Hard luck to our Junior Girls Soccer team who lost out to Colaiste Choilm in the League Final on penalties ⚽️ The game ended 0-0 after extra time, after a very strong performance from every player on the pitch 💪 A close penalty shootout meant it went to sudden death after our super keeper Sarah O’Keeffe made a fantastic save. 9 of our girls stepped up to take a penalty: Siobhán Deasy, Roisin Killen, Meabh Deasy, Brooke Manley, Sarah O Keeffe, Lynne Chadwick Manning, Sarah O’Mahony and Lucy Finlay. Colaiste Choilm won the penalty shootout 8-7 in the end. We are so proud of our Junior Team and Coach Ms. Lucey after a brilliant season 🔴⚫️ Excited to see what lies ahead for this team next year! 💪 #stpetersabú #girlssoccer #schoolsoccer

Yesterday was a very special day here is St. Peter

Yesterday was a very special day here is St. Peter’s as students, teachers, parents and families gathered to celebrate the Graduation of our Leaving Certificate Class of 2023! 🎓 We are so incredibly proud of this group of students, their work ethic, their kindness, their achievements and their friendships 👏 The theme of yesterday’s ceremony was “Met as strangers, parted as friends”, with artwork by talented Leaving Cert student Alex Linehan 🎨 And we are so delighted that the day, which included a beautiful ceremony led by Fr. Chris, allowed everyone to reflect on the journey that those fresh-faced First Years from 2017 have had to become the fantastic young adults that are leaving us in 2023. As always, we want to say a huge Thank You to Ms. McGovern for organising yesterday’s ceremony, and to all of our Student Volunteers who helped to prepare the refreshments for afterwards 👏 We want to send everyone our best wishes over the weeks ahead, it will most definitely all be worth it! 📚 Very bright futures ahead for all of you ✨ #stpetersabú #graduation #classof2023
