TY Gaisce Hike: As part of their Gaisce Adventure Journey, students completed a 14km hike last Monday along the Blessington Greenway. The route was mostly flat with some hills, and the group stopped along the way to enjoy a picnic and take in the views of the lakes and surrounding hills. Conditions were moderate, with some light drizzle at times, but this did not affect the overall experience. This hike marks an important step in their Adventure Journey, with their overnight trip planned for Carlingford in April. Well done to all the students for their positive attitude and good behaviour, and to the accompanying teachers for their support
throughout the day.
U19 Ladies Soccer Success: A huge congratulations to our U19 Ladies soccer team, who were crowned Division 2 Dublin West Metro Champions after an impressive 9-3 victory over Kishoge CC. It was a fantastic day for our school, with players from every year group contributing and showing great teamwork, commitment and school spirit throughout the game. Sadhbh Harris (1st Year) and Eve Clarke (5th Year) each scored four goals, with Reka Kiss Kalo (5th Year) adding another to complete the tally. This excellent group of players has represented the school exceptionally well over the past few months, and we are very proud of their achievements. A special thank you to Ms Collins for her work with the team throughout the campaign, and to Ms McCormack for her support and for joining us on the day of the final. We now look forward to the Leinster Quarter Final in a few weeks' time and wish the team the very best.

TY Trip to Poland: Students had a very enjoyable and memorable trip to Poland, where they took part in a range of educational and cultural activities. They visited Auschwitz, which was a very important and moving experience, and also explored the Salt Mines. The group spent time discovering Krakow city and its Old Town, taking in the history and atmosphere. They also visited Schindler's Factory and had the opportunity to hear from a survivor, which was a particularly meaningful part of the trip. In the evenings, students relaxed and had fun together, going bowling and visiting Pixel Planet. Thank you to our students for their excellent representation of our school and all the teachers who accompanied them.

CBS Swap Shop: Last Tuesday evening, we were delighted to host the very first Colaiste Phadraig Uniform Swap Shop, a fantastic initiative focused on sustainability, community spirit, and supporting families within our school. The event proved to be a wonderful success and we would like to extend our sincere thanks to the many parents who supported the initiative.
Families generously donated pre-loved school uniforms, helping to give these items a second life while also reducing waste. Parents also came along on the evening to browse the available uniforms, swap items, or take pieces that could be reused by their families. It was wonderful to see such a positive response and a real sense of community as parents supported one another while also contributing to a more sustainable approach to school uniforms.
A special word of thanks must go to our hardworking Transition Year students Alex Morley, Charlie Finnerty and Kevin Sunoj. In the lead-up to the event, they dedicated their time to carefully sorting, organising and folding the donated uniforms, ensuring everything was ready for the evening. Their effort and enthusiasm played an important role in making the event run smoothly.
We would also like to express our heartfelt thanks to Ms. Farrell and the Parents' Association for their invaluable support in organising and hosting the Swap Shop. Their commitment to initiatives that benefit both our students and the wider school community is greatly appreciated.
Thank you as well to the parents who swapped clothing items or made cash donations on the night.
Soccer: Our Senior team booked their place in the final play-off round of the Dublin Metropolitan League with a dramatic 2-1 victory, after extra time, against St. Fintan's CS last Monday. After a tense and scoreless contest for much of the match, Matthew McEvoy broke the deadlock with a goal in the 80th minute. St. McDara's responded quickly, however, scoring a late equaliser to force the game into extra time. In a thrilling finish, Jack Andrews proved to be the hero, scoring the decisive goal in the second period of extra time to seal a memorable win.
They will now face St. Benildus College, Stillorgan, where another exciting contest awaits.
Hurling: Our 1st yr hurling team defeated Colaiste Cois Life 4-10 to 2-08 last Wednesday, to advance to the Dublin League semi-finals. Lucan topped their three-team group, having also beaten Clonkeen College in great style last week. The team hurled beautifully throughout the game, showing great skill, teamwork and determination from start to finish. Their sharp passing, string tackling, and excellent movement helped them control large periods of a high quality match.
Eoghan Ware in the half-forward line was once again in outstanding form, finishing the game with an impressive tally of 0-7. His accuracy from both play and placed balls kept the scoreboard ticking over and proved a major factor in the team's strong overall performance. Full forward Rhys Reilly added a fine goal with a clinical finish from close range. Will Keane and Eoin McKenna also scored goals.
