Sincere congratulations to graduating class of ‘21 with an amazing array of third level progressions. Our students have achieved places in all of the major universities and colleges in the country and we are very proud of your achievements,
Best wishes from all at Athy College as you spread your wings and explore the new exciting world beyond second level. Athy College welcomes the appointment of Mr Patrick Maguire as the new Deputy Principal. Mr Maguire began with us this September to replace Ms Coffey who was appointed principal with Carlow/Kilkenny ETB. Mr Maguire has strong GAA connections and has been getting to know students and staff over the past weeks. We offer him a very strong Athy Céad Míle Fáilte and hope that he has a very successful career with us.
CAO (Central Applications Office) Round A offers will issue tomorrow morning at 10 am. Once again best of luck to all LC students on getting the first offer of their choice. Students have until next Monday (13th September) to accept the offer. Good luck.
Many congratulations to all of our Leaving Certificate recipients who received their results on Friday. Athy College is very proud of their achievements. The number taking Higher level papers (particularly Maths which gives additional points) has increased greatly over the years and has resulted in extraordinary good results. It was also a great advantage sitting the paper rather than relying on predictive grades and results proved it. Well done to all who took LC and LCA exams in a difficult year and every good wish for the years ahead.
Best wishes to all of our students who will receive their Leaving Certificate results tomorrow.
Results are sent directly to the students tomorrow and the school is sent an overall spreadsheet rather than individual results. Students should not call to the school for their results. We will offer every support through our Guidance service to assist in career and college progression. Appointments should be made with Ms Parry if needed. Once again every good wish to all of our students and to all other students expecting results. Athy College is delighted to be awarded the title of School of Distinction 2021 by Trinity College, Dublin. The award is in recognition of the innovative approach which we have taken both with technology and progressive learning. Well done to a very committed staff and supportive parents and school community.

Just because it's Thursday and near the end of a tough school year the ice cream fairy paid a visit to Athy College and had an ice cream for everyone. Enjoy
As we come near to the end of another school year can I say a very special thank you to parents, students and staff for incredible support over the past 12 months.
With your support we have taken every precaution to prevent having to lose class time because of Covid and so far it has been very successful. Even during lockdown we were able to provide Chromebooks for those who were not in a position to purchase them and full day classes continued on line. From the scary moments of becoming frontline workers facing a class full of students to the additional workload of generating accredited grades for Leaving Certificate students our staff have been amazing. Right to the end of the school year classes have been delivered and all other supports continued. Thank you to the students who adapted, faced the challenge with good spirits and despite the fears and worries got on with the job. Your courage will stand to you in the future. We still have a lot of work to do and the Leaving Certificate students will need your support in the weeks and days ahead as they face examinations and the uncertain landscape ahead. They are brilliant and their light will shine. The final push is to keep the virus at bay for the next few weeks. Sickness or a Covid outbreak could prevent them from sitting exams so we ALL have to do everything to keep them safe. Don’t stop now as we approach the finish line. Thank you. |
