Our Christmas raffle will be held on Tue, Dec 22nd. This annual event is a great close to the year. The girls all in their Santa hats and Christmas jumpers love it.

This year thanks to our parent volunteers we have a bumper crop of prizes donated by local business and the parent body.

iPad mini (PFH)
Afternoon tea at The Kingsley
Spa voucher for Aquaspa
Horse riding lessons
Hamper from O’Reillys chemist
Lunch at The Bishopstown bar
Lunch at The Viaduct
Donations from Ramen, Centra, the ESB, Fox Flowers, The Rendezvous and many more.

Tickets cost 2E each or 3 for 5E and are selling fast. They will be on sale at the school concerts and extra books are available from the office.

We have already spent 1000E on new yard games this year.

With your continued support we can continue turning the yard into a brighter and better playground for St Catherine’s girls.

Happy Christmas,

St Catherine’s Parents Association

Thank you all for sending in your spare one and two cent coins. The crate was too heavy to carry. We are in the process of counting and bagging it.

If you find any more lying around at home please bring it in to the office where it will be gratefully received.

We will report the final amount raised in due course.
