Golf

Congratulations to John Brady who has been burning up the golf courses of Ireland during the summer . He is in great form and has figured promimently in many competitions. He won the Connacht Open U.16, came 5th in the Leinster Open U.18, was on the winning Leinster U.16 team in the Interprovincial Championships. He finished 7th in the All Ireland U.16 competition, was on the Leinster U.17 team that drew with Surrey and was in the top 25 in the Irish U.18 Open.
Remarkable achievements indeed. We wish John and the rest of the school team good luck for their Leinster Qualifing tournement in Bray on Monday next.

Cycle Against Suicide

Well done to Kevin Birney who was selected to participate in the C.A.S. Leadership Programme during the summer. He found it to be a wonderful experience and picked up many new skills as well as making new lifelong friends on the course.
Congratulations also to Ms. Ivers who once again led the charge as we reached for Ambassador Status again this year. Our representatives were presented with a plaque in Dublin recently.

Senior Rugby 2015

Cycle Against Suicide

Well done to all the students and teachers who cycled on Friday last in appalling weather conditions to raise awareness about suicide in Ireland. They joined the cycle in Clonmel and set out for Portlaoise at 10.30am in cold , wet and windy conditions. After a brief stop in Cashel for some food and water , they set off again into the worsening elements for Thurles. The 45k was slow moving and students and adults alike were struggling with the severe weather.
Arriving in Thurles to a huge welcome, much needed shelter and warmth, as well as hot food was available. It didn't take long before rumours spread that the remainder of the days cycle was to be cancelled. What a relief all round. But still a great event and one that serves a great purpose.

Jason O'Neill, Jack Crean, James Crean, Stephen Gibbins, Shane Flood, James Pierce, Luke Moloney, Kevin Harte, Nathan Mullally, Nigel Donohue, Ross Long, Conor Fenon, Sean Gayer, Luke Lambert, David Tormey, Kevin Birney, Ms. Ivers, Mrs. Scallan and Mr. Ahearne.
