School closed today 28th February due to Red Weather Alert system in place across Dublin.
Welcome back to all our staff and students. We hope that everyone had a refreshing and safe February Mid Term Break.
Parents Association Annual Quiz
The Annual Fun Quiz took place on Thursday the 8th February in St Jude’s Clubhouse. It was a really enjoyable evening and we would like to thank the Parents Association for their continued organisation of this event.
Ski Trip
The 4th / 5th Year Ski Tour took place in Andorra during the mid term break. It was a hugely succesful trip. Students had the time of their lives and it was really impressive how quickly they learnt to ski. The behaviour of our students was also impeccable. We would like to sincerely thank the Teachers who organised and travelled on the tour. They take on a huge responsibility in their week off and all their efforts are greatly appreciated.
ETB Festival of Music
This will take place on the 28th February in the National Concert Hall at 730pm. Aaron Meehan in 5th Year will represent the school with an individual performance and our school choir will also be performing seperately. Tickets are still available for the event and cost €10.
