Our Ember Team attended an Ember Renewal Day in St. Patrick's College Campus, DCU on Thursday 15th January.

This day serves as an opportunity for Ember teams from each school to share their achievements to date and to be provided with fresh ideas for the rest of the year ahead.

It also gives students a chance to renew friendships which were made during their Ember training in Ovoca Manor and meet the Teams who were commissioned in their School.

Our students presented to the group about their work and achievements that they have made in our school so far and their plans for the rest of the year.

The day ended with a mass celebration in St. Patrick's College Campus church celebrated by Bishop Paul Dempsey, in which Aoibheann from our Ember team led in the first reading.
