St Patricks Day 2025

St Patrick’s Day parade this year was something to cherish with so many colourful and vibrant entries.

The theme for this year’s St Patricks parade celebrated Irish Folklore “Béaloideas”.

As part of our parade entry, the pupils made a huge effort and dressed up as characters from different Irish stories and folklore. Our slogan was “Celebrating Irish Folklore”. The pupils wore colourful masks adn costumes depicting stories like the story of Cúchulainn, Leprechauns, the Children of Lir and the Salmon of Knowledge. As well as this, our pupils learned a dance routine to the song “Galway Girl” by Ed Shearan. It was an amazing spectacle and huge thanks must go to Miss Ambrose for her help with the routine and of course, our fantastic pupils who performed it so well on the day.

Well done to all pupils and staff who made this such a special day.

Our gallery displays a snapshot of pictures from our school’s display in the St Patrick Day parade in Clonakilty.
