World Book Week got off to a brilliant start today as Fifth and Sixth Year students welcomed celebrated author Donal Ryan to the school. Speaking to the group about his fantastic novel, ‘The Spinning Heart’, which students are studying as part of their comparative course, Donal offered many interesting insights into the unique chorus of voices that reside in the text. The session also included questions from the floor, a reading of poetry and an invaluable insight into the world of a writer. Donal’s humour and honesty was well received and we are extremely grateful to him for such an enjoyable morning and for so generously giving up his time to visit us. 

We are looking forward to meeting our students and parents of Transition Year at the Transition Year Parent Teacher Student Meeting, which will be held on this coming Tuesday 2nd March 4:15PM- 6:00PM. This is a valuable opportunity to discuss your child's progress to date.
