Athletics Track and Field Championships in Navan
A huge congratulations to all of the athletes who participated in the Track and Field Championships in Navan. We are beyond proud of the effort that was put in by all participants especially on such a hot day.
They competed in 60m, 100m, 600m, 800m, relays, ball throw and long jump. We won silver in the U11 boys 60m. We won silver in the U13 boys 100m. There was a few who were just pipped to a medal position across all events.
They showed grit, determination and represented St. Mary’s with pride. We have a lot of talented athletes in our midst and we look forward to continuing our training next year. Bring on the next Championships!
A big thank you to Ms. Muldoon, Ms. McDonnell and Ms. Jameson for preparing the children so well and allowing coaches affording the children the opportunity to participate in an event like this. Thanks also to the teachers and support staff who helped out on the day!

6th class retreat
6th class retreat
Our three 6th classes had a retreat day that was organized by the parish. It was a memorable experience for the pupils, and we extend heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in making it happen. The day was filled with laughter, learning, and meaningful connections, leaving a lasting impact on our pupils’ spiritual growth.
Nature Boxes
We have set up nature boxes around its grounds to help birds, bats, butterflies, and insects find cozy spots to build their nests. These boxes include bird houses, bat houses, insect hotels, and even a house for ladybirds. They provide a safe and welcoming space for these creatures. The bird houses attract different kinds of birds, while the bat houses offer a comfy place for bats to rest. The insect hotel gives insects a cool place to stay, and the ladybird house is a special spot just for ladybirds. St. Mary’s Primary School wants to protect nature and teach students about the important role these animals play in our world.
