Weekly Update October 19th-October 23rd 2026

GRANDPARENTS DAY:  It was wonderful to see so many grandparents  on Grandparents' Day. The boys loved sharing their experiences of learning in a modern primary school classroom.  The boys loved sharing all their classroom, their work , their chromebooks, their interactive boards, their digital literacy skills and asking you questions. We hope that all grandparents enjoyed experiencing the modern classroom. It was fascinating for the boys when grandparents shared their  stories of growing up in Ireland during very different times and what their school experience was like. Your feedback to the boys and teachers was so warm, heartfelt and joyous. It made our day. We hope you all had as an enjoyable Grandparents' Day as we all did.
