After our Service everyone was treated to a wonderful spread of food in the Parish Centre. From here it was on to the Rugby Club for the sports part of the Festival. We competed very well in all our races and managed to secure the cup for being overall winners of the event. Well done to all those who took part on the day. A special thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and expertise to make the day such a success.
Athy Model School is a primary school under the patronage of the Department of Education, with a Church of Ireland ethos. We endeavour to enable each child to acquire a set of moral values based on the ethos of the school.
We encourage parents and children to involve themselves in the activities of both the Church of Ireland community and the wider community. However, we have due recognition of all other beliefs and cultures and we respect cultural and religious diversity.
