🏊♀️National Aquatic Centre Success! 🏊🏼♀️
A huge congratulations to Amelia and Clara O’Toole, who represented Sacred Heart PS at the National Aquatic Centre in Dublin last weekend.
We are incredibly proud of both girls for their outstanding performances on such a big stage! 👏
Both swimmers achieved personal bests in all of their races, showing fantastic dedication, determination and talent.
🌟 Clara narrowly missed out on a place in the 50m breaststroke final by just 0.1 seconds — an incredible achievement in such a highly competitive event!
🌟 Amelia showed amazing ability and consistency across strokes and in particular her (Individual medley).
These are exceptional results, and both girls represented our school with pride, positivity and sportsmanship.
Well done, Amelia and Clara — the entire Sacred Heart school community is so proud of you! 👏🏅
🐣 Student Council Easter Egg Poster Competition 🐣
A huge well done to all the boys and girls who took part in this year’s Easter Egg Poster Competition! The creativity, colour and effort put into every egg was absolutely fantastic. 🌈 ✨
Our Student Council had the very tricky job of choosing a winner from each class — and they said it was one of the hardest decisions yet because the standard was so incredibly high!
At assembly, the Student Council thanked everyone for entering and for making the competition such a fun and exciting whole‑school event. As a little Easter treat, every pupil went home yesterday with a
Cadbury’s Creme Egg kindly handed out by the Student Council Committee. 🥚💜
Our class winners are listed below — a huge congratulations to each of you! 🎉🏆

🌟Principal's Award for Respect 🌟
Also at yesterdays celebration assembly we were delighted to celebrate four wonderful pupils who have shown exceptional respect in our school community.
Each of these children lives out our Sacred Heart vision and motto every day — We grow together, we try our best, we care deeply and we shine bright. ✨
💛 Alice Ruddy – Primary 1 - missing from photo
Alice shows beautiful manners every single day. She is always ready to help, and her thoughtful habit of holding the door open for adults — and even for Mr Kelly! — is a small gesture that makes a big difference. What a respectful and caring little girl.
💛 Rhys Lane – Primary 4
Rhys shows incredible gratitude and respect.
After every Cross Country Running After‑School Club, he never forgets to say “thank you.” His appreciation and kindness shines through in everything he does.
💛 Mallaidh Mai Mullan – Primary 4
Mallaidh Mai shows deep respect for her friends and teachers. She wears her heart on her sleeve, cares so sincerely for others, and embodies kindness and thoughtfulness every day in school.
💛 Cillian McGorry – Primary 5
Cillian is an all‑round great lad who truly lives out our school vision. Nothing is ever a bother — he approaches everything with positivity, helpfulness and a respectful attitude. A fantastic role model for others.
A huge well done to Alice, Rhys, Mallaidh Mai and Cillian. We are so proud of the way you treat others and the example you set for our whole school. 🌟
🌟Kindness Award in SHPS🌟
At yesterdays celebration assembly we were delighted to present our monthly Kindness Award, kindly sponsored by Pizzarack in Pomeroy to Eva Carlin in Primary 6. 🙌🏻😃
Eva truly lives out our school motto of respecting others and choosing kindness every single day. She is a shining example of what it means to put others first — always thoughtful, always polite and always ready to lend a hand.🌟
Her exceptional manners, her willingness to try her best in everything she does, and her caring nature make her a real role model for all pupils in Sacred Heart. Eva, you are an all‑round great girl and we are so proud of you! ✨
A huge well done from all of us — keep being the wonderful, kind person you are. 😃
And a special thank‑you to PizzaRack, Pomeroy, for their ongoing support in helping us celebrate the values that make our school community so special. 🍕

🌟P2/3 Easter Assembly 🌟
A huge well done to our wonderful P2/3 class who led our school assembly on Wednesday morning!
The children retold the Easter story with such confidence, reminding us all of the hope and joy that comes with Jesus’ resurrection.🌟
A special highlight was their beautiful performance of “Here Comes the Sun” — cleverly reimagined as “Here Comes the Son” to celebrate the risen Jesus. ☀️✝️
Their singing, actions, and big smiles lit up the hall and brought a lovely message of new beginnings as we head into Easter. 🐣
We are so proud of each and every one of them! 💛
Maith sibh, boys and girls! 🌼
