St Patrick’s Summer Party 2025: A Night to Remember!
Despite the cloudy skies overhead, the grounds of St Patrick’s were bursting with colour, laughter, and excitement at our annual summer party last night. The atmosphere was electric, and the craic was mighty as we gathered to celebrate the end of another fantastic school year.
From sizzling hot dogs to sweet treats at the tuck shop, there was something for everyone to enjoy. The ever-popular penalty kick competition drew a crowd, but it was the adorable animals from Kidzfarm that truly stole the show with the children.
A special shout-out to our local Vikings, who brought history to life with a thrilling mini battle and a fascinating display of artefacts — the swords and shields were especially popular! The mini games were a hit too, with intense concentration on young faces aiming for bullseyes and buckets. Even the grown-ups got competitive at the bottle toss, proving that fun knows no age!

It was heartwarming to see our school community come together, sharing laughs and making memories.
