Many thanks and congratulations to all the boys, girls and parents who took part in the parade in Mountrath at the weekend. The theme was "Irish Legends". Paddock NS entered as a walking group with the theme Grace O Malley. We had Grace, pirates, Queen Elizabeth and O'Moore's men. We even had a few pirates doing a spot of Irish dancing. Despite the cold a great day was had by all. We even won the best walking group on the day. Well done to all involved. On Thursday, the 15th March the 4th, 5th and 6th class boys participated in the FAI 5 aside soccer league in Portlaoise. Competition on the day included Kilanure, Barnashrone, Timahoe, Rushall and Newtown. Paddock entered two teams. Congratulations to our qualifying panel: Killian (Captain), Luca, Matthew, Mikey, Robbie, Cian, Oliver and Alex. Best wishes to them in the finals which take place on April 11th in Portlaoise.
Congratulations to the boys and girls of 5th and 6th classes who received their Confirmation on Saturday 10th March 2018, in Castletown Church.
Well done to Matthew, Katelyn, Charlotte, Robyn, Laoise, Kate, Luca, Alex, Sean Og, Mark, Tara, Jack, Finn, Killian, Joe and Breann. Sincere thanks to Fr. Hennessy for officiating at the ceremony and for all his help throughout the year. The Middle and Senior Room travelled to Dublin, to the RDS, to attend the Green School Expo recently. The children really enjoyed viewing all the different exhibits and brought home many new ideas for continuing in our endeavour to be a greener school. Enjoy the pictures. |
