CHOIR: This is the time of year when we ask children to “give something back” and make themselves available to support their fellow pupils through participation in the school choir. We have three ceremonies over the coming months (see below) and we ask parents to commit that their children will attend on those dates. The forms went home yesterday (Monday).
First Penance: Tuesday, March 14th @ 7 pm.
Confirmation: Thursday, April 6th @ 2 pm.

ZIM DAY: Well done to everyone for a fantastic day on Friday 17th. Ms. Cotter would like to thank children, staff, parents, grandparents and friends for their generosity and hard work.
