Term 2- Recognition and Rewards for 2nd Years
As another term comes to a close, it is time to recognise and reward those in 2nd Year who displayed excellent dedication on a daily basis in St. Nathy’s.
It is not an easy feat to come in every day, in full uniform, with all homework done, work hard in lessons and for CBAs and 10 Week Assessments, all whilst showing kindness, support and respect to their peers and staff within the school.
Firstly, we celebrate our ‘Roll Model’ students from each tutor group. Each was nominated by their tutor for displaying many, or all, of the qualities mentioned above. Each student received money towards a Breakfast Roll, Chicken Fillet Roll or to do as they pleased with their reward. So well done to the following students:
· 2A – Zain Clancy and Megan O’ Gara
· 2B – Leah Cogan and Ella Hunt
· 2C – Thomas Moran and Ben Kearney
· 2D – Grace Bowens and Isabel Philips
· 2E – Aine O’ Brien and Sean Roddy
Next, we reward the tutor group with the Least Amount of Negative Points as a group out of all of 2nd Year. This was a very close contest between the top three with only 2 points separating all three which is a fantastic achievement. It goes to show that fine margins mean a lot on a daily basis and the groups were battling it out over the past 7 weeks to support each other. However, there can only be one winner and that winning tutor group is….Mr Dolan’s 2D Group. Well done everyone, a fantastic achievement! They enjoyed the spoil’s of war with some treats for their efforts!
Last but not least we reward the tutor group with the Most Amount of Positive Points as a group from the year group. Once again, this was a very tight race up until today. Only 14 points separated all five tutor groups. This is why it is so important to ensure each and every student does what they can during the term to try and earn those +4 points each term as, as harsh as it may seem, one slip up could cost your group the prestigious title and reward! So, for this term, the winning tutor group for Most Positive Points is…Ms Conlon’s 2B Group. Well done to you too and enjoy the well deserved treats!
Last but certainly not least, thank you to all the 2nd Year Tutors for the daily valiant efforts in ensuring their group follow protocol but more importantly, look after their well-being and enjoyment in school which can sometimes bring pressures of its own. The students and I are very lucky to have Mr Hennigan, Ms Conlon, Ms Scally, Mr Dolan and Ms McHale so thank you once again very much.
All that is left is to say Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Stay safe and have fun with friends and loved ones.
Mr. Brennan – Year Head 2nd Year
