Well done to our Senior Debating Team - Remi, Frea, Cathal and Ethan who participated in Round 2 of the KCETB Schools Debating Competition against @abbeycc_wd this morning.
Well done guys! 👏
Ms. Bowe's 1st & 2nd year students swapped the classroom for the Home Ec Room today and got creative making some tasty Easter Rice Krispie buns! A lovely break from the books. Big thanks to Ms Bowe for organising! #lifeskills
A big thank you to Sergeant Conor Egan from Carlow Community Policing Unit who delivered a very informative talk to Junior Cycle students this morning about online safety and social media platforms. He spoke about the importance of safeguarding personal information and also touched on the legalities including Coco's Law. Much food for thought for our students who find themselves ensconced in a digital world.

One of our talented students, Michael in 2nd Year has brought Wallace & Gromit to life with an incredible Scratch animation! 🎬☕ His creative storyline features a Turbo Tea-Maker—a whacky invention that, in true Wallace & Gromit style, doesn’t quite go to plan! A fantastic display of coding, animation, and storytelling—well done! 👏🎉 @kcetb #CodingInAction #Scratch #animation
We wish to thank our outgoing Chief Executive, Eileen Curtis, for celebrating with us in presenting our TY students with their JCPA certificates yesterday afternoon. A major milestone for our TY students.
This was followed by a presentation made to Eileen by members of our Student Council to mark her retirement after 40 years of service. She was presented with a beautifully commissioned piece created by our very talented Woodwork and Engineering Departments and a bouquet of flowers. Staff and students also enjoyed some delicious cake. We wish Eileen a happy and healthy retirement and thank her most sincerely for the support, guidance and leadership she has given to our school over the years.
