We had a huge crowd for our end of year prize-giving ceremony in the school hall. Here are a few pictures from the event. Have a great summer and see you all on August 30th.

Here are our boys of the month for June: Well done Luke, PJ, Alexander, Carson, Calum and Harley.

Here is the trailer for the film Mr Fahy’s class and some local grandparents made with Shaun Dunne and The Ark Theatre. I think you’ll be very impressed. When I get a link to the full film, I’ll pass it on. Some future Oscar winners on show here…

6th Class had their Graduation ceremony today in the school hall. Here are some pictures of the occasion. Thank you to the Parents’ Association for their great efforts in organising the event. Well done boys. Don’t be strangers. We’ll miss you all. 

After an epic battle with our friendly neighbours from East Wall our heroes won the League Final after a dramatic penalty shoot-out. What a game! What a team! And well done to East Wall as neither team deserved to lose.

Mr Fahy’s class has started filming its end of year movie. The film, directed by Pat Larkin, is about the formation of Shamrock Rovers Football Club here in Ringsend many moons ago.

Here is a little teaser of what’s in store:

It’s always nice to hear good things about our boys here in Ringsend and that is exactly what we heard last week. After our trips to Airfield I received an email from Airfield praising the boys for their manners, respect, excellent questions, charm and great attitude. The Airfield manager said that it was a rare thing to hear such praise for a group of students from her educational guides so I was delighted to hear it. This all stems from the excellent grounding they receive from their families at home and from the wonderful teachers here in St Patrick’s BNS. 

Air BnB generously sponsored a trip for every class to Airfield Farm in Dundrum where the boys got to collect eggs, feed the hens, milk the cows and see the other animals. They were then given breakfast which included the eggs they collected and the milk from the cows. All classes had a great day out.

The boys from 1st class to 4th have completed 10 weeks of yoga with their instructor Michelle Drury. The course was initially due to last for 5 lessons but we had to extend it due to its popularity. The boys loved it and we hope you like the photos of our flexible friends!
