BCS Goes Dancing
Last Friday we held a very successful BCS goes Dancing show in the School Hall. This year we had students from all years who volunteered or were volunteered to dance as couples and show us the marvelous dancing talents that they had.
Over the last few weeks there was intense rehearsals going on behind the scenes and on the day the couples did not disappoint us the audience. It was a most entertaining show from beginning to end.
We would like to thank all the couples who got on-board this venture, to the TY students who worked on various organising committees to get this event up and running and to those who decorated and organised the hall – it created a wonderful atmosphere.
Our judges on the day were special guests The Two Johnnies and Mr Ring who well fitted the shoes of Bruno, Craig and Len!
Our MC Mr Foley kept us entertained in between each act and Jeff Howard, the choir and our trad musicians kept the show going during the interval. After judges votes and audience votes were cast the big moment of announcing the third, second and overall winning couple came with Aoibhe O Donoghue and James Clancy and their Hip Hop style routine emerging as the winners. Congratulations to all couples involved.
A huge thanks must also go to Ms Breen and Ms Nikki O Connor for without their drive and commitment to this the event it would not have taken place. Roll on next year!!
Fundraising Event
Well done to the LCA class and TY students who were involved in a fundraising breakfast last Thursday with the help of the Home Economics Dept. The monies from the event go to St Vincent de Paul and The Lions Club.

Lyrics on the Lap
Well done to the committee who set up an initiative whereby students were asked to come up with their favourite memory or part of Christmas. These then formed part of the Lyrics boards as one goes along the school corridors.

Nativity Event
Best of luck to students who are involved in the Nativity event this Thursday, reminding us all in the midst of all the hustle and bustle of this busy time what the true meaning of Christmas is.
