School Amalgamation

The patron, management, staff, parents and pupils have all agreed that it is in the best interests of our school to amalgamate with St Louise’s Senior School in January 2012. As Sr. Justine is retiring after 18 years of hard work in the senior school, Mrs. Crowley will be taking over as principal of the new bigger school from January next. We are all looking forward to it.
