Late Late Toy Show Goodie Bags

First Year Business Studies students decided to set up a mini company which created and sold a Late Late Toy Show Goodie Bag. They also included a permission slip to stay up late – which is for one night only!.
All bags sold out very quickly due to the attractive display and competitive price.
Ms O Keeffe is very proud of the quick thinking students: Katie Wilford, Colleen Whelan, Julia Jurczak, Shauna Gaynor and Saoirse Ryan. Well done young entrepreneurs.

TY Movie Award

In March of this year, a group of our then TY Students worked with the Young Irish Film Makers over 3 days to write, direct and edit their own short film.

Well done to the 8 students involved for their creativity and excellent acting skills – Sarah Jane Bourke, Michael T Collins, Aidan Maher, John O’Meara, Michael McKibbin, Evan Quigley, Seamus McKenzie Cleary & Maciej Andrzej Lis.
