A big thank you to the Mother’s Union Athy, who kindly donated 4 bibles to the school, one for each classroom. We invited the representatives of the Mother’s Union to our assembly on Wed 15th of September. They got a tour of the classrooms and really enjoyed their visit. During the assembly we had a collection for St. Brigid’s Hospice in Kildare. Many thanks to all who gave kindly.
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.
