A special welcome to new Choir Conductor Ciara Hamilton. Ciara will be taking over the Holy Family School Deaf Choir from Shirley Higgins.
Shirley is the original founder of the Holy Family Deaf Choir. We would like to thank Shirley and Lorraine for all the amazing work that they has done with the School Choir over the years, such as the Emmanuel, Dublin Castle, Dublin Culture Connects, Late Late Toy Show, The Saturday Night Live Show, 4 Schools and 1 Language, The Beethoven Fest in Bonn Germany, The Huawei Conference in Brussels and so much more. Ciara is one of the first members of the Holy Family Deaf Choir. She will have big shoes to fill in! but with Shirley’s support and guidance Ciara will do a fantastic job. As these photos/videos show, she is already off to a promising start. Watch this space…..

Congratulations to all our students who have received an award for their enthusiastic participation in Maths Week. The awards were giving out to the students who tried their best. Their perseverance and persistent paid off as they solved some of the complex puzzles. It was amazing to see students using Maths to create a Celtic knot, to solve some puzzling cryptic puzzles, to arrive at a particular destination without turning left (That was a tricky one!), and to have fun in doing not one but two Maths Trails! While every student particpated and had fun on Maths Day, our teachers felt that these 8 students deserved an award for their achievements on Maths Day. Well done to all.
