Girls' HockeyThe Junior and Senior 1 Girls' hockey teams enjoyed a wonderful day of sport and fun at Newtown School in Waterford last week. Science ClubPupils attending Science Club on Monday spent the hour dissecting rats. They felt that they had gained a better understanding of anatomy and physiology having had such hands-on experience. Weather AlertThe High School remained closed on Thursday 1 and Friday 2 March due to a Status Red weather warning issued by Met Eireann. As a result, the planned Form 1 and 2 Rugby tours to Cork and Belfast have been cancelled. Unfortunately Saturday's Wesley College Inter-schools Music Competition has also been cancelled but we look forward to hearing The High School Orchestra perform at the Feis Ceoil on 20 March.
