On the 2nd March the pupils and staff celebrated World Book day. We dressed up as our most loved characters from our favourite books. Can you spot some familiar faces below?

Our student council also arranged the most delicious cake sale to fundraise for the sports facilities in our new school. They raised an outstanding €2, 080 with more money still coming in.

Comhghairdeas and well done to all involved.
