Catholic Schools Week

January 23, 2026

We were honoured to welcome the St. Carlo Acutis Exhibition and a 1st class relic to De La Salle College. All 1st and 5th year students had the opportunity to visit and share in this meaningful and reflective experience of faith modern witness and Eucharistic devotion.
A huge well done to the Faith & Ethos Group Shea Mellin, Oisín Ó Maoileoin, James Gorham and Cian Halpin who worked brilliantly with Ms Mc Hale in organising and running the event. Your leadership, commitment and reverence made the experience truly special for all involved. 
A proud moment for our school community.

As part of Catholic Schools Week, our 2nd year students attended SEINN in the Redeemer Church.

Students took part in the drumming introduction, creating a vibrant and engaging atmosphere.
A special well done to Shea Mellin, Cian Halpin, Oisín Ó Maoileoin and Dillon Sharkey, who performed a powerful dramatisation on the importance of faith and God in our everyday, normal lives.
It was a truly uplifting and meaningful experience for all involved. 

The theme for the final day of Catholic Schools Week was Joy and Mission.
To mark the occasion, staff were treated to some well-deserved treats as a small recognition of how they live out the Lasallian principles and demonstrate holiness in their classrooms and along the corridors every day.
It was a lovely opportunity to pause, share a moment of joy together, and celebrate the spirit and mission that underpin our school community.
