We are always on the lookout for boys that show care and concerns for their fellow students and the staff, who step up to the mark by being helpful in class and in the yard and who work hard in school. Every week boys are selected that have displayed these qualities in a particular way.

The parents of these boys receive a phone call from Mr. Terry or Mr. Galvin to let them know that their son has earned this special award. The boys also receive a homework pass and a small prize.

Mr. Galvin is recruiting boys to join the school band. To help encourage the boys to get involved in music, we had performances from some of our musicians.

Mr. McKeon’s choir are rehearsing for the upcoming Confirmation Ceremonies and any boys that would like to join the choir to sing or play an instrument are welcome.
