Christmas Cards
It’s nice to send some positive news with 240 Christmas cards having being sent to both the Children’s Ward, in Portlaoise Hospital and the “Special Care- End of Life” rooms, in Tullamore Hospital.

Hygiene Bank
Many thanks to all who have contributed to the “Hygiene bank “. It’s a really worthy cause where these products are distributed to Woman’s Aid shelters, direct provision centres, homeless charities etc. It’s a sobering statement that all some people want for Christmas is to be clean. It’s a hopeful statement that we as a school community chose to do something about it. Thank you to Abi, Sarah, Jessica and Tadhg from TY for helping co-ordinate it. Thanks to Oisín who helped on the morning. May all of us stay safe, brave and kind this Christmastide.
