Moving House? 
If you are moving house and your child will not be returning to St Patrick’s in the new school year, it is vital that you make contact with the class teacher or the Main Office as soon as possible as it will be necessary for you to complete a Transfer Form.   We have a large number of children on waiting lists for all classes and we would like to be able to contact these parents as soon as possible.

GAA Match
“Last Tuesday 29 April, St Patrick’s played two matches against Scoil Thomáis.    The two St Patrick’s teams swapped at half time and both played the other Scoil Thomáis’ teams.  One of our teams won and the other lost.  They were very competitive games and we all enjoyed ourselves”. By Abdullah Abbasi and Jack Doyle
