We would like to extend our deepest thanks to AbbVie and Volunteer Ireland for the incredible work they have done in giving our school a complete makeover during their 'Week of Possibilities" project. The transformation is truly beyond anything we could have imagined — the school looks absolutely amazing. Thank you for thinking of our children, their families, and our dedicated staff. Your generosity and hard work have brought a fresh energy to our school that will give everyone a real boost when we return for Summer Camp and after the summer holidays. The volunteers from AbbVie and Terri O'Brien and her crew from Volunteer Ireland went above and beyond in every way — working tirelessly, with enthusiasm and kindness, and always putting the needs of our school and our children first. We are so grateful for everything they have done. From all of us here at St. Brid’s, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

It was with great sadness that we said goodbye to Mary this week as she begins her well-earned retirement. Mary has been an integral part of life at St Brid’s for many years, dedicating herself wholeheartedly to the education and well-being of our pupils. Her tireless efforts to support our children in reaching their full potential have made a lasting impact. Mary has been a true source of wisdom and support to her colleagues, always willing to go above and beyond in everything she did. We will all miss her dearly — both professionally and personally. Mary, thank you for everything. We wish you every happiness and good health in your retirement!'

On Friday January 31st the whole school got together in the hall to make St. Brigid’s crosses, enjoy some music and celebrate our Saint’s Day! We all had fun and some beautiful crosses were made. Thanks to everyone for coming along and giving the pupils a lovely morning.

We were delighted to get new classroom furniture delivered at the end of January. Five of our classes got new workstations and chairs for each of their pupils. The classrooms look great and the pupils love them too! Thanks to G. Morgan & Sons Furniture for their help.
