Our Minor A Team also enjoyed an excellent Leinster campaign, reaching the Semi Final before coming up against a very strong Mount Anville side.

The excitement isn’t over yet for tennis — our Minor C Team still have everything to play for as they head into their Leinster Semi Final! Best of luck to the team as they continue their fantastic run.

We are delighted to share some fantastic news from our Art Department.

Congratulations to Jessa Jukic (2 Ward), who has won First Place in Category B (ages 14–15) at the prestigious Texaco Children’s Art Competition. Jessa’s winning entry is a stunning coloured‑pencil portrait of her sister Jolié, beautifully titled “I Want to Be Under the Sea.”

This is a remarkable achievement and a testament to Jessa’s dedication and talent. She spent many hours carefully working on the portrait, demonstrating outstanding skill and attention to detail.

Last Tuesday, April 21st, Jessa attended a media reception with her family at the Herbert Park Hotel, where prize winners were announced to the press. Professional photographs from the event were taken and are shared below with kind permission from Jessa’s family.

Jessa will also attend the official awards ceremony at Druids Glen Hotel on May 27th to celebrate her success.

As part of her achievement, Jessa has received a €450 first prize along with €100 worth of art materials.

Well done, Jessa — we are extremely proud of you and look forward to seeing more of your wonderful artwork in the future! ️

Well done to all our students who have been submitting coursework (projects) across a wide range of subjects, as well as completing orals and practical exams over the past month. It has been an exhausting time, but all the hard work will be worth it.

Very best of luck over the coming weeks as you continue to prepare for your Junior Cycle and Leaving Certificate exams. 

Student Wellbeing Team

This outstanding team—Yilin Wu, Tanya Mohanty, Grace O’Callaghan, Yashvi Rajesh Kannan, Sarah O’Callaghan, and Darcey Lavin—have shown extraordinary dedication and determination throughout the year. Their hard work has paid off in spectacular fashion, securing a clean sweep of all three major titles: Dublin, Leinster, and now the National Championship.

Behind this success lies countless hours of training, commitment, and teamwork. The effort these girls have put in, alongside the guidance and support of their fantastic coach Ray, has been nothing short of inspiring—and they truly deserve every bit of their success and those gold medals.

We look forward to celebrating this remarkable achievement properly in school next term. From all the staff and students in Foxrock, a massive well done to an exceptional group of athletes!

• Aoife May (2nd Year) played with the Leinster U16 team as they travelled to The Hague.
• Anna Forde (2nd Year) was part of the Irish U16 squad who travelled to Germany, where she scored her first international goal.
• Siobhán Emerson (TY) travelled with the Irish U18 squad to France.

We are incredibly proud of all three girls for their dedication and achievements!

The camp welcomed students from a variety of schools, all of whom brought great enthusiasm, teamwork, and commitment to each session. It was wonderful to see skills developing and confidence growing throughout the week.

A special thank you to our coaches for their time, expertise, and encouragement, which made the experience so positive for all involved.

Well done to everyone who took part, it was a fantastic few days on the pitch!

We also want to wish Audrey good luck for the finals of the FAS Public Speaking Competition in Dunshaughlin on Tuesday evening.
