"WE'LL ANSWER IRELAND'S CALL!"

On Friday February 1st First Year and Second Year students geared up for the start of Rugby's Six Nations Tournament in great style!

The school were delighted to be presented with tickets for Ireland's opening Women's Six Nations clash versus England in Energia Park in Donnybrook.

Leinster Rugby representatives Stephen Costelloe and Nicole Purdom arrived into the school on Friday morning with the tickets to be greeted with great fanfare by the students. All dressed in green, the students gave rousing renditions of Amhran na bhFiann and Ireland's Call, accompanied by Mr Burke and Mr Fennell. You can hear our wonderful singing over on our twitter page!

Later that afternoon a bus collected the students and teachers and headed out to Donnybrook. The students were in great voice supporting Ireland, even if the result didn't exactly go our way. But everybody had a fantastic time and we it was great to see the students so involved. Looking forward now to Ireland's next match. Big thanks to Stephen, Nicole and Leinster Rugby.
