Trip to Zimmer Biomet
Our first year students were lucky enough to have a site visit to Zimmer Biomet here in Shannon this week. It was arranged as part of their science course. We are very grateful to Zimmer Biomet for taking us in for a very informative visit and are delighted to continue our link to this company that has many past pupils and parents associated with it. They were also a very popular stand at our recent careers fair so our thanks go out to them again.
School Improvement Plan - Thank you parents!
A big thank you to the parents who came to our workshop on our School Improvement Plan 2019 -2022. We really appreciate their interest and invaluable insights into planning St Patrick’s Comprehensive School's future.
1st year Art Exhibition
We are delighted to announce an exhibition of art by some of our talented first year students. It’s an exhibition of self portraits based on different artists techniques/principles throughout art history. Students did a lot of research and preparation before they approached their final piece.They gave careful consideration to light and dark which is an intrinsic element to any portrait. They then spent a lot of time on getting their work just right so that it gave a true representation of themselves while paying homage to their chosen artist. We hope that you will take the time to check them out from May 13th. Our thanks to Shannon Library.
Generous Donation
A massive thank you to CHC for their generous donation to the SEN department in the school. We are truly grateful. We will be using the funds to purchase elephant beanbags, weighted blankets and punch bags and mitts. Thank you!
The Comp Careers Fair 2019
A massive thank you to all those who made The Comp Careers Fair a resounding success. We were blown away by the sheer volume of people in attendance. Our exhibitors were a fantastic to resource to people and proved to be a fountain of knowledge for those looking into options for their future. We hope to continue on this success and plans are already underfoot for the next careers fair.
