We recently celebrated Graduation Day with our sixth year students – the class of 2013. Seize the day was the theme chosen for this year’s celebration.
Sinead Fagan and Robert Hammond – both Leaving Cert. Art students, depicted the theme very beautifully on the cover of the graduation booklet. Fr. Eddie Deeney, an SMA priest from Dromantine, outside Newry, celebrated Mass with us. Fr. Deeney had been involved with the sixth year group when they went to Dromantine for their retreat last November, and it was fitting that he was able to join with us for Monday’s celebration. A huge amount of hard work and preparation went into planning the day. Our thanks to everyone involved in any way – staff, students and parents, for making the day the fantastic celebration and success that it was. Once again, congratulations and very best wishes to the class of 2013, and the very best of luck over the next two weeks of final preparation for the exams. (Photo: Mr. O’ Mahony).
