CONFIRMATION – Congratulations to the children in 6th Class who received their Confirmation last Saturday. Thanks to Ms. Hayden for all her work in making it a very special day for her class. There were great compliments about how the children conducted themselves and how much they contributed to the ceremony. Well done to all concerned! Choir– Well done to the musicians, Mrs. Browne and her choir for adding so much to the occasion. The children looked very well in their school tracksuits and the singing was excellent. Some of the boys were rushing off to play a soccer match afterwards and we very much appreciate that they were present to support 6th class. Church – The church looked beautiful on the day. Well done to Ms. Hayden and her ‘team’ of helpers who put in many hours of preparation.
