Well done to our 1st & 2nd Year Handball teams who travelled to Roscommon last week for the Annual One Wall Handball Tournament. Our 2nd Year students Cormac, Ethan, Sean & Patrick who were finalists last year, won all their games and defeated another Dunmore side in the finals. Our girls won the plate competition & our other boys team were runner-up in the plate. It was a really enjoyable tournament. Thanks to Roscommon Convent for hosting the event
After a fabulous few days in Italy, we are all aboard for our return trip. We hope to be back in Dunmore around 23:30 – 23:45.
Day 3 of the TY tour brought us to Gardaland, where we had an adrenaline filled day of rollercoasters, laughs and fun. The students (and teachers) thoroughly enjoyed the day here, and we even managed to squeeze in some shopping on the trip home.
Day 2 of our trip brought us to the beautiful city of Venice, where we had a guided walking tour of the city streets, followed by a tour of a glass factory and then some time for retail therapy. An enjoyable day made even better by lovely weather. Today, we are off for a fun day of rollercoasters at Gardaland, an amusement park with 32 various rides for the students (and the teachers) to enjoy!

Well done to our chess players who travelled to Roscrea last week to take part in the All Ireland Secondary School ChessZ competition. All our teams played very well and a great day was had by all who took part. Special congrats to Mairead Glynn who came second in the All Ireland Chess Final.
On Thursday 2nd May, the LCA 6th Yr class and Ms. Scarry were given a very informative talk by Mary and Geraldine from the Dunmore Conference. The two ladies spoke about the work that the local St. Vincent de Paul Society does, how they fundraise and how someone could volunteer to join. The talk took place as part of a key assignment for Vocational Preparation and Guidance subject in the LCA programme.
Some of our TY traveled to Galway to carry out a beach study during the week. Well done to all involved.
