Sports Day 2026 was a roaring success. Organised by Ms. Keogh + the children of 6th class, the children participated in numerous games, races and fun activities. We were so lucky to welcome Irish paralympian Shauna Bocquet to our sports day and talk to us all about her journey to Paris 2024 and what the future holds.

Lego League 2025
Wow, what a day we had ! After weeks of researching, planning, and building our models around the theme “Submerged”, we finally had the chance to showcase them today at ATU Galway.
We began our day with a leisurely walk on the beach, then headed into the college to set up our display and present our artwork. We proudly described our models to many visitors and had the chance to explore the incredible creations from other schools too.
One of the highlights was a guided tour of the Robotics and Automation Department — it was truly amazing! We wrapped up a fantastic day with a well-deserved ice-cream on the way home.

Bhí Seachtain na Gaeilge iontach againn. Tháinig ceoltóirí áitiúla isteach chun ceol traidisiúnta a sheinm agus a chanadh agus ghlac cuid dár scoláirí páirt ann freisin.
Bhí tráth na gceist againn i rang 3 go 6 agus bhaineamar an-taitneamh as. Ar deireadh, bhí ár Lá Glás an-mhaith le hamhráin, dánta agus damhsaí ónár scoláirí. Maith sibh go léir!
