Coláiste Phobal's students mark Kindness Week

Kindness Week took place last week in Coláiste Phobal, starting with the fundraiser Fun Run which was a great success.

The Kindness Committee, coordinated by Ms Connolly-Hogan put together a massive programme of events across all year groups including Hyrox, a Street Dancing workshop, 1 st year Walk and Talk trip, magician Conor Breen, the Shona Project, and visits from past pupils Luke Fitzgerald, Jack Keeshan and Edward Simmons. Many thanks for all the events and the atmosphere created as a result lifted all.

The talent show on Thursday night last was a wonderful showcase of all the talent present in our school community. 29 different acts went on stage.  Dancing, gymnastics, musical recitals, solo and group singing performances were on show for two and a half hours. The variety and standard was incredible.

Many thanks to Mr Maher, Mr Murphy and the team of teachers who assisted on the night. And last but certainly not least, a massive congratulations to our senior hurlers and their management team of Mr Smyth and Mr Sheedy. The team emerged victorious from a very tight game and were totally deserving of the victory.

They have worked extremely hard all year and now have the winning medals. Thanks also to Mr Slattery, Mr Pollard and Mr Delaney for their assistance with the team on the day.

This is a huge achievement for the school and we look forward to seeing how this team progresses next year.
