Sean Drummond left CBC in 2013 and was a beloved pupil during his time here, On the 23rd of March this year Sean's world changed dramatically, when he was in an accident and had a traumatic brain injury. Below is an invitation to a fundraiser which has been set up in his name.

Most of those who've met Sean Drummond in any walk of life will know him as a jack of all trades and master of most. Be it rising to the top of the class in academics, winning this year's player of the year with his beloved Cuala Senior Football team or throwing dodgy dance moves every Saturday night, Sean has been at the very core of our friend group for as long as we can remember.

On the 23rd March this year Sean's world changed dramatically, when he was in an accident and had a traumatic brain injury. He has fought through countless surgeries and challenges, and in July he was transferred to the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability in London. Sean has started a programme of rehabilitation. He will need further rehabilitation courses and may need specialist equipment as he tries to recover from his injuries.

Sean is someone who rises to the challenge at every occasion and delivers time and time again. This time we're all rallying around him as he takes on his biggest challenge yet, and we need your support to help get him there.

On the 21st September we're running a duo of events to celebrate Sean and everything we love about him. The first, is a Tag Rugby event hosted in Cuala GAA, Dalkey. The second, is a night of singing and dancing in the Royal Marine Hotel in Dun Laoghaire.
Team tickets for the tag event are now available at Student and Adult levels, this admits a team of 10 people. Evening tickets are also available although they're sold on an individual basis.

Over the coming weeks we look forward to sharing more details about Sean, the event, acts, prizes, auctions, entertainment and the impact we're going to have on all those close to him.

We'd hugely appreciate any support that can be offered in the form of prizes or donations; this can be achieved through contacting the owner of this page, donating to the GoFundMe page below, or at sean4drummond@gmail.com

Viewing Leaving Cert. Exam Scripts in CBC 2019

Congratulations on receiving your Leaving Cert. results. They mark the culmination of six years of hard work. You will receive the first round of third level offers from the CAO on Thursday and best of luck with those.

If you decide that you want to have a look at any of your exam scripts, you can do so, regardless of the reason, whether you are unhappy with a result, looking to see if you might appeal or just because you are curious about the paper. The process this year is somewhat different from previous years, so here are a few things to bear in mind:

In order to register to view your scripts, you must do so through the State Exam Commission website student portal https://www.examinations.ie/candidate-portal/.
You will have received the login details before the exams in June, but if you have lost those details or you did not register at the time, contact the school office and they will be able to provide you will your information.
There is no charge to view a script.
If you wish to see one of your scripts, you must register that request online before 5pm this Friday, the 16th.
On Saturday, you will receive an email from Mr. O’Neill in CBC who is in charge of organising the viewing process. This email will confirm the exam papers you have asked to see and allocate you one of three viewing sessions.
The viewing sessions will place in CBC on Tuesday (5pm to 8pm) and Wednesday (9am to 12pm and 2pm to 5pm) next week.
Some exam papers will only be available to view online through the SEC: maths, physics, biology, chemistry and politics. There will not be physical copies of these papers to view in the school.
During the script viewing, you can bring in a phone, tablet or camera if you wish to make a copy of the paper.
You can be accompanied by someone else to view the paper with you, but you must be present to view the papers. Your papers will not be released to anyone else.

As the viewing sessions take place either before teaching staff return to work (Tuesday) or are during staff meetings (Wednesday), the school will not be facilitating requests for teachers to be present during viewing. Please do not contact the school office with these requests as they will not be able to help. If you wish to contact a member of staff privately to ask them to be present that is fine.
If you have any questions about the process, please contact cbcscriptviewing@gmail.com
