REHAB RECYCLE Mr. Austin Gethings spoke to the pupils about the importance of recycling in Ireland. We participated in a two day project where the boys brought small broken electrical items to the school for recycling. In return, Rehab donated a computer to the school. Many thanks to all who supported.
OPEN DAY was a huge success again this year. Many thanks to all who worked so hard including Mrs. Lynch, Ronan Maguire, Special Needs Assistants and teaching staff. We are grateful for the support of so many parents and pupils who came to the school on March 25th. A special word of gratitude for the Parents' Association and the boys in Rang VI for their hard work on the day. Special thanks also to Jackie Comerford and Siobhan Carrigg for the great work on the flower beds-at the front of the school. The Minister for Education & Science, Mary Hanafin, thoroughly enjoyed her visit.
