Tickets are going fast for our Musical ‘Thank You For the Music’  March 20th-24th. There are some tickets still available at break and lunchtime.  The Parents Association will sell refreshments before the show and during the interval. We would appreciate if you could bring cash and small change to facilitate quick payment.

To raise funds we are collecting low value coins: 1, 2 and 5 cents. You can drop your small change at the refreshment stand during the Musical.

Thank you for your support.

Our Musical is back!  It is an Abba celebration called ‘Thank You For The Music’.

PCS participated in the Swords Invitational Cross Country relays at St Comchiles GAA grounds on Thursday 24th Feb. 49 students travelled making up 11 relay teams (4 per team) and 5 amazing/helpful supporters. Each team member had to run 640m, which was neither a sprint nor a jog, but was very tough on quite a hilly course. There were 8 races in total, with about 8-10 teams in each race. Portmarnock came away with an amazing medal haul of 6 team medals!!!:

Gold – Senior Girls and Senior Boys

Silver – 3rd/4th year boys

Bronze – 3rd/4th year girls, 3rd/4th year boys and 2nd year boys

Congratulations to all our runners and our supporters out there. You did an amazing job. Looking forward to our next athletics outing which should be the North Leinster Schools Track and Field Championships at the end of April. 

Keeping up the training!!!

Please here for  the PowerPoint for the Incoming First Year information evening. We apologise to those parents who couldn’t get into the Zoom.  We didn’t realise it was limited to 100. We will be  holding another Parents Evening in the school during September and many of the major points of information, from the February 2nd Zoom meeting will be revisited. In the meantime all of the main points covered can be viewed in the Powerpoint.

Congratulations to Ms. Orla Coleman on her appointment as Acting Deputy Principal. Ms Coleman will be supporting the TY and Fifth Year Students. We look forward to working with Ms. Coleman and supporting her in her new role.

Many thanks to the mentors and coaches who give up their time to train at lunchtimes and organise their teams. Thanks also to Ms Fallon for coordinating. A mid-season report can be found here (PDF)
