St. Mary's aims to develop each pupil to their full potential. To help achieve this we encourage pupils to participate in a wide range of social, sporting and cultural events during the academic year. These include basketball leagues, sports clubs, soccer tournaments, debating teams, school choir, Book Club, Film Club, Book Week, Home Economics Leadership Team, Young Scientist Competition, Cookery Competitions, Sports Student of the Year, School tours, Musicals, Student of the Year and Art Competitions.
Outings:
Field trips in History, Geography and Science are now an integral part of the Junior Cycle Course. In addition, visits to the National Concert Hall, Theatre or Cinema will be arranged.
Foreign Travel:
School Tours abroad take place during the Easter holidays or February Mid-term break.
Fundraising:
As a school founded on the principle of 'Caritas' or charity, we encourage our students to engage with local and national charities. We run events each year to support the local Meals on Wheels, St Vincent de Paul, Focus Ireland, Childline and Pieta House, among others.
