St. Nathy’s Student Council – Team building trip to Castlebar Bowling alley.

Wednesday last St. Nathy's Student Council enjoyed a memorable outing to strengthen their bond and highlight the crucial role they hold in school. The day kicked off with a team building trip to Castlebar bowling alley, under the watchful eye of Ms. O’Connor and Mr. Daly.  

The Student Council is the voice of the student body and actively advocates on their behalf. It plays a vital role in fostering a sense of community and empowers students to actively contribute to the school's environment. The bowling outing not only provided a break from routine but also allowed the student leaders to reflect on the responsibilities and duties they shoulder as part of the council. The Council then held a post trip meeting in the College to attend to more immediate matters and address issues. This post-outing session allowed them to seamlessly transition from leisure to duty. 

The bowling trip was more than just a fun outing for our Council. It was a valuable experience that underscored the importance of teamwork, camaraderie, and effective communication within the council. As these young leaders continue to navigate the challenges of student advocacy, their shared experiences outside the confines of the school grounds will undoubtedly contribute to a stronger, more resilient Student Council, ready to face the responsibilities and opportunities that lie ahead. We thank them for all their work.

TY Fun Day Out

It was a damp, dark and very early morning as they boarded the bus in Ballaghderreen, pillows and blankets in hand determined to get some shut eye as they made their way to Dublin. While some students were making their way to Gifted Craft Fair in the RDS the remaining TY’s had a day of fun activities ahead.


The day kicked off with adventure mini golf. In teams of five they set off, some more competitive than others but all having fun.
Before the ice skating there was an opportunity to avail of some downtime in Dundrum shopping centre and get a head start on some Christmas shopping.


Then it was onto the ice-skating where we were joined by the students who made their way over from the RDS
Skates donned and they were ready for the off. It was a rocky start with many clinging to the sides for dear life. There were plenty of slips and falls but as the minutes ticked by the grew in confidence and by the time the hour was up the penguins were set aside as the students were gliding around the ice. Apart from a few bruises all made it off in one piece!

Time allowed for a quick bite to eat and a hot chocolate to warm up before boarding the bus and making the long trek back to the west.

A very enjoyable day was had by all.

Christmas Jumper Day 2023

Last Friday 8th December, we celebrated our annual Christmas Jumper Day, a cherished tradition that brings festive cheer throughout the corridors and classrooms. There was great excitement as everyone donned their most colorful and vibrant jumpers. The normal uniform regulations were dropped (just for one day!) as everyone showcased their creativity and Christmas spirit. 

As the photos below show, the corridors came alive with a kaleidoscope of patterns and colours, from snowflakes and reindeer to Santas and Christmas trees. Well done to Mr. O’ Suilleabhain and his team who raised much needed funds for our local branch of St. Vincent de Paul.

Congratulations to Tori Duffy

Massive congratulations to second year student Tori Duffy who has been selected for the inaugural League of Ireland Mayo FC U17 Womens' squad. She is one of the youngest members of the squad and has been one of our most dedicated players in school since soccer came back to St. Nathy’s. We are incredibly proud of her achievement as she signs her official contract in the coming weeks. Here’s hoping it’s the first step in her professional journey for club and maybe country in the future.

Success for U15 Girls’ Soccer team

Well done and congratulations to the U15 Girls' soccer team on their recent win over Claregalway. Extremely tough opposition in very cold and blinding conditions saw the girls go 1-0 down just before half time. However, shortly after the restart the girls applied more pressure and deservedly levelled the game with a goal from Tori Duffy. As time went on in the second half the girls took more control of the game with another goal scored by Tori Duffy. Although, it must be said that even though the last seven or eight minutes were nervy, the defence held its own and grounded out the win for a 2-1 victory which was well earned. Lots of new faces in this squad from the first year team who won the Connacht title last year along with three players who are still U15. The squad has an exciting season ahead! 💚🤍
