To All Our Graduating Boys and Parents who finish their time in St. Patrick's B.N.S. this Wednesday:
A special note of congratulations and thanks to our graduation classes of 2020. For the past 6 years( 7 for some), because of these 43 young men's dedication, talents, personalities, successes and challenges; St. Patrick's B.N.S. has been made even more a special place to learn, work and grow for so many of these boys, their parents and their teachers. The Parents Group has grown from strength to strength and been very well supported by these parents. Thank you for your time and care. Ms. Murphy, Mr. Mullins and the boys teachers are preparing a Video Graduation this Tuesday for each class and maybe a little surprise on Wednesday.
Mr. Mullins and Mr. M. O' Mahony put their vip contacts and video editing skills to good use to create the heartfelt, memorable and special videos above for our Graduation Class of 2020. We hope you enjoy them!
We will be having a special graduation ceremony when the opportunity arises.
But for now, Boys and Parents: We are so proud of each and everyone one of you. Well done all!
Boys you have so many special memories and learning from St. Patrick's to help you on the road ahead. We know that your St. Patrick's foundation offers you so much potential in your lifelong learning journey.

Mr. Doolan's 1st Class
The summer holidays are nearly upon us and the school year is coming to an end. I have been so lucky to get your class for this year. I loved teaching you all. I know each boy in the class is going to learn loads and have a great time in 2nd class. I hope that the weather stays glorious and that you all have a fantastic summer! I have no doubt that you will all have stories about the lockdown and your summer adventures to tell your classmates and friends when you return in September. I hope you all have a brilliant summer. Remember that it is important to be kind to your family and friends and smile as much as you can!
Here are some learning activities for home for the next 2 weeks. If possible, try to spend 30-
Stay safe,
Sincerely,
Seán Doolan
