Visit from Liam Foley

We were delighted to be joined by Liam Foley during our assembly on Friday this week. Liam won two gold medals for the Irish Down's Syndrome Team in the Special Olympics this year for Athletics. We're all so proud of him and a big thank you for spending the time to come and see us in St. Nicholas.

School Values 

As you may remember from last year, we began to recognise the modelling of the school's four core values (Trust, Hope, Respect and Care) by the students in our school. We kicked off our first assembly by continuing that tradition for the 23/24 school year with our first round of certificates. Congratulations to the children and keep up the good work!

Off to a Winning Start!

The girls team for 2023/2024 had a very successful first match of the year, playing against St. Joseph's PS in Navan in the first round of the Cumann na mBunscoil. They can be very proud of their 21 point winning margin. A big well done to the team and their coaches. Their next match is against Gaelscoil an Bhradáin Feasa in Longwood on Wednesday 20th September.
