Learning opportunities from our and Yellow Flag were brought to life yesterday when our pupils took to the polling station to select a new name for our recently refurbished courtyard which to date has been known as "The Quad".
Our Yellow Flag Committee gave our School Community 5 options:
*The Hub
*The Beehive
*The Honeycomb
* The Chill Zone
* The Quad!!
Míle Buíochas to Ms. Doody for organising the voting cards, register and ballot papers. And massive thanks to our Presiding Officer Martin and polling clerks Dylan and Mehrnoosh 👏👏
Our result will be reported once postal votes from our Board of Management are in. Watch this space!

A very special cake for some very special múinteoirí!
As a school, we were delighted to celebrate the concluding of Lily, Noreen & Killian’s ‘Droichead’ process.
The ‘Droichead’ year allowed us, as a school staff, to support and mentor the three new teachers as they set out on their teaching careers.
What a fantastic year of learning, friendships, camaraderie and fun with such kind and empathetic teachers!
We wish Ms. Doody, Ms. Nolan & Mr. Buckley all the best in their teaching careers. May they have long healthy years with the children, learning together and always having fun!
The boys took part in a basketball blitz today in UL. They performed with skill and determination and brought home the top prize for ‘Best School Spirit’. We may be a little biased, but they truly are the best group of young men!!
School Tour Part 2: Great craic at Crazy Caves
The boys loved participating in the local history project "Who am I? Who are we?"
Huge thanks to Aoife Keogh and Mary Stenson Shanahan for putting together excellent local history booklets.

Great support from all the other boys, great to see the encouragement and teamwork!

Big congratulations in order for the Abbeyfeale United FC U12B team who won the Division 4 league yesterday in dramatic fashion against a strong Ballingarry side. The game finished with a score line of 2-1 to the boys in blue.
We are very very proud of our St. Mary’s boys, pictured below, who spend every break and lunch time kicking ball, truly dedicated to their sport.
Special mention to coaches and mentors, Kevin Prendiville, Barry Murphy, Conor McCarthy and Aiden Guinane, who dedicate so much time and effort to the team, and get the best out of the boys!
Well done lads, great work and well deserved!! It’s safe to say that the future of the team is bright ⭐️🏆
