Annual 6th year Retreat Sleepover: 21 December 2017

The 6th years had their Retreat Sleepover on Thursday 21 December after their Christmas tests. They had a busy night. After their pizza and Father William's departure, the students prepared 'mother and baby' hospital bags, under the guidance of Ms Crowley, Ms Ní Mhuineacháin and Ms A O'Neill. Everybody was delighted that Ms Cassidy dropped in for a quick visit during the night, along with Ms Fields, Mr Beirne and Mrs Arthurs. After breakfast, Ms Crowley and some students went to the Capuchin Day Centre where Father Seán happily accepted the Manor House donations. These included food hampers (provided by students in all years), underwear and socks (provided by the 5th years), the 'mother and baby' bags (from the 6th years) and the money collected during the Christmas Hat and Jumper day (€1180). Well done to everyone!

TY students attend Mass in Knock: 11 May 2018

This year marks the 5th Anniversary of the passing of Donal Walsh. The Kerry teenager touched many lives, with his powerful message ‘Live Life’! The Youth Ministry at Knock planned a special day on 11 May for TYs and 5th Year students to celebrate Donal's life and his message. The day offered a variety of events for students, followed by a very special Mass in the Basilica at 1.30pm. A group of Manor House TY students accompanied by Ms Fields, Ms Crowley and Ms Grace participated in this inspiring event, joining students and teachers from all over Ireland to reflect on what it means to 'Live Life'.
