FIFTH YEAR STUDENTS PAINT A MASTERPIECE!
Congratulations to the three 5th year art students who did such a terrific job on the mural
they painted on the climbing wall for the 18th Dublin (Santry) Scout Group Den. Mr. Wood,
the scout leader was so impressed by the work of Gavin Redmond, Mark McDonald and Aaron
Kennedy that he presented them with a special scout certificate and a gift voucher.
Well-done lads!

You're hired...
The applicants for the school's video interviews looked just like those who had walked off
the set of the TV series, The Apprentice.
Dressed immaculately and thoroughly prepared for interviews, ranging from plumber to
psychologist, all candidates performed extraordinarily well. If Sir Alan Sugar was in the chair
he would have said... ...you're hired.
Photo shows the interviews putting the applicant through his paces during the recent
video interviews.
