Mercy Leaders

The Mercy leaders continue to meet every Tuesday in the Prayer Room, from 1.25 - 1.40 p.m. In recent weeks there has been a focus on praying for peace and the health and wellbeing of all our school community. They Mercy Leaders were joined by several of this year’s JPII leaders for prayer and treats on the final Tuesday before midterm.

In preparation for a presentation at the Carlow RE teachers’ seminar on Thurs., October 23rd, Katelyn Donegan (3B), Aimee Hughes (5C) and Eliseba Tomy Thomas (6K, Deputy Head Girl) were video interviewed. They explained how being a Mercy leader had enriched their faith, augmented the empathy they have for others and encouraged them to support works of mercy, such as ‘Mary’s Meals’. T

he annual Mary's Meals fundraiser will begin in December and our school will be visited by Patricia Friel on December 8th , when she will speak to each year group.

The support of our students and staff for this wonderful cause, as always, is greatly appreciated.
