Our Student Council in Presentation College spent last week highlighting the importance of equality in our everyday lives. With the help of our Equality Officer Nothabo in Third Year many students took part in a video displaying messages of equality and what it means for each one of us in our school community. All enjoyed the video on Friday morning.. We were reminded that equality is about realising that we all have differences but taking into account that our rights should be the same.

Ms Kelly and her Third Year Religion class were delighted to be the first school group to have a guided tour and talk from the fabulous volunteers in The Elderflower Garden Club. The students got lots of useful tips and information for their 'Challenge to Change' and 'Global Citizenship' Projects. Formerly a derelict site behind Avoca House in Carlow, the site has been transformed into an eco-garden where the group grows vegetables and flowers. The pesticide-free garden is managed on sustainable and organic principles. Rainwater is collected on-site and includes a solar-powered water feature, bug hotels, and bird boxes.
The Elderflower Garden Club will be selling their plants and hand made crafts at our Parents’ Council Car-Boot Sale on the 5th of May, 12pm -4pm. All support welcome. Click on heading for more photos.

☘️☘️☘️ VIDEO LINK Seachtain na Gaeilge has well and truly kicked off here in The Presentation College, Carlow. A range of fun-filled activities have been planned to get everyone involved in celebrating our culture. A selection of TY students, along with the Irish Department here in Pres have been working very hard to create this video to promote our wonderful language. This video is to promote our students and staff to use their "cúpla focal" and ultimately to "Bí bródúil as!". ☘️☘️☘️ Sixth Years enjoyed Geandáil Gasta' in the library ahead of their béaltrialacha Gaeilge next week. On Friday there will be a Seachtain na Gaeilge no uniform day in aid of the HOPE Foundation.
