community support & christmas jumper day 2018
On June 15th of this year, a parent in our school, Declan Naughton, was participating in a charity cycle for Alzheimer’s Society of Ireland with his colleagues at KBC Bank. Tragically, he was involved in an accident and his injuries have left him paralysed. He is currently learning how to adapt to his new reality as a wheelchair user in the National Rehabilitation Centre, Dun Laoghaire. Many of you may know Declan from his involvement with Celbridge GAA where he is a football coach/mentor and fundraiser. Considerable work needs to be carried out on his house before Declan can return home. His friends and colleagues have rallied together to set up a GoFundMe page, Doing This for Declan.

Businesses and clubs in the local community are supporting this initiative, and Scoil Mochua is keen to take an active role in supporting Declan and his wife Louise.
This year, all funds from our Christmas Jumper Day, Friday 14th December
will be donated to this cause.
We hope to get other schools on board too, and have a Celbridge Christmas Jumper Day!

Welcome to our school website. We are very proud of it and we hope you enjoy your virtual tour of the school. Our parents are our partners in education and their ongoing support helps to make Scoil Mochua the thriving, busy, happy school that it is. First and foremost, the website was designed as a window for our parents into our school and into classroom life. We want to share classroom stories and school life with our partners in education. We feel that it is important to share these precious moments from the children’s school life - we know they generate smiles and warm the heart! School life for our children is so varied, and the children are exposed to so many exciting learning opportunities. We love to capture these on camera and post them on the website so that families can chat about them at home.

Of course, the website also attracts visits from grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends. We are delighted and proud to welcome all of you. Above all else in our school, we value the children’s happiness and their enjoyment of learning. Their energy, inquisitiveness and level of engagement in learning never ceases to amaze us. I hope some of this jumps off the pages as you browse through the photographs of class activities and school events.
For those of you who are history buffs, or are simply interested in learning more about Celbridge, you will enjoy reading about the history of Celbridge on the website. Our lovely village is steeped in history – you will be amazed!
And, of course, the website is an excellent communication platform. Read some of our policies, the school calendar, information on our super Parents’ Association, useful educational links to enhance your child’s learning, details on school sporting events – it’s all there. You can also follow us on Twitter @scoilmochua for updates on the wide variety of learning that happens in Scoil Mochua.
Happy Browsing!
Kind Regards,
Catherine Carragher, Principal.
