Student Piece on School Life
On Tuesday 8th September, twelve of our Leaving Certificate students will travel to Lourdes to take part in the Meath Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes, led by The Most Reverend Dr Tom Deenihan, Bishop of Meath. During the pilgrimage, the students will support the pilgrims, staff and volunteers who make this important diocesan journey each year. They will be accompanied by Mr Devine, Ms O’Brien and Ms Jennifer Reilly, School Secretary. The students would like to sincerely thank everyone who has supported their fundraising efforts over the past number of weeks. Your generosity and encouragement have been greatly appreciated. If you have any petitions or intentions that you would like the students to bring to Lourdes, please leave them at the school office before 4.00 pm on Monday. These intentions will be taken with the group and remembered during their pilgrimage.

As a school community, we wish the students and their accompanying staff a safe and rewarding journey. We are very proud of their willingness to serve others and thank them for the dedication, compassion and generosity they show in upholding the Catholic ethos and values of Eureka Secondary School. We hope that their time in Lourdes will be a meaningful and memorable experience for all involved.
