Ceili Mission in St Brendans PS

October 25, 2015

We would like to inform you of the Ceili Mission which will visit the school next week. The mission will be in our school from Monday 28th Sept to Fri 2nd October. The Ceili group will be working in the Parish of Birr and teams from the Ceili Mission will be working in each of the Parish to work with the pupils. This promises to be a fantastic week for all involved with our school. There will be opportunities for parents , teachers and pupils to embrace the mission.
During the mission, which will be based on the Themes of Gods Love, Trust in God and Jesus our Friend, the team of 4 staff will work with the boys in class exploring the themes, leading prayer and song and holding special presentation evenings.

Our School Creed

This is our school
Let peace dwell here,
Let the rooms be full of contentment,
Let love live here
Love of one another
Love of mankind
Love of life itself,
And love of God.
Let us remember
That, as many hands build a house
So many hearts make a school
