Well done to teachers and students who were involved in organising many beneficial visits in and out and enterprising activities. Thanks to all visitors in and for the companies for facilitating visits out. These activities help students develop many skills such as organisational, interpersonal and enterprising skills. Many fundraising activities were also organised for worthy causes such as Vincent de Paul and Focus Ireland. Thanks to everyone for their support, it was much appreciated.
