Houses United
Skipping those too-studious Third Years (for now), Mr. Morris’s Magical Mayhem moved on to TYs last week, and Mr. Trenier’s charges fired up their competitive spirit for the smorgasbord of tasks and challenges, building their arithmetic, facial muscle control, and morsel-catching skills! See the highlights below!
MoreDublin à Pied!
Ms. Crowley is a legend amongst the staff for not wanting to miss any class-time (just like the rest of us, of course…). So, if she is going to take her students out of the friendly confines of the French Room, you know it will not be for a mere ‘lark in the park’. Last […]
MoreRugby is Ruff!
Head of Sport Louis Magee welcomed three new teammates to the Junior School Rugby family. Daniel Stack, the Senior School’s inspiring Fitness Coach, joined the coaching ranks, and he brought the same winning mix of charm and professionalism to the pitch-side that he shows everyday in the Fitness Suite, even when the debaters show up. […]

MoreHouse Proud!
Who’s in the house? Well, we know, now! St. Conleth’s relaunched its House System to great buzz, fanfare and fun. Wear your badges proudly: Houses of Sheppard, Kelleher, Crean and Robinson! It started in the hall with a bit of speechifying by Commissioner Gordon, Mr. O’Dulaing and the House Heads and then the dramatic ‘sorting’ […]
MoreArt Matters!
Ms. Mellon’s Third Class Art Pupils get creative in preparation for an upcoming important parental recognition day… we don’t want to ruin the surprise! And Ms. Halpin’s First Years learn some embroidery skills… perhaps enabling them to take on some of the domestic work currently being done by a parental unit!
MoreAnd the Nominees Are…
Alby Crowley and Ollie West! Yes, two Conlethians are in the news for getting nominated for special awards! Our resident Renaissance Man, Sixth Year Ollie West, has been nominated by the Irish Film and Television Academy for ‘Leading Actor’ for his performance in The Sparrow… and just look at the company he is keeping! And […]
MoreAlas! Conlethians Cede the Rostrum
Cicero, the greatest orator of the Late Roman Republic, and perhaps of any age, tested the limits of the power of rhetoric, and he found them a bit closer than he expected: his incendiary verbal condemnation of the supporters of the rebel Catiline wowed his fellow senators, Gallic emissaries and generations of Latin and ‘Speech […]
MorePPU… phew!
Denizens of Greater Ballsbridge and Donnybrook hold their collective breaths every year on the first Friday of March because that is when the carnival comes to town: the Past Pupils Union Annual Dinner is always the liveliest gig in town on that night, and the 2023 version did not disappoint. The members of our PPU, […]
MoreThe PPU are Coming!
Actually, the bad, old days, when the looming Annual Dinner of the Past Pupils Union was viewed by Mr. Kelleher and the other respectable burghers of Ballsbridge like a Viking warship somehow navigating up the Dodder, are far behind us. Now, under the steady guidance of PPU President Peter O’Neill and the omnipotent and omnipresent PPU High Priest […]
