Proclamation Day 2016

On the 16th of March, all of the children from the junior and senior school, parents, guardians, visitors and staff gathered at the front of the school before 12 p.m. At 12 p.m. both schools raised the Irish flag and the Proclamation was read out. Then everyone sang Amhrán na bhFiann beautifully. Boys and girls from both the junior and senior school then read a new Proclamation for the Future, which they had composed. All parents, visitors and staff then watched as each class performed dances and songs in the school yard. Top class entertainment was provided. The Irish dancers also gave us a great exhibition of Irish dancing. There was an excellent display of memorabilia from 1916 on display in the hall. Well done to all and thanks to all the parents, guardians and visitors for showing their support on a proud day for our school

St. Brigid’s Penultimate Football Match

The school football team played their penultimate game of league in Balbriggian yesterday. The team played Balscadden N.S. and they played very well considering it was only their second match. Klaudia gave a star performance in goals as she saved lots of shots on goal. All the defenders played very well and made some very good interceptions, tackles and blocks. Natasha and Cody played very well in midfield making some excellent passes to the forwards. Some girls were very unlucky not to score as their shots skimmed wide on a few occasions. A highlight of the first half would be a wonderful goal scored by Mew and a highlight from the second half would include a well -struck point by Georgia. Well done to all the girls. They showed great team spirit.
