Happy International Women’s Day to all of our am

Happy International Women’s Day to all of our amazing, bright, talented, intelligent, motivated girls! The girls who represent and achieve so much, all whilst proudly representing St. Peter’s and their communities! 💪 The girls that we are all extremely proud of because of their ambition, their drive, their power, and their spirit! The leaders, the academics, the girls who achieve in extracurricular, the girls who know that their strengths will one day help to improve our world! Every single day, these girls are proving more and more how bright the future will be for all of us, and why gender equality is so important! So here’s to the next generation of strong women- may we see them, may we be them, may we teach them! 👏 #iwd2023 #womeninsport #womeninstem

Last Friday, St. Peter’s was invited by FAI Schools and @uccsport to attend the inaugural launch of the Cork Schools Cup competition, where our Senior Girls’ Soccer Team will be competing for the ‘Denise O’Sullivan Senior Cork Cup’. The evening was attended by many schools in Cork, with FAI Development Officers Alan Bennett and Derek Coughlan also in attendance. St. Peter’s was proudly represented by players Muireann Deasy (C) and Simone Jennings, with the girls’ team being drawn to play Regina Mundi in our opening game of the campaign, with the eventual final due to be held in Turner’s Cross. This Cork Cup Soccer competition helps to further promote and develop female participation in second level sport, while UCC also spoke about new career opportunities and scholarships for women in sport. Best of Luck to the team and Ms. Walsh in the upcoming matches! #stpetersabú #schoolsoccer #corkschoolscup

Today St. Peter’s was represented in rowing at the Munster Indoor Rowing Championships in the Sports Arena, University of Limerick! Building on the success that many of our students have had as members of @passagewestrowingclub, St. Peter’s got off to a cracking start with the Mixed Open A Team (Róisín Manning, Sophie Walsh, Eoin O’Connell, Sam O’Brien and Jay Murphy-Brooker) winning their race 👏🥇 Team B which included Ríonagh Altamirano, Ava Leahy, Molly O’Mahony, Louie O’Brien and Jack Sheehan also put in a strong performance 💪 The Open Girls Team were unlucky to finish 8th despite a good race, whilst the Open Boys Team put in an incredible effort to come 4th in a very competitive race. Another super day of sporting success for St. Peter’s students 👏Thanks to Ms. O’Donovan for accompanying the students on the trip! @rowingireland #stpetersabú #rowingireland #getgoinggetrowing @get_rowing

Congratulations to the Second Year Girls’ Basket

Congratulations to the Second Year Girls’ Basketball Team, who had a fantastic victory against Coláiste an Chraoibhín (Fermoy) last Friday in Parochial Hall 👏 The girls were hungry for a win after a very narrow loss to Youghal the previous week, and the performance didn’t disappoint 💪 Organised in both attack and defense, the team pulled off a stunning 44-11 victory, helped hugely by the high-scoring combination of Francesca Kyamagero and Amelia Szaganska (C). Other brilliant performances from Keira Price, Tia Delea, Alba Lozano, Cara Duggan and Madison Spriggs helped to secure a convincing win for the St. Peter’s girls 👏🏀
Our First Year Girls’ Basketball Team also played against the Fermoy side on Friday 🏀 Despite it only being their second outing as a team, the group showed huge promise and improvement from their debut 💪 Fantastic performances from Rachele Olibanji, Chloe Walsh, Gabriela Neves, Lauren Waters, Wiktoria Watroba and Teresa Parisi helped to keep Fermoy within touching distance, with the game ending with a 26-12 scoreline 👏 A great day all round, and we wish the Second Year Girls the Best of Luck in their next match in Crosshaven this Friday! 💪🔴⚫️ #stpetersabú

Well done to the students in First Year Home Ec, who recently made Red Velvet Cupcakes to celebrate Valentine’s Day! 💕🧁 #homeec #baking

Well done to our First and Second Year Girls’ Ba

Well done to our First and Second Year Girls’ Basketball Teams, who had their first matches of the year at a blitz in Pobalscoil na Tríonóide in Youghal last week! 🏀 Our Second Years began with a very strong performance- superstar contributions from Francesca Kyamagero and Amelia Szaganska (C) helped to lead the team to a 44-42 result in favour of Youghal, the narrowest of margins! 👏 Next up came our rookie First Year team, with many of the girls having never played before. Motivation was high, and the girls put in a fantastic defensive performance which led to a 18-6 win for the Youghal side, which is a huge success given the high-scoring potential of the Youghal players 💪Then it was time for our Second Years to play Carrigtwohill Community College, a team with an exceptional amount of talent. Key performances from Kiera Price, Tia Delea and Cara Duggan helped to keep Carrigtwohill to a 47-19 scoreline, which could have been much greater except for a good defensive performance 👏 The First Years then played Carrigtwohill, and another fantastic performance including great play from Chloe Walsh, Gabriela Neves, Ida Bandos, Muirinn Ahern, Lauren Waters and Rachele Olinabanji led to a 18-6 win for Carrigtwohill, a fantastic scoreline against a very capable team! 👏 The teams will next be playing this Friday and we wish them the Best of Luck! 💪🔴⚫️ #stpetersabú

Thank you to Passage West GAA Club (@passagewestgaaclub) for generously sponsoring our new GAA gear for our school teams 👏⚪️🟢 We are lucky that so many of our students have the opportunities and support to excel in extracurricular activities within their local communities, and that these skills can also be developed here at St. Peter’s💪Hopefully, having a little bit of Passage West with us as we play will bring us even more luck! 🍀 The jerseys have already had their first outing, when they were worn by our U16 Boys’ Football team in Carrigaline during the week! 👏 The next outing for the new gear will be at our upcoming Senior Cork Schools Hurling Championship Final! 🔴⚫️ #stpetersabú #community
