It was so wonderful to celebrate our Annual Opening School Mass on Wednesday the 4th of October. The CBC school community gathered together in St. Patrick's Church to take time and reflect on the year ahead. Our musician's played some wonderful music on the organ and the violin while the school choir sang a rang of beautiful hymns and songs. Well done to all involved.

Certa Bonum Certamen  It was a momentous day as we gathered together to celebrate the achievements of our 6th-year students at their graduation mass. The air was filled with a sense of excitement and pride as families and teachers joined in this special occasion. The students, adorned in their black jumpers, shirts and ties, stood tall, symbolising the culmination of years of hard work and dedication. The mass was a beautiful reflection of their journey, where prayers were offered for their continued success and guidance in the future. Acknowledging the students' accomplishments, growth, and resilience. It was a time to honor their achievements and the unwavering support of their families and teachers who had nurtured them throughout their educational journey.

If you would like to contribute to our Clothes Drive, please drop your donation to our collection point on Wednesday in the CBC lower car-park. We encourage you to use this opportunity as a possible "Spring Cleanout" for households.

Many thanks, The CBC Monkstown Student Council (in conjunction with The Green Schools Committee)   The CBC sailing team qualified back in March to compete at the Irish Schools Team Racing Association (ISTRA), Nationals April 29 & 30th in the Royal St George YC. The qualifier back in March included 18 schools from Leinster competing to finish top 6 to qualify for the nationals in their province. Team racing format sailing is growing massively in schools in Ireland and involves a team 6 sailors in 3 boats racing against another team in round robin style format with a knock out stage at the end. The Team racing format is very popular in the 3rd level colleges too. CBC Monkstown had 1 team at the nationals which was hosted in the Royal St George YC over the weekend. This is the first time the school had competed in this and it was an amazing achievement for them to qualify in their first year competing! The Nationals consisted of schools from all over Ireland who were battling over the weekend in very tricky conditions due to shifty winds. Our team raced 7 races overall and won 4 which was excellent. It meant they were 3rd in their group & 5th overall. A fantastic achievement for our first season. A lot of fun was had and they enjoyed the social side of meeting new friends and dined in the dining room in the club dressed in their blazers on Saturday night. 2LD have been busy in their CSPE class. They have created a video explaining the importance of biodiversity and how seed bombs can help. Check out their great work in the youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Pg2MpjVSzLU
Some of our TY’s travelled to Berlin over the Easter holidays. They had a great city break taking in the sights and walking over 100,000 steps! A big thanks to Ms. Whelan, Ms. O'Connor, Mr. Acres & Ms. Matthews who accompanied them. |
