for their stunning entry Legend to Life — a creative collection of masks inspired by Irish and international mythological figures. Bringing mythology and nature together, their work explores themes of transformation, identity and the powerful connection between story and our natural world. The masks were created using recycled and reused materials.
We are incredibly proud of their creativity, collaboration and hard work.

A look back at last weeks Milk & Cookie Day in aid of HopeSpace! 🍪🥛
A huge well done to Ms. Callanan’s 5th Year LCVP class who organised and ran the event so brilliantly. From planning and promotion to serving on the day, the girls showed fantastic teamwork and initiative.
Most importantly, all funds raised will go towards supporting children and young people who are grieving the loss of someone they love @hopespacegalway
Thank you to everyone who supported such a worthwhile cause 💛
