I spoke to Sarah today and asked her what her secret was. She said she worked hard, consistently presented her work and most importantly she set boundaries for herself, to spend time with her friends and spend time on her passions, playing traditional music and competing in the fleadh. He described the excitement in the Borris Road school on Friday morning, August 23. "I had the great privilege to meet the Leaving Certificate Class from 2024 as they arrived to Scoil Chríost Rí to receive their results. The corridors were bustling with life and joy as at the same time we were welcoming in our First Years on the complete opposite end of their journey in our fantastic school. "Although I was not here for the journey of our Leaving Certificate graduates, it filled me with immense pride to see the well-rounded and successful young women that are produced here during their time with us in Scoil Chríost Rí. "A massive congratulations to all students. Their results were truly superb.
"We were so proud of our equally amazing Leaving Certificate Applied Class, with two of our students, Erin Carroll O'Reilly and Love Joy Mkandawire achieving the maximum Distinction and many more students achieving merits. "A special thank you and congratulations to all their hard-working teachers and Year Head, Ms Julie Guinan and Leaving Certificate Applied coordinator, Ms Breda Butler,' Mr Smyth said.
