Best of luck to our Junior team who play Ballinrobe in the Colleran Cup Junior 'A' final in Bekan at 12:30 this Thursday. The team are coached by Mr. Curran and Mr. Guilfoyle.
Read MoreThird place, first-class achievement! It was not to be for our incredibly talented junior basketball team as they were defeated in their All-Ireland semi-final by a strong and experienced Heywood Community School, Co. Laois, who went on to win the final. The girls fought so bravely, led by their captain Rebecca Brett, and put it up to their opponents with everything they had. They can have no regrets and should be super proud of their achievement in reaching the last 4 of the B Division League. What makes this achievement more spectacular is 11 out of 12 of these players have only started playing basketball in their first year of school in St. Nathy's, and have blown teams away made up of club basketball players on their way to the semi finals. We are so proud of their achievements, and this will be a wonderful learning experience for all involved. Onwards and upwards! Thanks to Mr. Mulderrig and support from Niall Freeman and TY students Ruth Brett and Ava McGreal for coaching the girls throughout the year. A special thanks to all parents and supporters who travelled to Tallaght to support the girls.

On Tuesday April 23rd, Jenna Walsh from the Mayo Mental Health Association visited our school and met with all our Second-Year students. She gave an excellent presentation to our students about Mental Health, and she delivered the BREATHE Programme to them.
This Programme is an evidence based educational talk to promote and facilitate mental health awareness and well-being for students in an interactive format.
What does Breathe cover?
• What Mayo Mental Health Association do.
• What is mental health (general overview).
• Risk & protective factors in relation to maintaining a mentally healthy lifestyle
• How to support someone who may be experiencing a mental health difficulty.
• Language & influence we have on others.
The talk also focuses on the role that social media plays in our lives and how it can impact our mental health.
We would like to thank Jennna and the Mayo Mental Health Association for facilitating this presentation for our students and for their continued support to St.Nathy’s College over many years.
