Happy New Year

Athy College wish all students and their families a very Happy and Peaceful New Year

Christmas ‘Goal Mile’ Athy.

Athy College hosted their first ‘Goal Mile’ on Wednesday 21^st Dec 2011 on their all weather pitch. The event was attended by staff and students. A large turnout attended with all classes represented. Students and staff had the option of walking the mile on the tarmac path around the perimeter of the pitch or running the mile around the pitch edges, with 5 laps representing a mile. The event this year was organised on a trial basis to explore the feasibility of an all school campus event next Christmas 2012. Many thanks to all who attended and to the helpers on the day.

Campus Together

Staff from all of the schools on campus got together in Athy College on Dec 8th to take part in a collaborative exercise in Teams Games Tournament.  With a cummulative staff of over 80 between an Gaelscoil, Model School, St Patrick's and Athy College the gathering gave everybody the opportunity to get to know one another and is hopefully the first of many such events.
