A warm welcome to our new Junior Infants. We wish Jack, Molly, James, Fiadh, Shay, Noah, Jack C., Jake, Sarah, Elliot, Cian, Orla and Amelia many happy years of fun and learning in Sliabh a’ Mhadra. We would like to extend a special welcome to the new families that have joined our school this year.
We were delighted to welcome the Ballyduff County Minor Hurling Champions 2021 and their management team to our school recently.
These boys played their hearts out on County Final Day and we are very proud of them. The county final was played at Austin Stack Park, Tralee on 12th Sept. and they defeated St. Brendan’s, Ardfert on a score line of 0.23 to 0.10. The backroom team was John Hennessy. Mikey Boyle, Padraig Harrington and William Quinlan.
Mikey Boyle spoke about the commitment and dedication of his team and how proud he was of them. Teacher, Maurice O’ Connor, spoke eloquently about the superb performance of the team in the final and of the pride of parish which the team had instilled in the people of Ballyduff.
It was our pleasure to welcome back 8 of our former pupils who were part of the winning team: Seán O’ Sullivan, Luke Kennelly, Jack Enright, Adam Segal, Tommy O’Grady, Evan Boyle, Adam Lynch and Aodhán Curley.
Baile Dubh Abú!
The class of 2021 graduated on the 22nd of June. The ceremony was held in the school yard and was attended by classes 1st to 6th. Unfortunately, due to covid, parents could not be present however the ceremony was videod for them.
Thank you to Fr. Brendan for celebrating a lovely mass. 6th class performed a selection of songs and tin whistle tunes and shared their memories of their 8 years in primary school. Presentations were made to each student on behalf of the School and the Parents’ Association and they each received a gorgeous cupcake which was specially made by Stella Fealy for the occasion.
We are confident these great young people are ready to face the challenges of the next chapter in their education. We wish them the very best of luck!
